Hi we are back from holiday here are some pic's from the journey throw France and in to Spain, we averaged 30.7 mpg on the way there and on the way back I had a heavier right foot (fun) didn't want to the mpg for that one

Sorry there in the rong order, there are many more pics but but not on my iPad yet

Thanks for sharing Steve :thumbup1: Do you know how many miles you covered ?

Absolutely. Taken my Z down to southern France a number of times. I have another euro road trip all booked up for September with another forum member.

Indeed - and great pics Steve; glad your Zed did you proud....:thumbup:

 

And 30+mpg too - hell, I rarely see more than 22....:biggrin::lol:

Black one?

Black one?

No red one.

 

I diagnosed today

Throttle sensor circuit fault

Lock up solenoid fault

 

So in essence, it only changes to overdrive at about 85 mph which is no good.

 

Basically even if I do try to change the lock up solenoid, I'm half way done to a manual swap and I have accidentally also got another manual donor :innocent:
