Browns Lane?

I did check the fuel lines the other year tbh, when I was having issues with the tank pressurising and had to trace them to look for blockages in breathers & so on.

Today, I am being badly let down - again - by a motor trade professional.

I don't ask for much. Just for a job to be done on time, and not be lied to.

Yes I believe they were rather brown. That was nothing on the Chinese inferno, a few years back though....

Hardwired the dash fan into the fuse box to free up the cigarette lighter socket.

Found a 1A fuse and an inline fuse holder to protect the cheapy flex going to the fan. Now I can charge my phone and have the fan on. Luxury.

I'm all posh now in the van. Bloke came from Sunderland at 3 o'clock has just left. All for £50 he quoted. I ran the cable in for the reverse camera while he was busy. Proper car nut (knob) old audi a4 with lace sprayed bonnet and shopping list etc. He does remaps and anything to do with electrics but no spannering so quite handy to know. DJ too with selfie booth etc. His 1.9tdi is 190bhp with pops bangs and fire. Normally I'd call the cunts wankers but he was pleasant and knew his stuff. I gave him £70.

I only understood about 60 percent of that, but I am happy for you.
