Default Job Done

Thanks Ol' Blue for the help.

I have replaced the evaporator and the system gassed up today - just in time for the summer here in the UAE.

I did not have to remove the steering column, I just undid the four supporting bolts and swung the dash board out of the way.

Even though I wrote a list of the order in which it all came apart, I still managed to make a few mistakes and had to take bits off again to add a part.

On the whole, a long, but not difficult, job.

Cheers

Dave
