Nice write up. Thanks for posting. Was great to catch up at Port Solent. Hopefully the issue is the heat guard and that issue is sorted now.
You have gone soo far with the T5, you don't want to switch to Auto now.

Interesting engine choice, what's the power output of that?

I was talking worst case senario as I've spent at least 6 months ironing out the problems. Looks like happy days coming this spring. However having sorted my power steering pump pulley out yesterday I have discovered a couple of small water leaks where the hoses join the hose tails. I've always had issues sealing these things up on this truck. I'm fitting new jublee clips tomorrow.

As you can see, it's fitted backwards. Great 0 to minus 60 time.

That is a result. I booked in my ST150 for MOT at end of the month and then the very next day the braking system hemorrhaged fluid out of the rear caliper, turns out both need doing. A job for the weekend, probably in 4" of snow.

Don't forget the flatbreads for the mot guys.
Painted my rear calipers sponge Bob yellow. The front have been yellow for a while.
Wheels needed to come off for the bump stops that will be arriving tomorrow, gives time for the paint to dry. May need another coat. Bump stop bolts look clean, put some penetrator stuff on them anyway.

Sure you not on a retainer with the SPONGE Bob creators lol.
Well as my rear wheels were off, Though I'd take a look at the passenger side handbrake which has had low effort for around 18 years. It didn't actually come on at all yesterday. So took a look the cylinder at the bottom was gunked up. Gave it a clean, manually wound it round. Seems good now.
