  1. Have a great day Wayne Iain
  2. This is why tractors have fly/airborne debris screen’s in front of the radiator. These sheets need to be lifted out and cleaned on a regular basis, especially when hay making. Iain
  3. VHP was fitted with a ST short works under shield from new. It’s has absolutely no impact on cooling. Iain
  4. Happy Birthday Eric, hope you have a great day All the best Iain
  5. Hope you’ve had a great day Christian Iain
  6. Great work as always Marco, hope it runs well. Iain
  7. Hi George Great to hear you have been able to find out about the cars previous life. If the engine was built by Revingtons ( Karl K as James says) then all the components will have been matched to give optimum performance. It will then have been setup on their rolling road and needles selected and tweaked as necessary. They will also have ensured that the distributor advance profile is correct for that specification of piston size, compression, camshaft. Removing the noisy exhaust will have changed the engine breathing and you are now guessing as to what needles are correct for your
  8. No problem, I am well used to scientific rigor, having spent 25 years in the pharmaceutical industry. My point is simple, they sponsored the work, they chose the test procedure, they selected the comparator products. Independent no. Useful, yes with limitations. My observations with Lanoguard are certainly not an RCT, but I know what I see and I like the results. Iain
  9. Sponsored by Bilt! No surprises there then. Iain
  10. They recommend every year……..I applied it 4 years ago, have never reapplied and I have done probably 6k miles or more of road rallies,including in snow and ice, and it’s doing it’s job exceptionally well. I almost think their guidance is negative marketing.
  11. Yes I was out Marshalling on Class R , back to get warm after a very early start! I did pass Phil T and Chris M, leaving Wiscombe at about 05.40 on my way to Harcombe. Iain
  12. Agreed , easy to use and very durable. Also environmentally friendly.
  13. Slapton, yesterday late morning. I did wonder if you would be out and about Derek, great day for Tr’ing…..mines undergoing some tlc hence the Elan had a day out.
  14. I would also use Lanoguard. It’s Lanolin extracted from sheep’s wool. Easily removed with a their own remover or a proprietary degreaser. From my on use I can tell you when applied to the underside of the car, it sticks like the proverbial and works very effectively. If I have a negative comment, it’s that if applied correctly it does not require reapplication every year with our sort of usage. I’ve done about 12k miles since applied and it’s still doing it’s job brilliantly Iain
  15. Surely worst case scenario with monthly membership option is that most/ all members join for the normal car using season! Spring to Autumn…….now that would be an own goal of exceptional proportions! Halving revenue at one stroke, genius! Iain
