Most of the way west
Our latest jaunt over west went better than the last one, but not
flawless. We made it as far as
Norseman,
but that was as far as I felt like taking it - we had an at-the-time
unspecified cooling issue that I later diagnosed as transmission
related. Since the transmission is quite new, I decided we’d better play
it safe and not take it north into the real heat.
We
also have some sort of electrical fault that needs diagnosing, resulting
in the fridge packing up from about Nullarbor. Luckily we didn’t lose
too much food, only about a liter of milk and some sausages. Still
though, that means eating into the stores of long-life stuff we keep for
just such an occasion, which typically works out more expensive.
Hopefully we can return home, figure out these reliability concerns, then make some trouble free miles.
