He brought 10 litres of Mazda FL22 coolant and took it straight back because it had leaked all over his van AND other people's parcels. He was not happy. If the supplier insists on waiting for it to be returned before they send more, that'll be the last they see of my money in future!

Update: they hsve no more in stock. Oh well, might as well buy the £££ Suzuki stuff locally, since Mazda coolant cosrs a fortune from the main dealer (I have two Mazdas). At least the Suzuki stuff is the same colour as what's in there.

The throttle bodies look nice and smooth. I will be interested to know if they make a difference to performance. They look like 60mm versus the original 45-50mm. Not sure if you will be changing anything else at the same time?

A rear light wiring loom; one rear light lens was cracked, so water had got in and rusted out the stop/tail bulbholder.  It's been patched up with a bulbholder salvaged from the scrapyard lens (which didn't come with the whole loom) and my messy soldering!

Cost of salvage lens: £20.  Cost of new loom: £30!

Today they delivered
The other end to those rather nice throttle bodies, the fart end.
I was concerned the strange underload "ticking" noise was the diff or gearbox finally giving up with all the towing, but happy to say it's a few pin holes around the CAT welding making the noise.
Cheap enough, can't complain about that.
 
Not as exciting, but it is a shiny thing.

Smart seats. Did you get some sub-frames or are you making them?
