awwwh you guys  you are all as sweetly scented as this

hehe...yes, there is a Deep Well of Intentional Bliss Full Being Here, Sun Heart!  ~ and KingKey(s) perhaps too Sweetpea!~

Precious licks indeed, Neet our Divine Beat! Definitely a treat that needed even more prolonged savouring though, but at the time I was flying through RP HQ's rather speedily, as I was on my way to Brizzie Airport to meet a Sister coming in on an International Flight!!   hehe...glorious Goddess!!  I know that I am nothing more than your own reflection of sublime beauty,  within the pool of ever shimmering clarity which gracefully surrounds and IS thee.

Thanks for posting the recipe Jen!  Tis too good not to share!   

Great!  Thanks for sharing Ivan, that sounds like an encouraging story! 

Thank you too for your further advice Simon.  As I can arrange my life to fix it I shall.  Presently I am feeling ok to be more reliant on my own resourcefulness/body power.

I won't let it sit for long though before it is fixed.

(I am not online much at all these days, so please excuse any delayed replies, or very brief replies)

Hi Bobbi, thanks for sharing your experience of Don Tolman's lecture.  I'd love to know more!  Please share some more!

hmmm, thank you Simon, I think you are on to something!   Maybe looking 'cool' rather than 'hot' would be the way to help the car to not overheat!   

I love this car, it has run very well for me.  It has been maintained in immaculate condition for years...and yes....Holden parts are very easy to come by and they are hardy, durable and long lasting.  I really like Holden Station Wagons.  I have had curvacious EH's, HJ's, HQ's and now this one.  But alas, I digress.   

Your suggestions for getting a smaller, more economical car makes sense.   It has overheated several times now in the last few weeks.  The engine may have suffered some damage.  I know blowing a gasket can cost in excess of $1,000 to repair. 

If it is the radiator, then 'hopefully' years of keeping the car fueled on flash lube and premium has kept the motor working like new, and smooth enough, to withstand such high temperature pressures, a protection of sorts.

I like station wagons as I find them highly practical for my lifestyle.  Straw bales, fire wood, camping, bamboo tipi poles, rocks....my kar doubles as my TractOR....

The romantic in me likes the idea of a moped or similar motorized bike, rather than a smaller car.  Some kind of clean green hue...

Like my brrrrrrrrooooooooooom!!!  Which reminds me, thanks Janita!  I leant my broom to a Fool once many moons ago...I will see if the Eternal Child is finished with it.   

Thank you Simon for the generous offer of giving me further advice if needed.  Are you a mechanic?  I am in NSW.

Sweet Neet, I thought that grease bindy might be perceived as purposely placed - but I'd prefer a mulberry finger print on my forehead any day!  Though ye be right Neet, light joyfilled spontaneity rules the here and now...and who knows what may take one by surprise!

Awwwwe, thank you!  It's funny that I even had some engine juice on my third eye!  I didn't know it was there, until afterwards!  So neatly done ~ but it really was sublime synchrony!

love you Hon!

Oooh!  How wonderful!  Thank you Gorgeous Fellow tyre changing Sister! 
Wow Nige is mechanical too!?  That is great!

Hi Simon!

Thanks for your suggestions! 

I am usually quite capable mechanically with a sense of ability to diagnose problems and then fix them myself.  I have done this several times.

But recently my bonnet/hood has broken and I am not able to 'lift the lid' without jacking the car up and unbolting a plate, reaching up past the fan and using a long screwdriver and lots of elbow grease, push the metal clasp hook over to the side, so as to release the bonnet's catch.

So a mechanic helped me out on the spur of the moment last week, seeing the car was desparately needing some water, put the car up on the hoist and after some working it and me helping out where I could...we opened it...filled it with oil and water. 

I expected the oil and water to last for at least a few weeks.  So this over heating so soon is a new thing.  It could be that the radiator is blocked. 

It hisses, belches steam and shudders horrendously and the engine will not stop after I have turned the key to off and removed them...it can take up to 4 minutes for it to shudder to a stop.

Black smoke is starting to pour from its exhaustion pipe too....

Argh the fumes from such a hot motor...headache material...

I had to keep exercising control of my thoughts to bring the car safely home...the sounds and everything else going on with it, could easily stimulate one to fearing of a major 'accident'!

It is going to be some orchestration with the mechanics to fit it in and also for me $

I am glad that it/I made it here and I/it didn't break down on some windy mountain ridge road and require towing.  I read this from many angles too..

I am aware that the car is an outer expression of an inner process.  AnyOne and the Many are welcome to offer feelings and insights if feeling pulsed to!

love and appreciation,

Just letting whomever is interested know that I will not be making it to Don Tolman's Brisbane talk tonight. 

My car has several kinks that need ironing out. 

Broken struts and now excessive over-heating within 5 minutes of driving, despite recent top-ups with oil and water!  Major mechanical repairs needed before any further ventures. 

A 20 minute trip home yesterday took me 3 hours +     with stops to allow the motor to cool.

Anyways, what a wonderful situation to propel myself into more cycling, walking and the fluency of being required  for instant decisions for lifts as they arise with friends and whomever.
