My main intention is to keep it free so it's just like mates helping each other out and it's gotta be done with basic tools that we would or could have inexpensively at home (so no hydraulic hoists and stuff even though that would obviously makes things safer and easier). And safety is a concern as well - don't want anybody hurting themselves (not talking only about jacks not doing their job but even simple stuff like cuts on hands and fingers).So, for the first one we hold, it may have to be simple stuff that does not require much technical skill or tools or any fancy facilities. Will need a list of simple stuff that people would like to know how to do but can help keep the car running well or properly. An example would be tightening the manifold bolts, cleaning the K&N air filter or changing the wiper blades. Some people may not even know what a K&N filter is or that you can buy them to replace your OEM Ford disposable filter and get better performance out of our cars by using them (after a custom tune). I reckon possibly my car has had issues sometimes on long cruises cos the K&N filter was clogged up with grease and crap. On the recent VIC Alpine Cruise, cleaned it before hand and did not have any engine going into limp mode issues at all So let's start that list of basic simple things we could do and I'll try to suss out a venue and date for us (by the way - any offers of a venue would be well considered ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
