We went and stayed with Dad in Par, visited the beach everyday.. ..and also took a walk up through the Luxulyan valley where there are some old clay workings, in which we came across some bats. Cool to see, we kept our visit with them as short as possible so as to not to disturb them too much.
I did another Autotest last Friday in the Volvo with Woolbridge Motor Club at the Clay Pigeon Raceway. I had great fun once again.
I stripped and re assembled the fuel related parts of the carb, all looked okay. I assume i achieved nothing in doing this short the knowledge that i likely wasted my time.
I got a rush of keen-nosity and pulled the head off the Land Rover last night. I didn’t really want to, but the moment grabbed me and I did it. I am glad it’s off, as I can see that there was one wet head bolt, suggesting that the gasket was letting water past. As it’s off now it’s an opportunity to get everything cleaned up and new gaskets everywhere. This was the spark plug inspection and compression testing, thanks to Dan for the compression tester. Then the removal of the head: And that’s as far as I have gotten, now I neeed to do a proper inspection of the head and block etc.
