Default Trucks just got parked as they were

Hi Rob

As things happened the trucks just got driven into the shop after the Summer Rally and sat until the end of November before I could do anything on them. So no they didn't get a fluid check before going into storage this year.

Well the system in the HUP sat at pressure for 24 hours did leak down a little 41 to 30 lbs still no sign of any leakage. With out re-stroking peddle increased the peddle pressure up to 55 lbs and then left for an hour. There was no sign of the peddle having creeped down.

So tomorrow when the weather is better I'll take the HUP off the jack stands and take it for a drive and see how the brakes feel. Taking each of the trucks for a nice long drive is part of my spring ritual, got to burn up all that stale gas in the tank and then get fresh.

Cheers Phil
