It's not bad, the car articles are mainly Lambo/fezza etc... would have been nice to read about regular Joe Ph's & their cars..

Hiya Tony !

Have you got another TVR yet then ?

She's safely covered up in my lock up at the moment and will be at least until March, maybe later depending on my progress on my Kit Jeep thing. Had a great year with her last year did almost 3000miles with no real drama. I have no regrets about parting with the Stylus.

I've got a few jobs lined up for next month (maybe 3..) :

1. Sort out the wheelbearing / upright issue I gave up on last year, somehow the upright on the car is distorted and so is the spare one I bought to replace it. A good dollop of Loctite bearing fit should hopefully resolve that.

2. Investigate the vibration on overrun that has developed during the year, either it's the bearing above or the prop is loose on the gearbox or a UJ has gone since last I checked them.

3. My Daughter has now pulled most of the loose bits of dash off and the glovebox lid veneer fell off while trying to get into it Thanks to HOTTY I have a set of nice new veneers to stick on.

4. I'm going to take the injectors out and clean them as the fuel pressure is now maxed out to get the correct air / fuel ratio at wide open throttle (It was SERIOUSLY lean when I bought it yikes ) Problem is the AFR is now too high at idle so I'm going to try cleaning the squirters before I give up and fit some bigger ones biggrin

5. Replace that tiny air filter as that will be restricting the airflow, it's about a 3rd of the size of the original ?

6. Fit the distributorless ignition system I've been working on.

7. fit Braided brake lines

8. General service !

So it's looking busy, but I can't wait for the spring !
Anyway It's good to hear from you, I'll tell her you have been asking about her... getmecoat
