Pipercross Air Filter & Interior Clean
Came off my night shift this morning and decided to stay up all day...... god I'm tired right now.
Decided, as it was actually a nice day, to get to cleaning the Pipercross air filter I have installed. It has been in a year to the day so was in need of doing. Popped the bonnet, removed all the screws from around the airbox and took the filter out. Followed the instructions that came with the cleaning kit and firstly brushed all the bits off the filter. Then used the "Air Filter Cleaner" spraying that all over the underside of the filter and agitated that with a soft brush. Then washed it out with warm water and left it outside to dry. That seemed to take forever, which really shouldn't have been a surprise as it's a foam filter. Whilst that was drying off, I thought I may as well hoover out the interior. Had the kids in for 1 journey and they had left grass all over the footwells in the back. Pictures aren't great, but it was worse than they show. The front was looking a bit grubby as well Passenger side, not so much Rear passenger side Hoovered it all over and wiped it down with some dashboard wipes I got from Wilko's ages ago when it was closing down. Such a nice interior. I really like the half leather/half alacantara seats. Bowser and Goomba approve After doing all that, the filter was finally dry. I gave it a light coating of the "Air Filter Dirt Retention Additive" on both sides as per the instructions and re-installed it. Jag wheel update #2 - I've managed to pick some overtime shifts up whilst I'm off this week so the alloys are booked in for refurb on 31st July!! I can't wait.

Pretty Pictures
Something a litle different to start off with.
The wife and I had a ride out to Marske the other night. Such a pretty place The beach is definitely one of the nicest ones in the nearby area. Of course I had to get a sunset-car shot. This morning, I gave Blue a clean after getting home from my night shift. Luckily, I finished just before it started to get really warm. Once dried and all the detaily bits were done, I had a drive to the nearby stately home for some pics. And that's that.
