Although I have thanked him in private for this generous offer, let me publicly aknowledge the help and advice Ruairidh has cheerfully given to me, many others on the forum and probably elsewhere. thanks again Russell

Russel,

I have left you a voicemail - I am happy to loan you anything I have here that may be of use to you, tools, spares etc.

I can arrange delievry to where the car is being stored.

Get in touch if this would be of help to you.

Cheers

R


Bloody hell Russell - I was only joking! I intend to profit from this pseudo generosity handsomely! Expect my bill - soon!

Re: Spares to Carry on a trip

If your car has a 22FZB carburettor carry a spare plug which fit below the jets. I lost one on Lewis a couple of years ago, fortunately I had a spare.

Also carry some superglue -- the petrol feed union is a weak point and past over tightening ( not me guv ) leads to a hair line crack which then becomes a problem when far from home. A squirt of super glue followed by immediate tightening will get you home and more. I had this problem on the last Eurotour and found this to be a good solution.
