The yellow seat is safe from harm until the mouse moves out. I wanted it somewhere safe from cats and with easy access to my garden.
For the time being this is an experiment in an effort to prove concept. Long term plans for Peterborough are on hold for Jesus's birthday and my neglected Fantasia. Yep I'll be cycling to work again.
So I stripped the old manifold out and fitted the newly painted Guff one...
...the 4x4 has a brake servo (I know; drivers aids make crap drivers) so I will have to modify the inlet manifold (if it works and I decide it's staying there) at some point. I may need to anyway as the manifold length was calculated based on FrankenFiat I being a 1.4 and this version is roughly 150cc less.
TDM manifolds trial fitted for now...
...so far so good. Due to the difference in the widths of the Guff mounting plate and the original cast manifold I'm going to need at least 1.5mm washers so I'll spend some of my night shift making those.
I'm not the religious type. You could have easily guessed than as I have just spend my Sunday afternoon under a Panda bonnet instead of church or playing Golf. Sometimes when you are on a Norfolk driveway trying to create something some beardy bloke sat on cloud number ten...
...has to bloody show off.
That's my cue to get ready for work.
