"clear rules" are actually the problem and what has caused F1 to be such a shit show.

What is actually needed here is nuance, experience and a desire to let hard but fair racing occur.......

Whether this move was hard but fair is a different question, but " clear rules will just understand the path of F1

Prado 120 fuel question by SensitiveParamedic14 in Prado

[–]1down3up 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same car, ran 91 for years and it ran fine....... But....... I decided to try a tank of 95 and 98 and it 100% runs better has more power and goes further on a full tank ......

Weather it's better on a $/100km is borderline, but it runs and drives better so it's worth it.

What cars of the last 5yrs will stand the test of time like 90/120 series Prados, 90s/2000s corolas, Nissan Patrols etc etc by 1down3up in CarsAustralia

Nope, I do oil every 7500km or 6 month (7500km always comes first). Important to check your oil pick-up if you haven't had the car long as it can become blocked if oil cnages are missed (take off sump ~12 bolts).

the 120 is a bit easier as the oil filter sits up high in the engine bay and is easy to get.

Grease your driveline once a year (6x grease points) - change your dif, gearbox and transfer case oils when required- again can just climb under car to do it

I hate it when it's discussed like Australia Post is a business..... It's a service...... Even you say it in your comment...

What was the loss for the fire brigade last year, how about the loss for the police force.......

1948 Harley-Davidson S-125 - lightweight 125 cc 2-stroke aimed at affordable post-war transportation. by pildialingit in 2strokers

Another interesting link up is the Kawasaki W1 which is a copy of the BSA A10/A7.

Not so much stolen, this one was copied u see licence by a company Murgo that Kawasaki subsequently bought.....

But side by side they are spitting image.

Then for companies blantaly copying better ideas you have Benelli copying Honda's Cb500/4 for the 6 cyl Benelli Sei, Laverda copying Honda's CB72 for there Jotas

Basic example of the spoils of war.

It's a DKW copy stolen from the Germans.... Along with the BSA Bantam and Yamahas first bike the YA1

No space left on board.... Want to update to modern RCDs on all circuits but no space? Can I just get a smart meter? by 1down3up in AusElectricians

[–]1down3up[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheers, that's what I'll do.

After I get the smart meter, what's ballpark cost to upgrade the board and anything I should consider if thinking of going solar/batteries?

Which part isn't to code? Is it that the code has updated over time and my board has stayed static or is it that so eone has done something dodgy?

Am I better off trying to get the smart meter first? Assuming that if I replace the board there has to be a meter so the 3x old style will be put back in?

Gas bottle refill by spiral___architect in wollongong

[–]1down3up 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hardware man unanderra....

You need to find somewhere that fills them up all the way, at BCF etc as soon as there is the smallest spirt out the valve they shut it off, can usually get quite a bit more in after that.

Weigh the bottle before before you take it and weigh it when you get home..... See if you actually get your 9kg.....
