A fun fact for the (stock) RF900 is that it still holds the world record for the longest distance travelled in 24 hours 5,900 Kms at an average speed of 152 mph set in 1994.

Took the missus Mercedes S204 in to work on Friday as it was rattling like a seanut suspension wise. Had a set of rear dampers sat in the boot hoping they were the cause and in recent weeks the front had started rattling too so l suspected ARB droplinks.
All the rattles were keeping me awake to and from hospital visits, Friday l realised hiw much the meds are taking out of me and l struggled doing the suspension on a 2 post ramp with all the correct tools.
Took the car for a drive afterwards and the diagnosis was correct, rear dampers rattling and cheap drop links.
While we were off after one hospital visit, we washed the car and l took the missus for brunch. Turns out there's a car wash at the Cafe now!

Bit different, water leak on a corvette motor in a boat, pump is direct driven from the end of the camshaft. Took an age to find as so much water was being expelled it was throwing the wet stuff everywhere. Now need to source a replacement pump

Is that because it's got "boat/marine" somewhere in the description?
