I have also fitted a fair amount in a sedan with 60/40. The good thing about the tuscon is the passenger seat folds flat forward, so you can fit anything up to 3m (eg that free pine I got from the building site next door) No I didn't nick it - they pitched the roof wrong and pulled 2 units roofs down
Only thing that annoys me is no tow bar yet - quoted $690. Timing belt (plus brake fluid and fan belts while its there) is $920 on Wednesday. Tires are on their way as well.
Can't complain though, got 15000km in 18 months with just 1 major DIY service (new plugs, coolant, auto trans fluid, 3 rad hoses), and 5 DIY oil changes (short 3k interval to flush as I know it was on its way to start being run into the ground before I bought it).
Was averaging 12-13l /100km. With new plugs, similar driving now at 10l/100km and a nearly silent motor.
I am getting that way with trimmers as well - I only do adjustments and carby work now. Found a product at bunnings called mechanic in a bottle saves plenty of carby re-teardowns if I dislodged dirt the first time
I do like the old Ryan engines though
The amount of trimming I have, I can easily get away with anything small as 15cc - the old stihls have a nice feel to them.
