Is it time to panic yet?

(1/2) > >>

Wolfie:
The wise Mr Webster commented somewhere about saving time to panic when getting a race car ready.

I was convinced that everything was under control. Finish off the fettling of the racer this evening, actually get home for the first time in a week, get my personal stuff ready, get Katy off on holiday, pick up the trailer, pick up the racer, and drive to Clyro in plenty of time. Easy!

Just decided to have a look under Heather to compare something on the racer, to find a wet diff. Where's all that green water coming from? Seems that she has again got the huff with the amount of time that I've been spending on Mathilda, and decided that she would like a new water pump.

Ah well, that'll keep me busy for a bit longer. Just need to go get a pump now.

Wolfie:
Cheers.

Those wonderful people at Wolston Garage came up trumps again, so I've got the water pump.

Think I'll fit the new exhaust centre section to M next.

Henry Webster:
Yep, I've had one too - a last minute panic, that is! :lol:

Found that the rear radius arm triangular bushes were displaying movement even though they look brand new.  I've had that before in Radnor worn bushes, it makes lifting off at 100mph really entertaining! :shock:

There was an easy solution, though... No more confidnce lifts! :shock:

Got a new set coming tomorrow I think and will fit them before we head down to Clyro.  

When are you guys travelling?

What centre section are you fitting to the blue silly one then?  Std?

Hope they arrive in time, but if not, I'm sure that Wolston Garage had some (red & blue polybush) and I would be able to pop over there and pick up a set if necessary.

I'm aiming to head off around 11 on Friday morning, so will be down there quite early on Friday. The donkey will be heading down later in the day.

Just a standard one, the old one was getting a bit perforated. Not sure what we'll end up with once we get the new engine in.
