Some changes and what they are like .... (removal of aircon

Post by WiM » Tue Oct 18, 2005 10:49 pm

We weighed one at 15kgs, maybe 18 or so with fluids...

degassed it - for a
cost of $25. Good for the environment and saves
you getting frostbite
when you burn your hands with it (not a good
look).

I had someone to take the Air Con - but I stuffed
a pipe removing it, so
(sadly) into the dump it goes.

In regard to traps - with the steering I learn a
true-ism - it matters
not how much you drain something there is always
more fluid in there
once you lay on your back directly under it.

You Do need to ensure that you get as much fluid
out as possible to keep
the steering reasonable, also you need to get the
wheels reset - I will
email to this list the settings once I get them
(they are at home).

Its heavy - 18kg could be a push - but I have been
careful to take every
bolt an
d bracket - I will weigh and come back.
