I was out of action for 10 days waiting for a new guide tube and a throwout bearing. I only amassed 800 miles on my gearbox when all of a sudden I couldn't get into gear. I took the the trans off and discovered my T.O. bearing & guide tube was thrashed big time. I didn't grease these parts properly and wound up putting 100,000 miles worth of wear on them in short order. Luckily the trans didn't get hurt (930 box). I re-assembled and what a difference a little synthetic grease will do! I stopped over at Pauls (Lotus65) and took him for a little thrashing around Mpls. Everything is good in the world again!

oh, man!
i was going to start a thread "i can't believe that car" 'cause that's all i was saying after bill left. or it was going to be: stop. re-evaluate everything. begin again. anyway, thanks for the ride, bill. that car just needs to be seen to be appreciated because my little vid doesn't do it justice! i got distracted, you guy's will understand. we need to set up a camera mount and some strategically placed mics to catch the fury. http://home.mn.rr.com/bellefleur/123_2329.AVI the combo of great looks and unreal performance, it's one of a kind. |
