The last couple of months have flown by with one thing and another, though I do now have a nice 12 month MOT on Manda
Managed to get new set of Ferodo rear brake shoes to solve the rear brake imbalance and with some re wiring, and new headlamp bulbs all lights are good too.
Advisory for minor oil leak and small leak on rear box. Picking her up shortly and weather permitting removing almost 2 years of dirt and dust over the weekend.
Decent weather today down on the South Coast and a bit of spare time, so managed to get out and give Manda a good run following almost 2 years rustoration. She still needs a proper clean and wax but I have almost got all the rust dust out of her.
Just realised I didn’t put the new number plate screws on, with the coloured covers ! Tomorrows job
Manda has been doing what she does best the last few weeks. Miles .
The exhaust had a slight blow which increased under acceleration. After investigation, this was down to a failed exhaust manifold gasket and a sheared bolt.
Replaced the gasket today and a new M8 manifold stud. Amazingly the other two nuts came off without the bolts shearing.
