Mk IV, Superblower, CRS and other Continuation Cars Forum / Mk 1V cooling problem

« on: September 24, 2012, 14:20:34 »

If the fan is not cutting in all the time and your strips are not showing high temperature then all appears well.
   
   I'd try the sender first as it's an easier and cheaper option.
   
   As John says guage out should be the last resort.
   
   Replacing should be fairly straight forward, but I personally would get someone to do it for me. I always find it easier and more reassuring if a pro does it!
   
   Fingers crossed for you.

General Forum / Why Goodwood is great ...

Andy, it really must be something to have raced at the revival, well done and hopefully the first of many. I'm not a racer, but if I were it would also be where I wanted to be.
   
   As an ambassador for AC and the Owners Club you're a very good one, so you deserve your run out there. I hope you thoroughly enjoyed yourself. I for one feel hard work has it's rewards.
   
   Congratulations to you.

Uwe,
   
   Beautifully done, you've even got a nice "AC" tool roll.

Looks a great car!
   
   Incidentally I had side pipes on my last car and agree with your statement entirely. I used to feel like i'd been boxed around the ears by the time I got anywhere.... Looked great though!

I don't think that car was ever available at that price. Maybe the auctioneer was a little "Miffed" that it was withdrawn?
   
   It's outrageously low as an estimate.

Don't "big" him up too much or we won't be able to do a thing with him!
   
   :-)
   
   I agree he's a lovely guy and a credit to have on board.

   The first paragraph will cheer you "Surrey Boys" up"
   
   Best get yourselves a Tractor. Then at least you can hold everybody up!.... Even the caravans!!!

Reality is Gus that I borrowed that pic from an American Site and so I wouldn't rush over if I were you.
   
   In Lincolnshire we have a saying "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story!"
   
   This is probably more indicative of home!

It wasn't just my children I was thinking of exporting, but I was rather recommending a lavish Surrey/Continental education upon all children of a school age. If a bike is the cost of joining the Surrey set then so be it!
   
   Judging by Mr. Legate's contribution Sussex isn't up to the mark I'm afraid. His needs would have been more than adequately served by a Lincolnshire Grammar! He could even have had a similar career, but instead of Cobras it would have been taking pictures of Porsches and Lambos!
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   But it's not all bad in agriculture!

We need to hatch a cunning plan to send all our children to the continent for schooling!.... Or Surrey???
