thescrapman Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Another busy day spannering. Re torqued the head, and identified why 2 tappets had been hard to get right, the case hardening had been compromised. So a couple of hours were spent trying to replace them. Why is nothing ever quick. Why I was doing that, Chris my co-driver and Dave Maton swapped the front wheels, swapped the rear springs, and swapped the front seats.Just last few tools and spares to pack, then sticker the car up. Even the radio crackled back into life briefly. ... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Bennett Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Looks like we have a working cooling fan even spinning the right way!! A big thank you to David Walker for breaking off from his own wiring marathon to sort this out! Just got back and now have the fan working off a proper ignition feed and automatically cutting in with the temperature sensor connected properly. Result!!
