Rebuild 3 imminent!!
Discussion
Recently noticed clattering reappeared so I ran the car over to Racing Green for a second opinion. "Yep it,s not well" came the reply. "Suggest you ring the factory Monday morning". It,s only 2,500 miles since the last rebuild, I am trying to remain chilled about this but it really is a joke,you can,t imagine the stick I am getting from my customers. Quote the twat from lunchtime "Geoff, my lawnmower has had 1 spark plug in 5 years, its, a Honda!! I don,t suppose you want to swap" Unquote. Felt like plugging him, R-Sole.
Sorry guys did not give you all the information. My car was bought in November 2000. Month of build! not sure. John Kerridge did hold it for me for 3 months, so at least pre September build.First rebuild 5K,second rebuild 12K, gone again at 14.5K. First indication at Racing Green finger followers,engine sounds as it did to previous rebuilds. I have been driving for 34 years and have never had an engine rebuilt. I have requested that the engine be replaced, watch this space.
APMAUTO said: hi pubman bad news,have you got to ring the factory or are racing green doing it on your behalf? worth having the cam cover taken off to see whats gone, could be just a soft shim(not unknown)fingers crossed.at least you dont have to go far for a stiff drink!
best wishes andy(apm automotive)

Looks like a Blackpool visit again via Racing Green,
stiff drinks! I think I have had enough for one day!
