It's Aiden's fault ..... he's screwed the system somehow ....... posting 18 pix in one post

 

[Thomas7740]

Don’t think he has enough posts to post an attachment

 

[Regy53]

I can’t view it either so I would ask what type of file it is,

I would also say get 5 posts under your belt and repost

Hopefully out of fibreglass, don’t hold your breat, I’ve not done fibreglass before.

Well, latest thing to be done on the little 801,
I put 3new glow/heater plugs in.
After checking all the old one on the bench,
Turns out only one of the old ones was working and the nut was loose on that one.
The other 2 , one did nothing at all , the other one shorted out straight away.
Now the new ones are in. She starts straight up.
After 4 years of pissing about with it, it never even crossed my mind that the glow plugs would be the problem.
Silly things you over look and do obvious as well.

And on top of that a friend popped over to see me and confirmed that the tracks are to tight and making it judder so much.
That’s the next job to do on her, not for a few weeks now tho.

Possibly, something to look at at a later date tho.
More interesting projects to be getting on with at the moment.
