Plenty of nice lanes round shropsshire

No but Shropshire and Warks have some good lanes and they're only an hour or so away I'm in the Black Country now but used to live in Cambs and still do a lot of laning over that side of the country

@jamesDiscoTD5 not many lanes round the midlands…(I originate near the land of chocolate) So your closer the Black Country ?

I can't answer for the whole country but for the areas I've gone laning in, there are generally comments that are within the last 12 months - especially in the more popular areas and/or areas with active reps. I'm not familiar with laning in the...

That is how I used to do it, are you refitting header tank cap once water is coming our of the rad bung? then carry on filling via the stat bung, having the header tank cap on when header tank level is correct is the important bit, then carry on...

Well what a productive day, I feel better now that I’ve started to get stuff painted, its either that of the fumes off the thinners. Cleaned the rear calipers and painted them red, cleaned rust converted and painted the rear hubs and drive...

Had a Quick Look on https://wiltscouncil.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=43d5a86a545046b2b59fd7dd49d89d22 Think the restriction is in the river crossing. But as you say the OS map shows restriction but definitive map shows as BOAT...

Using OS there is a section now on restriction. Yep this used to be all open.there is a very small sign on the track near Eason grey saying of the changes(looks like a local A4 made sign) spotted while walking the dog last week. Info taken...

Hate the way they have ROW then restricted then back to ROW on that section That Ford is deep in the winter

There is the Foose Way running South from the airport. Apart from the ford halfway along the byway it's hardly worth the visit, apart from short cut maybe

Green pipe should go back on here

Yep thats broke ;). The green hose looks like it could be the Vac advance from the distributor does the other end go up to the intake manifold J

Change of plan on the paint front, opted for Jotun jotamastic 90 epoxy 2pk which is directed to metal, galve or ali single coat application mixed black semi gloss. Again it’s a marine grade, abrasion resistant paint which should last at least 20+...

You have a Ford near bourbon and a length of right of way. Heading towards Cirencester & Cotswold airport. A lot of construction on the new A417 may have closed a lane. some of the lanes on the Motocyle sites are the restricted ones. Plenty of...

The rh wing gave up the battle and is now off. The bulkhead is still looking OK for some small repairs, a strip & galvanise and refit. The lower steering UJ was knocking and an MOT failure, but turns out it was not clamped tight enough on the...

The wings are finally off. Time for another 3D model and record of as-is: Link to the 3D model is here: 3D Model of engine bay There is a special corner of hell reserved for the person who thought bolting the outer wings on was a great idea...

I used to run what ever was going on the engine on the v8 SU s(so 20W was been used) Sounds like the right stuff then. Must be the 3 in 1 is thinner so allows the piston/needle to rise quicker Good to see your still progressing with the project.

What oil is in the dash pot? (Forgot which is which… 1 let’s it rise/drop slower) this would mean a bit more fuel needed

Having taken the boy out for a ride today and having it go pretty well with only one detonation in the intake I came home and gave the mixture screw a "tweak" towards the dark richer side. I will take the car out again and see if this has...

@dag019 Where in the Cotswold do you want to start/finish?

I did spray the lock with brake cleaner and worked the catch a little. Then I loosened the stricker a little, just to give it a little movement, and I shut the door a few times to line up the catch and then retightened the stricker.

sounfds like a classic earth fault, check your earth straps! remove bolts clean n replace. alternative could be main feed or connector block to fuses, but my money is on earths flasher relay needs replacing but is red herringfor other stuff

Reminds me of a rare occasion I took landy to work 80 miles in the rain... squeak squeak squeak from the wipers.... then on the A road all of a sudden peace and quiet..... ahhhhhh bliss... then the reality that the silence was due to the drivers...

+ one for trailewise. I’ve used it for lanes around Kent when planning a couple of days with another forum member. I agree that Glass is pretty dead in Kent… not even got a rep at moment!

You should tell him to chop it for an old defender. Much more reliable. 🤣

My boss at work has a noo Lotus, it's been a right pain ... Day afor yesterdi he got a puncture in a rear tyre, crept to the garage who said can't fix it it's in an awkward spot, you need a noo tyre ... Boss calls AA, who comes takes him home...

Dunno, I haven't looked for years but my last experience was as you have said.... I still have mine and would have sold it for over a grand......Keep in mind that one is in Liverpool though..... surprised it doesn't have someone still sleeping in...

Puncture fixed at ATS. It took a fair amount of weights to balance the wheel though!😂

You just need to re proof these as they are fabric and no hard shell to keep dry. Howling moon have another fabric cover to keep them dry,make sure this is in a good condition.

And because dirty grinding and drilling jobs get laborious, I finished a b pillar off. Just needs some sealer at the bottom. Lanoguard grease sandwich between the body, shims and brackets
