Out for Australia Day run.

 We went on a local club run to celebrate Australia Day.

On the way home the tacho decided to play up showing idle at 4000rpm and anything over that at 8000rpm. Its working normal now, must have been the heat!

Rusty Fuel Tanks.



 I have had trouble lately with fuel starvation. It ended up being from sediment dropped from rusty fuel tanks. I have removed both tanks, cleaned them and sealed them with POR15 tank sealer. I keep asking myself, why didn't you seal them while restoring the car?
