Day 14. My car is back on the road.
Well, sort of..
Ben sorted out the clutch master cylinder again I took it out for a drive.. Unfortunately, very heavy fog and no fuel meant that I had to drive it very sensibly to the petrol station. I was majorly relieved when I arrived, as this is the site I was looking at:
A lot of smoke was coming out the exhaust, but it was only moisture so I wasn't too worried. There was a bit of smoke coming from under the bonnet as I walked out the garage, so I quickly moved it away from the petrol pumps and had a look. No issues that could be seen, so I left the garage and made my way back.
Not sure if it's because I haven't driven it for a while, but it seems louder then it was which isn't ideal..Also pretty sure the biting point of the clutch has changed, or I've forgotten how to drive and I ended up over revving a bit after a few of the changes.
Anyway, car is still at Ben's to fit some necessary heatshielding, and some tiger sealed engine mounts as mine are f***ed. The gearbox one especially has seen better days, and until they are changed we won't know how badly the downpipe is 'knocking it's tits off'.
Plan was to do some more tonight, but ended up spending most of the day standing around a dyno with Prawn and Ben, which made a change from trying to sort something on my car. I'm sure he'll be updating his thread later.
The few tweaks will be done on Monday, as well as some new numberplates. Then I've got a new lower section to fit to my front bumper, and the denim will almost be presentable again.
