July 8, 201412 yr comment_202339 No billing for hearing aid In short, I blew the gearbox last week, got another f16 and fitted it tonight.Went for a test drive and yep lovely all sorted.Had a tear up on the way home BRAAAA lost fith AGAIN and plenty of noise.So gentle drive home, pulled out the cluster while it's still Fucn hot!Only other cluster we have is a f18 but after a few hours of very mid swear words later we realize it's isn't going to work.So it's sitting in the garage sulking and waiting for a f28 now.I'll chuck another f16 in it for the euro trip though but looks like I'm missing billing in it and possibly retro rides in it.

July 8, 201412 yr comment_202340 That's a bit of a blow Dave, can you not limp it there with four gears? Report
July 8, 201412 yr comment_202341 Well i was was within an inch of my life tonight of repeating my trick of two years ago and buying another cav to attend Billing, the blue cav of ebay, that is. It wasnt expensive and it did at least work, the insurance seemed a bit steep, most players wanting over £200 for a basic classic policy. Decided to leave it be in the end and buy some new parts for peters engine. Have new cam belt kit. Water pump, thermostat and oil cooler ordered to get it back running. Going to stick with what i have, will take longer in the end, but its more likely peter will see the road again, unlike if i buy another working cav that is. Report
