The Big Freeze.....

Its still too cold to use spray adhesive to stick bonnet insulation in place, or to fit extra boiler insulation and seal it with water activated adhesive 'diplag' finishing cloth. The old temporary insulation will have to go back on until summer arrives!

Reduced to doing odds and ends like repacking pumps, fuel valves, and piston rods. Decided to change the crankcase oil as well. The old oil is probably fine, but as its been in the car quite a while am changing it to be 100% sure. However having to warm up the new oil to make it easier to pour!

I am hoping to get the car to the Drive-it Day event at the Royal Oak at Bishopstone on 21st April - provided things warm up!
