  1. My cheap electricity has gone from 32 c p Kwh. and is going ( according to Red energy ) , 39.somthing , per Kwh . So 40 cents per kwh to charge an ev will not be that cheap . ( 40 c, p,kwh into a 60 kw battery. tesla S 85 kw ) spacesailor
  2. At one time the poms came here for holidays ! . Now anytime more than 30 days should be a government paid, sentence in an over-sea's prison , which ever country that needs some money for locking up our criminals it was done for Australian " criminal immigrants " . . spacesailor
  3. I'm right! ! ' see ' . spacesailor
  4. C !. spacesailor
  5. But !. To buy one. Even if you don't need a second one is a waste , if you dicard that freebie to the rubbish bin . spacesailor
  6. Or, an " air-cooled " two-stroke. I once parked behinda VW beatle ( air-cooled )at a ' ski resort ' and was roundly told-off, " your block will freeze & crack at this hight, with it's very low temperatures " . So I had to drive a mile back down the mountain to the ( common man's ) carport . No problems with ' water in the sump ' or ' Freeze cracked block ' . spacesailor
  7. A couple pictures of a lightened Hummbird D former . For Geoff . 4 With apologies for late offering . ( put aside then lost ) . spacesailor
  8. They do fit a 12 point socket ! . spacesailor
  9. All IC motors create h2o ! . When cold the piston will not have expanded to seal the bore . That's the big problem of short trips . Then that steam vapour condenses onto the still cold metal And also onto the cold oil . Then that condensate sinks to the bottom & stays out of the heat . Awaiting the return trip to add a little more. my oil is nice & clear , so no worries . spacesailor PS. : A smaller motor , than my 4lt V6 , Would help to warm-up as less cold metal ' mass. ' to heat .
  10. I must check those ' revs ' , as they were only a guesstimate . But the car will stay " all alone " , locked up , in the garage , the battery looses a little bit daily by it's ' alarm system ' and all the electrical gadgets. It's one reason to go ' electric ' .no warming up , & getting a sump half-full of water . I didn't think that I had ' overfilled ' the sump after the last oilchange !, But the oil level is above the full mark now . spacesailor
  11. Use a doll . A barbie doll will confuse them . And they're cheap as chips at " op-shops " . spacesailor
  12. Check the angle of his hips !. I couldn't manage the slider as there wasn't any leg strength to push the foot forward . Also I did enjoy the attention. LoL Nice new hip ! , so no attention. spacesailor
  13. Welcome to my world . It's getting faster as I'm getting older . It takes twice as long to get my socks on , or walk a couple K's. Than it did , before you were born . LoL spacesailor
  14. it's, still an insurance scam here in Australia. NRMA has a higher policy price for pensioners !, Because Pensioners don't pay full registration cost . spacesailor
  15. BUt at 3,000 revs it won't get the high 'amps' . Or the 12 minutes trip doesn't charge much either. I'm not rural, but relegated to that mandatory 50 k maximum speed . PLUS those five red traffic-light's . Oh , I do miss that ' open road " to anywhere. spacesailor PS. : Karumba is calling
