Road Trip From Enugu To Abeokuta. by oblo(m): 3:23am On Mar 27, 2015 |
Elections are here and easter happens to be around the corner My wife and I had planned to leave for Abeokuta(was based there before I relocated to Enugu) for elections and have quality time with family members for the easter celebrations. Car make and model: Mitsubishi L200 double cabin. Fuel: Petrol Rear wheel drive. Proposed Take off time: 5:30 am Car had already been serviced 2 weeks ago with the manufacturers recommended weight in oil. 20w50. I had been checking my brake pads for wear and decided I change them 2 days ago as they were worn low. Went hunting for fuel @ 87naira per litre as most independent fuel stations were selling for between 100 naira and 105. after queuing up to no avail at 2 different stations and my petrol reserve indicator had just lit up I finally got to buy at Oando along Ogui road. Filled up sharply. 60litres Checked and gauged all tyres INCLUDING spare tyre ( funny most people don't ever remember to check or gauge spare tyres UNTIL it's time to use them > . Checked my tool box, portable tyre inflator, fire extinguisher, Torchlight, All in order. Let me catch some more sleep: Keep you. posted |
