Preview will be excellent!
Gives a chance to double check spelling & typos etc., always a bit embarrassing to submit a misspelt post.

John,
I think your problems are probably caused by a an internal Victorian problem by the name of "Lucky". Rumour has it that he has been trying to do a few "odd-jobs" in his garage (on the droopy and the camper-trailer-from-hell) and it has drained the state's power grid to such an extent that you will be experiencing certain delays when trying to use your computer......;-))

Cheers and hope you have settled back into the mundane life that is caused by the need to work in order to travel.

Lucky or Lucy, I am not sure which, has been doing just that I am sure. Probably still out in the garage trying out his air capacity to lift the tent top using computer RAM instead of the air rams. LOL

Dear Teacup, I must say how much I am looking forward to seeing you come to an EO trip to Victoria and educating you to understand that Pajero is the meaning for "those who take expensive coffee maches to National Gatherings to show off".

I am not too sure In understand what your w....box is quite, Please Explain!

Pronounced as an 'h' actually - the 'j' I mean.

I hadn't checked your rig pic lately to see what you stir along ;-))) They seem to go well. Not too many problems with out of warranty diffs anyway.

we still have the pah!...Think we have solved the problem (with the help of old wise man Pezza) of why it kept dying after the new computer then putting in a new one again and it still dying etc...The amount of money we spent replacing the computers, labour to our mechanic searching for the elusive problem... (I'd find you the thread but unless there is an easier way to search it will take me forever to find it, was something like 'that's it, I've had enough')
I have always said it has to be wiring of some sort and just something really small that we are not seeing.
It looks like it is the connection plug on the fuel pump. Cause the paj was never right since it came back from the dodgy mechanics that our insurance company sent it to after the guy rear ended me and threw me across the freeway. The fuel tank had to be replaced and knowing those repairers they wouldn't have replaced anything else. So am doing our own little experiment at the moment, and when she breaks down again, which she will because it will go for a while and then not start or move again, then after a few days etc it would go again, well then we will be able to test for sure if it is the connection plug. And when she goes for the next service, mechanic will put a new waterproof one on.

Cheers
Jo

I do not believe what I have just read:

Firstly - You! Moses, ought to be ashamed of yourself. What size hook and line did you use for this one (LOL)

Secondly - You! Ms Jo (Hope I have the gender right) have you no shame at all, being sucked in like that, and by an amateur that he is

I mean to say.

I have perused you rig pics Jo and take it that you are the young thang in white on 'the great wall of china'.

Electrical faults (like you described) in these new breed of electronic managed 4WD's
are an absolute pain in the butt.

Had a couple in the new JEEP we purchased in 05, (Felt like piffing the whole thing on one occasion) however now that cause has been identified and fixed, it is a princess of a machine.

Stick with it.

That should read -

"I suggest check for login IMMEDIATELY the [Post Reply] button is clicked"

Oh, an Edit Button would be real handy.

Mike,

I have not done the Post Reply page yet only the New Thread page! In the New Thread page there is a preview button which allows you to Edit.

Also the system does check when you go to the page because if you are not logged on you are taken to the logon page. The sessions must have timed out while you were writting the reply. If you have Auto Logon enabled this will not happen, also in the new mode (as per the New Thread) this will also not happen. I will get onto the reply and followup pages this week.
