Those that don't know how to make a table in Word: Cut and paste the above (minus my preamble) into a blank Word page then go to 'Table'|Convert|Change text to table select 3 columns and comma and Bob's your aunty. I printed it double sided and got it laminated so greasy fingers won't muck it up.

Thanks Wombat.

I hate dragging these out of the workshop manual specs...they can sometimes be tricky to find.

Hey, That is fantastic. I was writing these all out this morning on the train so I had them all on one page and didn't have to go searching through the bible with greasy fingers!

Nice work wombat!
