Engine & Engine Bay
As bought photo.
Oct 2020. -Photos below are after cleaning, painting, fitting a new high top radiator, as heater hose connects to bottom of rad, plus new top and bottom hoses and added a few shiny bits to coil and carb.
Mechanically Tightened lots of loose nuts all over the car including the distributor clamp bolt!
Checked and adjusted gaps on tappets, distributor and plugs.
Removed sump, cleaned out sludge and fitted new gaskets. Did engine oil and filter change together with gearbox and back axle oil change.
Checked brake shoes, all round, bleed brakes and adjusted so they are all good now.
Adjusted carb, link that lowers jet was bent preventing the choke from operating smoothly. Replaced fuel line with new and removed fuel filter. Replaced choke cable with new.
Greased all suspension, hub bearings and prop shaft points.
Replaced one bad tie rod rubber on near side. Rest look okay but will do others when I have figured out the best way!
5 Nov. 2020 -Fitted new speedo cable. Needle does not wave at me anymore. Also added lagging to exhaust pipe from manifold to box.
