  1. After well over half a year's break I am slowly picking up the thread on the '76 car. https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/12/fhc-resto-nr-165-restarting-on-interior.html

    Main reason I always replace worn parts in pairs!
  3. It’s that time of year again; Autumn, Halloween, All Souls, Saint Martin's Day. But most importantly the “LTV Nachtrit” of course. And yesterday evening (Saturday the 26th of October) saw the already 35th edition of this night time navigational rally. A short report from one of the organizers, making a mental note to post here before the event next year! https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/10/35th-edition-of-ltv-nachtrit.html
  4. Decided to try to use ‘t Kreng as much as possible to see if the water pump’s seal will finally “run in”. And as the weather forecast was rather nice for today I decided to use the car for my daily commute to work. https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/10/daily-duties-for-t-kreng.html
  5. I had to change my views on 't Kreng's coolant system. But it looks like I am getting there! https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/10/686-kilometres.html
  6. It looks like 't Kreng is fit for service again ... https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/09/t-krengs-cooling-system.html
  7. ’t Kreng’s got another MOT, but despite that she managed to live up to her name! https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/07/an-mot-for-t-kreng-and-appraisel.html
  8. Looks like everything is as it should be. MOT tomorrow morning!
  9. It looks like ’t Kreng is fit for service again. Test drive hopefully tomorrow evening. https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/07/finishing-t-krengs-water-pump-take-3.html
  10. Fitting the water pump and watching Les 24 Heures du Mans don’t go well together from a point of view of time! https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/06/fitting-t-krengs-water-pump.html
  11. Removed the old water pump from ‘t Kreng today. It was rather obvious why it was leaking! https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/06/removing-t-krengs-water-pump.html
  12. Finished reconditioning the new water pump for ‘t Kreng this evening https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/06/water-pump-reconditioning-part-2.html
  13. Started on reconditioning the replacement water pump for ‘t Kreng today https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/06/water-pump-reconditioning-part.html
  14. No! As I haven't had much problems with the original set up over the years (36 and counting 🤩). This pump was fitted 17 years ago. Most problems people encounter with the original pump are small leaks that usually self seal with regular use. But lots of pumps have been replaced needlessly because people don't have a clue how the water seal works.
  15. Managed to spent a few hours on the interior of the ’76 car over the weekend. https://tr7beans.blogspot.com/2024/05/700-fhc-resto-nr-164-trial-fitting.html
