Rough Luck Racing Update
When we last saw Tony in Macclesfield we took out the Pektron unit for him on one of his TF’s, in order to send off to Technozen, as the central locking relay had given up. So we returned today to refit it for him. Unfortunately, the battery was flat and the bonnet release was broken, so what was supposed to be a quick fix turned into a full morning of getting into the car and then the bonnet.
We got the doors open and into the bonnet eventually. Pektron unit refitted and new bonnet release fitted. We like a challenge! Really pleased for Tony that his car is back up and running again.
We then went over to Bramhall and good to see Stephen again. He had noticed a small amount of coolant loss, and from his description it sounded very much like the thermostat had sprung a leak and sure enough on pressure test it was evident that that was what the problem was. New thermostat and housing fitted, system pressurised again and no more leaks.
The car was sitting a little low so hydragas topped up, now looks a lot better.
A successful day and we even managed to dodge the rain somehow. Posted today to the
