  1. Any suggestions welcome... After a long period laid up, I am trying to get my 2002 k series started. The starter is turning at good speed, but the bendix is not engaging. Have taken it off and it seems to be free enough, but added some lube anyway and jiggled it for a bit. re-attached and added an extra good battery via jump leads to give it some extra oomph. Still no joy. Have also tried moving the car in gear to change the position of the flywheel. Anything else to try?
  2. I was waving from the battered jeep. On my way to Chipping Norton for the under 7's rugby festival. Lovely day for a blat.... and a festival.
  3. Proxy spot SWMBO on a drive in the village (The car not her).
  4. Mix up some latex self levelling compound and fill the joint. It's tough stuff and really easy to lay as it's self levelling!
  5. I was at the Scouts street fair, you drove past with a Morgan following you. GN12 I think aero and helmet. *thumb*
  6. Thanks for the reply BM sent
  7. Just on the offchance. Anyone got one gathering dust in the garage, that you would like to convert into cash?
  8. Spotted between Moreton in Marsh and Stow on the Wold. 11.30am. Lovely morning, but traffic looked a bit heavy.
  9. I have a 2002 R300 with shurlock and MBE. If you want me to check anything specific I can. Just let me know what you want tested on what pins. Check here for symptoms of an MBE failure. here This was the experience of Richy when his MBE played up.
  10. Hi Simon, Can I take set two please, if Ian is opting out of those. Alastair
  11. GN13 xxx on the broadway roundabout. I did wave, but your concentration was obviously already on the hill..... and not looking for an idiot in a battered old Jeep.
  12. T773 *** Parked on the school road markings. Spotted on my way back from an emergency visit to the chiropractors tonight.
  13. My wing came off at mallory yesterday at about 100+ mph , was stuck with what looks like black sealant. If i am using the bighead approach as suggested in this thread, will p40 fibreglass compound adhere to carbon fibre?
  14. Many thanks to Martin for spotting me yesterday night. Being my birthday i decided to go for a blat after work, and headed off up the fosse way . Got to a nice straight just before northleach roundabout and thought i would overtake the TT in front of me ...floored the throttle (ok maybe a bit too enthusiastically) and 😳 twang! slowed down to a stop throttle pedal limp . So i pulled over took of the bonnet, confirmed throttle cable snapped. Opened boot cover to look for something to bodge with, one can tyre weld, one pair sandals (cool obviously, not the beardy type). Hmm. Then sound of nice car slowing down, looked up Noble stopped, door opens. Whats the problem says the kind gentleman so i told him. I've got one in the garage and i live 5 minutes away i'll be back in 15. And to cut a long story short he was, with tools!! So thanks again Martin, hope to see you about. (Ok, only been L7C member for about a month so hadn't been made aware that i should be carrying a spare! along with clutch i gather.)
