Day 17- Khovd

Today we moved from olgii to Khovd which had pretty much no road at all. The rascal is going well with all the dry stuff but when it got wet we had problems. We got stuck for about an hour at a water crossing as the front decided it wanted to eat the mud. After 3 cars 1 4x4 and 1 bus and all their occupants we got out. After this fiasco about 30 miles down the road it died again but this time in about 18" of water but again with help from our mini convoy we escaped the clutches of a watery grave to carry on for another day

Day 16 MONGOLIA!!

Today we made the Mongolian border and made it to Olgii found a hotel that is terrible but funny the shower has 1 door left so there is a 2 foot gap in the cubical. The cubical doesn't actually drain either, it's overrated. The roads are a bit hit and miss the dirt roads are terrible but it makes the little parts of Tarmac heavenly.

Day 9 Rascal race tuned

So today we found a garage and got the Rascal sorted/ok'ed they checked everything as well and can't find anything wrong like us they reckon it's the poor quality petrol here. We had thought this and in the morning had got octane booster and carb cleaner. They had it for 6 hours cleaned out the car, changed the fuel filter, done the timing, adjusted fuelling and we got 3 more octane boosters and 1 litre of oil for just £31!!! That's our kind of fix. Off to Russia tomorrow
