After staying our first night in the luxurious confines on Trev the Triton, we packed up camp and headed of along the GOR (Great Ocean Rd), not long in to the trip we experienced our first (and hopefully our last) mechanical issue. Been the astute mechanically minded person and the experience of owning an number of bombs in my past i tried to treat this in the good old fashioned way, turn up the radio....did not quite work as planned for a number of reason, only one speaker worked and the reception was terrible. After a quick inspection under the bonnet, the problem was located, a loose belt (only the air con one). A quick lap around Apollo Bay until we spotted the RACV tow truck, then off to the workshop. 15 minutes later we were back on the road. 13 11 11 to the rescue, yes dad the RACQ is working well. I also know what size socket I need for tightening in the future, (14mm).
Anyway, until next time.......must rest, golf in the morning
