Day 1 of 5 – West of the country…
First call of the week was in Bingley this morning, for work on Ian’s 2002 TF 115 in JFV.
He’d inherited the car from his uncle and the service history was a little sketchy so he wanted to be sure and get the cambelt service done, plus he’d noticed a couple of tell-tale signs that the head gasket was on its way out, so we replaced this for him today too. It was a Mk II elastomer gasket that had been fitted. A few missing and wrong bolts, so these were all rectified. Couple of other service items replaced and the car is now all good to go for Ian to enjoy.
Shame not to meet him today, as he was away, we had intended on going on Wednesday, in which case we would have met him, but I had to do a bit of logistical shuffling to fit everyone in. No cuppas, but that’s was my fault for not bringing a kettle, but an added bonus was that the sun was out all day and we got an early finish, so being nearby we called in to Haworth for a pot of tea and a tea-cake.
We’re now in some fab digs in Keighley for the evening. – https://ift.tt/6kIBWon
