Re: Nats diary 2022
Went out to Eudunda today after the kickoff this morning- would have made a point of going to Birdwood after we did a bit of maintenance back in the motel if I had have known EfiJy was there

When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Re: Nats diary 2022
Picked up a bit of treasure- literally- found a FJ grille badge in a bucket of stuff in the toilet and some nice straight FB door stainless on the ground. Also found what I was really after - a couple of decent horn contacts so we can use them as templates to start making them

Re: Nats diary 2022
I found a couple of ideas for bonnet mods on the 2 door but had no grinder with me sadly
Then we were off for lunch at a brewery in Tanunda for a couple of sensational stouts and a pizza

Re: Nats diary 2022
Today started out as it should , went for breakfast to say goodbye to our FB/EK family and catch up with Stoney, Sherri and Firekraka for our trip home , had breakfast at Tanunda bakery and noticed a puddle of oil under the old girl ( the ute not Mrs Blacky)
We had adjusted the tappers the night before so I figured it was a leaky rocker cover , we headed off and stopped at Nuriootpa auto pro to buy some oil, a rocker cover gasket and some degreaser , got 2 out of 3 then came out to another puddle of oil .
Had a look and it wasn’t the rocker cover, the harmonic balancer had chucked a wobbly and oil was pissing out the front timing cover seal
Neil and Stoney headed off and we limped the ute back to Mike and Anne’s place in Adelaide- Mike had heard on the grapevine we had a problem and offered a good secondhand balancer and all the tooling required to swap it over
We got back , and stripped the dodgy one out of the car
Farewell Brekky , just before it turned to custard …..
Working out a strategy on the side of the road with Mike
Tear down time - note specialist tooling

Re: Nats diary 2022
With the ute ready to accept the new bits we went in search of a new timing cover seal - found one , and a new rocker cover gasket , at only the 5th place we went to ……. So we threw it back together , changed the gasket and she was good to go
