It's quiet(er) ...and it's lumpy

We fitted the silencer this morning, here you can see Chrissy doing just that...

We had a problem working out how to fit the heat guard that surrounds it, but then we found some huge jubilee clips inside a plastic bag containing windscreen wiper stuff, these seemed to be what was required.

We also fitted the roll bar and torque tightened that up (a virtual guarantee that we will be undoing it in the near future)

Starting the engine with silencer on gives a much more restrained note, but still a pleasant sound. In fact it was still noisy enough to set the neighbours car alarm off!


However the clutch doesn't seem to work, and the indicators have stopped working, and the engine is running even more lumpily than before and we have some fluid leking from somewhere... so that was a rather depressing note to leave it on.

Chrissy had to spend the afternoon on school work, (apart from watching the match of course) and Tim won't be able to work on it til next Sunday at the earliest... so no posts til then.
