  9. It was a get me home fix when I had a leaking rear brake cylinder
    I then forgot about it until I came to change a flat tyre
    Not something I’m proud of

    Found a magnet led inspection lamp affixed to the underside of mine after some work at the local garage.

    It was rechargeable so I returned it as it would actually be more expensive to mate it with a replacement charger!!

    Was it a year ago that it came off at Techenders?!

  15. Of course.. why?

    If you mean the wood pattern, I think it’s more of a herring bone. :)

    Blimey! I shall have to look back through my old photos to check!! :)
     
  20. Had to put some fuel in Tilly on Tuesday before she would start after doing the chokes, went to start Tilly today and no fuel so i put in 5 more litre and moved her to put a tray underneath to see if any fuel was dripping out,it wasn't dripping it was running out.
    Quick look showed a stream of petrol running out of the fuel hose just before the electric fuel pump under the left rear chassis.
    Clamped the pipe with a mole grip to stop the flow then removed the offending pipe and fitted a new piece. Now need to get right under her to replace the fuel hose from tank to filter and filter to pump.
    Better now than on the side of the motorway
    Check your hoses and breathers before the you start to use the loves of your lives.
