100 Miles Done

I know it's not many compared to some but I see it as a milestone.

 

Been taking friends out for 8-10 miles at a time, so far things are generally good but I do have a few teething issues......

 

- sticky throttle - sorted with new springs

- clutch cable shroud impacted by the exhaust heat - wrap the exhaust

- slight oil leak between bell housing and engine

- slight fluid leak

- brake lights have stuck on a couple of times

- engine temp shot up whilst accelerating, maybe air related to leak, soon went down

- slight knocking sound when turning right at very low speed, possible just new making it up

- fuel gauge all over the place but generally not drinking fuel (I think!)

 

Nothing particularly big or worrying. The car is too much fun to worry! But I'm glad it's running and it'll stay that way for another 6 weeks and then SORN whilst I attend to the above.

AS to your probs by all means wrap the exhaust but fit the longer cossy clutch cable and rerout out past radiator and back at low level to clutch arm it works very well mower man
