Rough Luck Racing Update
That was a later finish than expected, on our home now on the M62….
We went back over to Yeadon, this morning, and lovely to see Lorna again, for the cambelt service, on her fab looking TF 135. Full service done too. She asked if we spotted anything else while we were there to let her know. The underfloor coolant pipes had certainly done their time, so these were replaced with stainless. Car up and running nicely again.
We then went over to Huddersfield,
where it was great to see Chris again, for replacement of all spheres on his lovely looking MGF Trophy.
Strangely, one of the replacement spheres had the wrong sized cone fitted, this was only apparent when refilling the system with hydralastic fluid, we then set about taking all the spheres out and checking the heights against the old set of spheres. Only to find that the first we took off was the only one at fault. However, did find partially blocked pipe to one of the rear spheres, managed to clear it enough to be useable.
Once Chris has obtained a new pipe we will go back to replace this. Plus we ran out of time to check over the tic-over issue he has been experiencing on his TF 160. The car seems to tic-over ok while stationary, but when driving always tries to stall.
Great to have a good catch-up with you Chris, we appreciated the many welcome cuppas 🤗 Plus mouse evicted from air box!
