    Howards Nissan Weston Super Mare

    So having sold the red tegg to the lad from Norniron i bought the Nissan Navara (see Gallery). I bought it from Howards Nissan in Weston Super Mare.

    Alternator

    Might be needing a new one :cry: Anyone with a DVM out there measure your voltage at the fusebox so I can be sure - mines reading 12.1V and it should be 13+ at least. Probably the reason why my battery was dead the other day - but the new one has lasted 3 days now so I think it must be...

    Back on the road again !

    Well spent most of Friday afternoon dodging the rain and re-fitting my alternator. The new brackets from Moss motors in the states arrived in the morning (after 3 weeks!!) so I gave up my usual Friday afternoon ride round cwmcarn to get the tegg back together. Could not finish the job as the...

    Muck Off

    While I'm waiting for the replacement scissor plate for my broken JRSC belt tensioner I thought I'd give the engine bay a clean - plus it was covered in coolant from when it snapped and boiled over (on the way to brands last Saturday). So looking under the sink for all sorts of cleaner to use I...

    Throttle Body

    Well I think I might have cured my problem. Drove it on Holiday then left it parked up on the campsite for a week. went to drive to the shops and it was idling crazy. Every second it would ramp up to 2.5k then down again. She drove OK home but a bit jerky in town and looked like a prat revving...

    Aircon Drainage Pipe

    Just loading my car up this afternoon for my holidays and noticed that the drivers carpet was soaking - likewise the passengers too. Couldn't think why it would be, then checked the aircon. Pulled up the carpets and could see water running out of the blower at the centre vent right back under...

    Warped Discs?

    Coming back from Putsborough today had to do a bit of heavy braking and the teg steering wheel shook like mad. I could also feel the juder through my foot. So I think the last track day warped the discs :shock: I was a good boy and did the warm down runs up and down the runway and parked on...

    New suspension

    As you might know - i've never been a real fan of the Spoon progressives and after looking at the photos of the hullavington day i can see that the teg is still rocking and rolling on them. Plus they were clunking about. So i think I need it looking at either the roll bar bushes have gone or it...

    Sumps

    Getting the Spoon Sump I bought from Livvy fitted by my local garage and the chap there was absolutely amazed that the standard Honda sump has no baffles of any kind :shock: So I would suggest that those running standard sumps should double, tripple, quadruple :lol: check that your running...
