In Third Gear
Picked this little beauty up yesterday, and had my first exploratory run of 30 miles through the West Midlands back roads.
She's just had a new clutch, but needs a little fettling under the bonnet....... There's an intermittent misfire, especially at the top end, and a general laziness to pull any revs from tickover, water weeping from the rad expansion tank, and just about every seal has perished. All of this, coupled with a steering box that is actively trying to kill me is going to make the 80 mile journey home on Monday very interesting!
I'll clean the points today and hopefully pick up a new coil, leads and plugs and pray to the LR gods that we locate the so far mythical 50mph
