****** Essex PH Meet Thurs 19th March *****

[Fbloke]

Its that time again so do come along to the Lodge at South Woodham Ferrers and meet a few like minded car enthusiasts. We get quite a variety of cars with a few exotics now and again and as the evenings begin to get lighter we get a good turn out.

There is good quality economically priced food and plenty of parking space.The link below provides directions. There are generally folks there from about 7:00pm.

We would be pleased to see you all and if you have'nt been befor dont worry its always good to meet new people.

Fullbridge got the car through the MOT on Friday, picking it up tomorrow morning - so the old girl will be there on the 19th.

With the garage freed up I did a minor service on the Rover last night.
Spark plug number 4 was dripping in oil... Piston Rings gone? Valve guide gone?
Either way not good.
It's running OK despite this - any ideas how long it will last and what is likely to happen?
I guess the oil is being diluted with petrol... the plug will not spark after a while... oil is being burnt with the petrol...

count me in hope its warmer my walnuts(nutsack) just gone back to normal from last time if its cold the dodge will come out

The Saab has an increasingly worrying gearbox noise, and is soon to be in need of an MOT, so not sure what i'll be there in. But as the nights are getting slightly longer, i'll try and be there in something.

Okay,
Definitely not going to be in the Saab, as the MOT runs out the day before and i can't get it done before hand.
Hopefully there will be something interesting in work that day... otherwise who knows what i'll turn up in?

No harm in getting some practice in for next week

Two's company, three's a crowd

I need to put some miles on a brand new Sachs Race Engineering clutch.

Forecast might be mild and dry for this evening. Bit of cloud cover to reduce likelihood of night frost.

Any takers for a little "night run" maybe ???
