Norfolk…
After a couple of days in the workshop we were up bright and early to head over to Wiggenhall St Peter where it was lovely as always to see Mark and Pam.
The cambelt service was due on the TF 135, a post LE 500 production (paint code 287) cambelt, water pump and tensioner replaced along with new alternator belt as the one on it was squealing a tad on start-up.
Mark had been after a BRM for some time and having done some research he found this one a few months ago. Everything had been done on it, but he wanted the head gasket replacing to ensure peace of mind.
What an enjoyable days work on these two fab examples. As always, great hospitality and good to have time for a chat with them both. Baking hot weather too, and really nice to have strokes with their handsome puss Olly.
From there we went over to our digs, absolutely stunning place, with horses in a field below our window (didn’t know that honestly when I booked it) but oops no telly, didn’t know that either, honest I didn’t Jon!
Monday and Tuesday were spent on a trade car replacing stem seals and piston rings as the car was burning oil, and we couldn’t 100% say it was just the stem seals or just the piston rings, it was decided between us and the owner to do both. Car returned yesterday afternoon.
Nice peaceful spot tonight ready to head over to Wickmere in the morning for a clutch. – https://ift.tt/xtvlasw
