We left at 06.30 with a degree of trepidation. We were getting oily deposits on the windscreen which worried me having spent hours sorting out the oil leaks. James got it spot on, identifying the liquid as coolant from the radiator rather than oil. What a relief! The coolant is being ejected because we have removed the header tank. It's never easy is it?
It has taken 19 days but today we had a totally faultless day! What a joy and a relief. Car burning a bit of oil but nothing that cannot be dealt with.
In 700+ km we stopped for two pee's. The second was unbeknownst to us directly under the Japanese fm crew! You could not believe it. I hope it doesn't make the final cut.
Tomorrow it's 250km to Tashkent. God only knows how the border crossing will go. We have been told that there are fuel issues in Uzbeckistan but only time will tell.
A good day all round.

ReplyDeleteI'd have had at least five pees, for a couple of old farts you got off lightly. Why is car showing as being in the middle of a lake today, anything we should know?
