@Nils Jansen @NDR Bald™ werden wir Akkus haben, mit denen man – mit mindestens derselben Reichweite – einen VW ID.7 endlich so fahren kann wie der HILTI-Außendienstler seinen Passat.

Took Frank for a little shopping run further afield and he was fine. So glad his Aliexpress carbie works well! Still need to tweak the jets, got another backfire when we got home. But otherwise he's running nicely and solidly.
Just gotta tweak his door lock, its out of whack. Always something. I should also look at doing the Mk3 Golf wiper motor conversion, he's still got a B1 one and it's quite limp and slow.

Darn it. So Frank went to the shops and back no worries, but still backfired when stopped. The exhaust did need some TLC. I think now it's a matter of tweaking his Weber jets a tad.
Oh and that 3D part for his gearshifter turned out not to fit, it's a different shape to the T3 one. Looks like we'll be designing it from scratch.

Woo it's Saturday! That means warming up Frank and taking him for a spin to the shops, to see if the exhaust leak is gone. His exhaust got gooped up and a new clamp installed last Sunday. Hopefully that stops the very loud backfiring that startles the bejesus out of people.

Exhaust leak? Fixed. ☑️

Whoooo much victory today! Frank passed with flying colours and freaked out some people whilst out shopping. He's got an exhaust leak which will get fixed today, which means a backfire like a shotgun going off, which startled some at the supermarket 😀 Thankfully the closest witness to that was impressed at the sight of him, and not mad at the sudden crack.

Yay it's Sunday morning! And it's not raining so far. Which means, post breakfast, I'm going to take Frank to do a grocery run. Something he hasn't done in a long time, and deserves a bit of a drive after all he's been through lately. So far the Aliexpress carbie is working fine, wahoo!
If he keeps running ok, he can go to a cars & coffee show next month!
