God, It's Been Ages Since I Last Wrote Here!
Posted on: Wednesday October 8, 2008
Well quite a lot has happened since my last journal. Some time ago I replaced the front wiring loom, no real issues, just some very tender finger tips! At the same time I fitted a smart screen intermittent wiper system. God it's good! One click or wiper switch, pause up to 2 mins, another click and it carries on wiping at that interval - just right for drizzle! I thought I'd upgrade the suspension, after lots of umming and ahhing I decided to go for gas shocks all round. The rear were gas...
More Work Done!

Last weekend (or was it the one before?) I tackled the clutch master cylinder. What a hassle it was trying to remove the master cylinders cover. The screws were all rusted solid and getting it free took the best part of the day. Once that was done the rest was easy, the only slight complication was having to reroute the clutch hose as the original one routed to the from of the cylinder and the replacement to the rear.

I've fitted a 2 speed wiper motor and smartscreen intermittent wiper and washer thingy. Although I haven't got the washer bit to work (need to look at that today). But whilst I was working on it I noticed there was liquid in the drivers footwell that wasn't there before. My first thought was "how did water get there when it's been in the garage the whole time?" but now I realise it's not water it's brake fluid, and by the looks of things it's the clutch master cylinder that's the problem. Oh...

On 2 counts! Firstly I bought the spinner conversion and started fitting it (a couple of weeks ago now) and it was still proving to be a mare - mainly the access and getting the o-rings to stay put. So I got underneath with my leadlamp and had a really good look up inside where it bolts together and where I thought there was no o-ring low-and-behold there it was. Then I looked at the oil cooler connector piece and, surprise surprise, there was one there too. How could I have been so stupid?!...
