There's something very fishy about that response.

He's just casting about for a reply.

Well that didn't go to plan!

 

Rainy and so went to garage to have a play with the moped. Rid it of the broken ABS pump.

LED light unit flickering. No probs I have plenty of spare parts and units. 
An hour later after blowing up my spare LED driver unit a new unit is fitted.

Now to play mopeds....not until tank is drained and all the plastic is off. 

What's this? a broken scottoiler? Off. 

Misc wiring changes.  Tidied and soldered. 

Now to the ABS. 
Can't get a spanner to grip the 10mm compression fitting. (Lots of swearing)

 

Liberate pump. Minimal brake fluid leakage.

 

Next hour spent removing the cut/crimped and sawn lines the bike garage left in situ. 
Fixed vacuum line that scottoiler was bodged into. Should run loads better. 

 

Moped now 3.5kg lighter and a useful bit of under seat storage. 

 

Time for a rest and write a list of parts needed before it is safe to be on the road again. 

Pottering marathon over. Back to work tomorrow, so net weekend  looks fun.

Sounds like the fence we fixed... just needed to dig out 4 post holes, screw on 8 rails, nail on the existing boards, but while we were at it just fix the block paving... which means dig out the oldest fence post concrete (several generations ago), which means move the old fence about 1' for access, so might as well cut that up so the bloke round the back can take it... and the old paving slabs just put over there to make a step (needs doing anyway).. and levelling, so now it is too late to let the concrete cure enough for the fixings, so might as well get dinner, and breakfast, 4 posts... and 12 / 26 hours later... we were onto the fence boards
