Dead Gearbox Official

Took the car in to finally have the oil and Molyslip installed in the gearbox. Phil says the box is knackered. Drive it home, second to third assists to be better and there is no problem in fourth or fifth. In third, the axle is whining, he also reckons that that is knackered too. Third to second is still awful.

However, as it is knackered and this can't get any worse, bugger it, I'm going to try to get to the Pershore show on BH Monday...

New Carb Bar Thingy

Well, not a new bar, just the plastic end things. Cost a poxy tenner! Took some adjusting as the carbs were tuned using the old taped up knackered one.

Taped up knackered ends

Shiny and new

239 Miles

So much for Summer and the x1000 mile target. From 78722 to 78961. Hardly seems worth it sometimes.
