LOL. Think of me.
Clutch went last Friday
Brake caliper needed replacing
Brakes are being a pig to bleed
Now I've got a knocking on the front.

My MR2 budget is looking decidedly pinched! Damn thing is going if it likes it or not.

[tonigmr2]

Is there a satnav code someone could post up?

Oh yeah it always rains on UK websites, they pretend the rest of Europe is like us, I forgot.

Well, the trip is going well so far, we are looking forward to meeting Erik tomorrow afternoon in Zwartsluis.

The car has been fine so far, though I don't think I'll be going Trans-Europe in it again. It's just too uncomfortable and cannot cope with Belgian roads which are shocking. There were places where I was having to drive 20mph under the speed limit for miles. Also on the cobbled streets I managed about 10mph. Huge PITA. Also I can't really cruise over 60mph as its just too noisy.

For those going to Brugge, wow what a little gem that place is. Beer heaven and chocolate heaven also.

Zandvoort has been fine if a little windy. Post breakfast we are off for a day in Amsterdam for old times sake and to re-live our previous times there.

Weather wise, well Monday in Brugge was mostly vile. Yesterday was dry and cool. Today I supposed to rain, though it hasn't yet.

Fluctuating idle and revs dropping caused the car to stall many times tonight.

Thank you, anything specific i should do with it? Checked it cleaned it and put it back.

Fired up and its perfect again, just not sure it will stay?

I have checked all the hoses and joints i can for leaks and there doesnt appear to be any.

Grey plug is the idle control valve, they get gummed up sometimes and need taking off and cleaning. Car can run with out it, it will just be a bit shitty when it's cold.
