Two small jobs done.

One cosmetic.

Someone in the past smeared some paint on the sills, followed by spraying something over it.

So not having a throttle control fitted to drive I thought cleaning, sanding, priming and painting was the perfect way to start the day.

Loads of thinners on a rag removed all the gloopy whatever was on the sills. Sandpaper and Scotchpad next.





Masked up and painted.



Result was as good as it needed to be.



Other side was worse.



Prepped.



Done.



Very pleased with that.
Bugged me on the original photos and when I saw it.
Knew I would get it done though.

Then thanks to @westbay forwarding me some info and a chat with @zeberdee I took three parts of the problem down to the specialists.

Relay 109
TPS
EXU

The ECU is a terrible mess.

I hope they can sort it for me.







Will be a few days



So that’s another couple of things ticked off.

Video uploading took 20 hours.

Later.


Sills tidied up video:
