Did a bit of a quick getaway from a junction in Derby and managed to rip the tread blocks off the outside of my right rear tyre. That ll teach me to spin those rears up on the V6.

I know what I will be doing tomorrow then

Drained the cooling system and flushed with plenty of water. Removed rad and flushed both ways to get all the sediment out of the bottem and then refitted and filled with nice new coolant. Did air filter, oil and filter change at the same time, forgot to get fuel filter :oops:

Whipped the dash out of Julies Sport, stripped it down and replaced 2 x capacitor that control the speedo stepper, 2 x diode and fitted new push to make switch ( trip reset ) all parts from Maplins total cost less than £3.50.

Whilst the dash was out I removed the shear bolts that holds the steering column in place as they were loose and replaced them with proper bolts.

popped the dash back in and got Julie to take it for a whizz around the block.

All thumbs up so a job well done.

Julie then gave both a good hoover out and we cleaned the glass of them both.

Just having a well deserved cuppa

I took Beasty out for a bit of a run. First time she's been started in over 2 weeks. Felt like I was driving a truck.....especially compared to my Ford Ka company car. :shock:

Decided to strip down the front brakes to clean and regrease the sliders. 1 was seized solid and as per normal it broke in the carrier. Going to try and drill out the broken pin than all i need to get is 1 sliding bolt. Removed the clutch pedal box to see if i can fix the cracked bulk head.
