Port Lincoln might be described as a small city, but a large town is probably a more accurate description. Situated on beautiful Boston Bay it is (by South Australia standards) a large grain port with a very large grain storage complex and ship loading facility as its reason d'entre. The town was founded in 1839 because of its very large protected harbor (3 times the size of Sydney Harbor) and is now the regional center for the Eyre Peninsula.

We had a relaxed day catching up on chores, sleeping in our nice motel room and exploring the downtown area of the town.

The mechanic at the Toyota dealer was able to reproduce the engine problem and diagnosed a loss of fuel pressure as the cause of the engine stall but was not able to find a definitive cause other than a loose bolt and a crimpted fuel line hose. We await tomorrow morning to see if the problem is fixed.
