Back to it!
Monday morning found us in the workshop first thing to get cracking on Stephen’s ‘04 TF 115 that he’d dropped off yesterday, when he drove up from Milton Keynes. Full underfloor treatment carried out over 2 days to give it full protection and preventative maintenance. A bit of welding needed and all ready for when Stephen came back on Tuesday afternoon to collect.
Sally had driven over from Skelton to drop off her ‘03 TF 135 for MoT and minor service. After a pre-mot check it required a bit of welding and new wipers. Minor service carried out and all ready for Sally to collect.
Paul drove over from Barmby on the Marsh on Tuesday morning to leave his Abingdon with us for its MoT and check over of a couple of things. Good to see him again and have a cuppa and a chat.
The cars rear high-level brake light wasn’t working, which was found to be due to faulty wiring, which Jon set about fettling. The SRS light kept coming on, which we found to be a problem with the rotary coupler/squib, this was swapped out with a replacement and problem solved. Couple of other bits sorted, including hydragas lift and the car all set ready for Paul to pick up.
Lovely to see Gerald again who brought over his MGF, in Wedgewood, from Horsforth for the minor service. We’d worked on the car when it was previously in his ownership, he’d then sold it and when it came back up for sale again last year he decided to buy it back, and a good decision too as it’s a cracking example.
After taking a few well needed days off over the festive season to recharge the batteries we thought we would hit the ground running with a fairly big list of a job booked in for 3 days, only for the car not to appear. At least I managed to get a couple of others booked in in its place so not a totally wasted week. Let’s hope this isn’t indicative of the year ahead! 😕
At least we had time for a well needed clean up of the fleet so it looks less like a scrap yard!
Hope everyone had a good festive season wherever you may have been and are looking forward to what lies ahead for your MGs in 2024. – https://ift.tt/anNHOvi
