Not that big I imagine, looking at the mother Mike

Cured the wife's Polo of squeaking rear brakes and handbrake sticking on. I don't know what they make brake shoes out of (original VW) but they leave a sticky black residue which seems to form rust on the inside of the drums and make everything stick and squeal. After a good clean, all is now quiet and brakes are spot on! Plenty of "meat" left on the shoes. Next job is the slow tickover/stall when cold (Usually whilst you close the garage door!) but I'm guessing that will be a VAG computer cure!

I sorted out an electrical problem on my Mitsubishi 4x4 today - put a new festoon bulb in the interior light! And I didn't even use a coder to tell me what the fault was!

Today I took my MGF down off the stands for the first time in many months after rebuilding the gearbox and fitting a new clutch.
It fired up first time and I took it for a run up the street, and to my relief it has a full box of gears, and no leaks as a bonus.
A proper test drive will have to wait until I insure it for the summer in a month or so. Just the timing belts to do now and it will be ready for sale.
One MG in the garage is enough for me, and I do love my ZT.

Tomorrow the ZT gets a bit of attention. I plan on finally getting around to changing a dead fog light bulb, and sorting out a marker light that works one week but not the next.
Today it's working but I'm sure the warning light will be annoying me again before long.

Got up was sick. Went bed. Got up 2 hours latter feeling dog ruff but pushed threw th pain of re flux and lack of peristalsis.

(I have this... Do you...) The esophagus functions solely to deliver food from the mouth to the stomach where the process of digestion can begin. Efficient transport by the esophagus requires a coordinated, sequential motility pattern that propels food from above and clears acid and bile reflux from below. Disruption of this highly integrated muscular motion limits delivery of food and fluid, as well as causes a bothersome sense of dysphagia and chest pain. Disorders of esophageal motility are referred to as primary or secondary esophageal motility disorders and categorized according to their abnormal manometric patterns.

Any way enough of windging moaning and poor me syndrome so i Looked through window and it was raining.... Did I check if boot was leaking Naaaaa. So spent hours on th forum instead.

Also suffered acid reflux today, didn't fix my thermostat, wobbly exhaust, steering pump/belt, or repaint my roof.


Looked at ZTs and ZSs on Autotrader/Ebay instead...

Walked my dog for five miles, yesterday was spent washing the crud off the ZT and Mrs MB's 75.........I'm loving the housing estate they're building up the road from me, and the mud track the main road out of the village has become

What a bunch of poorly old geezers!
FWIW I had a bout of acid reflux the other day as well...Thought I was having a coronary. The government recently banned Zantac which works a treat for me so it was a matter of chewing on a couple of antacids.

John, thanks for the compliment on the MGF. Its Volcano Orange, quite a striking colour.
