Going along with the forgetful theme. I installed a Radioddity QT40 10 meter radio in my TJR today. It will be used as a am/fm/ssb radio though. Pictures tomorrow. The forgetful part is, I ordered a swr meter and 12" jumper to check everything and seemed to have misplaced or tossed the jumper some howI've looked every where for the damn jumper, and I must have accidentally thrown it away with a Amazon box.
Here's some pictures of my install. Only problem is it interferes with folding the seat forward, although I removed the back seat shortly after accusistion.

Today is my 6 monthly NZ inspection appointment....It's had new clutch, headlights , shocks and replaced the rear sway bar bushings since my last one plus I cleaned up my tow bar from rust (which they warned me about in my last inspection)...looking for a good passtoday so grabbing my 4 leaf clover, lucky rabbits foot and a horseshoe just in case.
Woooohooo Passed inspection…all good for another 6 months
oh my god - you poor bugger! I was fed up with that TÜV shit in Germany (every two years). SA is much better. No inspections at all.
Your post is useless to me without food pics. I fixed that for you with my restrictive diet.
p.s. I want pics of you next to an actual Hobbit. I will decide if you measure up.

that's too vegan...
I'm 73 as well. When I think of the things i did at 37, I shake my head and realize thats why I feel so old now. If I had known I would live this long, I would have taken better care of myself!
I’d hate to get an inspection every 6 months. I complain about the 2 year smog test here is CA.
I'd hate inspections period. Glad I live in a free state.
I live in rural Madison county, IL. No inspection either. In larger cities they do tho.
Keep us posted! Wish you the best of luck.
When my P0306 hit years back, I too went with a leakdown test. After scratching my head, I took off the valve cover and found the rockers weren't moving on cyl 6... Long story short - Cam replaced by the dealership for the OPDA gear issue, rounded off a valve lobe after 60k miles...
Sharing my experience to point you in a potential diagnosis direction if the leakdown doesn't get you what you need.
100% wish you better luck than my experience on the P030X code!

How do you get away with no inspections at all!!! That can’t be the same for all over Aussie can it ?
I'm not sure, but maybe it's only South Australia.
Took the cover off the TJR to run errands- Blast to drive-
It's ground chicken, not tofu.
So that makes it Cheegan!!!!!
I really, REALLY don't want to pull the valve cover.
I've done some initial testing and think the cylinder 1 injector is either clogged or failing. It's within specifications on an ohms test, but when I pulled the connector with the engine running (and already running rough) it didn't get worse. Pulling the connectors on the others did cause more stumbling.
However, my hope is working through the process with gauges might give me a little more piece of mind.
I told my wife I was going to sell her Jeep instead of mine, She took the news well.
