Kit Car Electronics Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 We made it past Rayne before my engine died... First breakdown in 17 years but ended on the trailer of shame :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nertman Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Had a quick spin then onto parent duties saw several westfield type cars go past my drive while I was giving the chim clean over this afternoon hope the breakdown wasnt to serious and all are safe and well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Pete Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 Some nice road resurfacing has been done around Essex, the road past the Dog & Gun was lovely - smooth and flowing if a little narrow, just a shame we caught up with a Peugeot 308 . We nearly made it to Wetherfield when Mike had a little power problem. Hopefully the problem is sorted quickly and nothing expensive.

Kit Car Electronics Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 The best kind of fault- a free to fix one. Dodgy throttle sensor connection - blame the idiot that fiddled with it while fitting an oil cooler! The fuelling was fine as that's based on manifold pressure, but the ignition was retarding to try and hold an 1100 idle at part throttle... Thanks for helping with the recovery, Pete! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Essex Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Sorry couldn't make. Had to deal with a sheered off boat trailer wheel - suspension unit disintegrated. At least I was on a private road doing less than 10 miles an hour. Replaced and ready to head to the South West on Wednesday. Sorry to miss yet another monthly meet on Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Pete Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 Glad you're back up and running for free. My tps is optional, so I can happily run without - maybe your next upgrade if the ecu allows it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
