First head gasket replacement of the day in Looe, this morning on Hugh’s TF 135 (in LEF).
Hugh hadn’t owned the car for long when the car overheated and it was evident that the proverbial had occurred. So he had got in touch with us back in February and asked to be added to the list when next in the area.
On removing the head there was quite extensive fire-ring damage to it. Despite trying to clean it up, it was too far gone. Fortunately, we had with us, on the van, a refurbished 135 head. All ancillaries swapped over and head refitted.
Thanks to Hugh’s lovely wife for the tea and cup-cakes. 🧁
We then headed over to Plymouth, for the second head gasket replacement of the day on Al’s TF 160.
The expansion tank had certainly seen better days, so replacement secondhand one off the van fitted.
Shame not to meet Al, but glad to get his TF back up and running again for him.
A very drizzly day, all day today, it was that fine rain that gets you wet!We got finished in good time though, and headed back up the road to our digs.
I’m almost sorted on the admin, while Jon has a look to see what delectable delights are available on ‘Just Eat’! – https://ift.tt/363HZbI
