Can go Cann river either on the way down or on the way back. Lakes Entrance was a nice drive last time I went through there.

Well, were do i start.
We left a little late, encounted a issue with the engine just stopping. Started and went fine until about 10kms out of Albury. Road side assist suggested we ran out of gas......towed to Albury, filled the car up, didnt take much gas.
We thought maybe it was only running one of the two gas tanks. Drove down the road about a km and stopped again.
Walked around back to servo and then to a motel. Back to car, car started and drove to motel. Less then a km, un loaded car, then drove to workshop and it stopped again as we arrived.
so not cool.
particulars of car
au ute
factory gas
no problems known prior.
Cheers,
j

Get someone to run a scan tomorrow morning. It will tell you what has dropped the ball.

Any mechanical repair shop should have a scan tool. It is basic equipment for a mechanic shop now days.

Actually an AU should be able to self test. Google that & also Google the list of fault codes.

Yes Pete was very lame of Moe

We have had car towed to a gas workshop and are currently striping the convertor out of it. The folks in Albury have been very helpful. Have taken ammo photos on phone as we gone through our adventure.

Update shortly
