What did you do to your Non-Kombi VW or other car today?

It seemed to stick to the Stag ok, so wrapped the exhaust in that heat proofing exhaust tape, cable tie each end because I didn't have any of the metal straps on hand, and Margaret and Brian have headed off on the 200km round trip to Adelaide to pick up Victron gear for a job in the workshop and basically shop till they close the last shop before heading home :lol:
I guess I'll get a phone call if the leak starts again, the petrol smell was pretty intense with the fuel dripping onto the exhaust and boiling off .....

It must have done the job. Margaret has clocked up quite a few kms since the repair and it has had quite a few trips up and down the bush track and no leaks .......  Cool
