Good for you and well done for getting through all that - twins on the red NC too ![]()
STRONG EFFORT ![]()
Not exactly today, but the first time I’ve been underneath since Tizzy came back from MX5 Restorers.
New gear lever selector plate fitted. Whilst there I piped some fresh oil into the gear box with a short piece of hose and a funnel via the fill hole on the box. Much easier this way than grovelling under the car with a pump.
Also had a new brass shifter bush delivered, that didn’t go well, it was a smaller dia than I have fitted so it’s going back.
We enjoyed a beer, oh I replaced rear discs and pads with some lovely Brembos but this is a nicer pic
I have not been here for ages, spent what feels like the last 6 months refitting my kitchen (6 weeks really). My MX5 was relegated to the drive way to make room in the garage for all the new units
.
I have made up for it now, given her a wash and after 12 months of ownership, I have put my number plate on
.
Checked scuttle grommets this morning. Found someone had already been here and done a good enough job, so just cleaned everything up and put it back together again.
If any in the New Forest wants to pick up a couple og new grommets, PM me.
Wow they really went for it on those scuttle grommets. I used less silicone today redoing my whole bathroom😅
Wow! You deserve a nice cold beer after all that effort! Job well done. ![]()

You must be tired out after that install🤣
Today I have replaced my rocker cover, fitted an engine damper, a brake stopper, new engine lift hooks x2. Yesterday I did an engine oil and filter change, Millers synthetic and K&N gold oil filter.
Removed the rear panel (and lights) repositioned boot lock, replaced with new rear panel. I’m a total novice at tinkering, never done anything like this before - no instruction manual, thoroughly enjoyed it and feeling very happy ![]()
Tomorrow: remove centre console to swap in dual fuel/boot release and replace console/heating bulbs.
Put it on the CTEK overnight as haven’t been able to drive in this glorious weather on account of being hit with the lurgy. Not Covid, just coughing & spluttering like in the good old days
