We need to pick up a shipping container and transfer stuff from the one here to get the weight reduced to truck capable levels. Before we do that, we need to stop the water leak via the water pump and we don't seem to be able to locate a Ford Cargo water pump, not even the Ford dealer has a listing.
Next we need to find what caused the power loss that started at the bottom of Macquarie Pass, blocked filters or a stuck exhaust brake are the most likely suspects. Besides one of the ramps falling down halfway across the Hay plains with a hell of a bang and scaping noises and the fact that 90km/h makes it a long trip, it was a fairly uneventful trip. We left Upper Mannum at 1:30pm and arrive in the driveway at Lake Illawarra 25hrs later, and a whole 2 hrs sleep in Kombi still tidied on the back of the truck in Jugiong thrown in as a bonus
