Mega Service completed. 147444 miles

Hi All,

Previous posting suggested an annual service and seeing to some noisy tappets.

The day after i wrote that the noisy tappet noise got very loud, turning out to be in fact a blown head gasket.

Repairs of this nature are well beyond my skills / mechanical confidence level, so i entrusted the work to my mechanic. £200 later and it's all done.

Whilst Colin did this job, he found my filter service kit in the boot and did that too.

Now have new oil, air and fuel filters.

Will take it steady for a while to make sure Head gasket is ok.

Hope to be at Peterborough on 10th Sept for the LRO show.

See you there.

TTFN
