Whilst on the ramps in Custom Classics I sprayed the underside with 4 liters of Dinitrol, pulled the van off the ramps and headed home.
Driving the bus back from Barry on Saturday it drove a bit strange but I wasn't that worried the bus was a bit down on power and it dropped down to about 40/45 going up the hills.
I spent all the rest of the day putting it all back together and cleaning the Dinitrol over spray off the wheel arches etc. I reconnected my Deluxe clock it wasn't working for a while, refitted the rubber side steps the glue had gone gooey and they weren't holding down properly. I had to clean off all the residue and used silicon instead.

Yvonne helped me clean the bus and she loaded it up ready to go.

Sunday morning we got up at 5.00 and set off just before 6.00 I drove one junction and realized the power was right down I couldn't get over 30 MPH with the trailer.
I pulled off and put the trailer on the T4 (my daughter and her boyfriend were diving this)
I tried again this time I could get up to about 50 MPH I decided at this point to head home. :(
After a few choice words most of them starting with F and ending in K we decided to head up in the T4.
