Back home from “Deleted Profile” we packed more stuff into Craigs ML, amd while he rearranged the load on his trailer, I cooked some sausages for lunch.
After which we put the HOPEMOBILE onto some ramps and axle stands.
Battery had changed and trying to start it failed.
Cowl hinge attachment points were partly missing, so just rested in place.
I also removed all the LED’s from the cowl.
Wiring and a switch box will be next, once I figure out how and what needs removing.
Craig had a quick nap……
Removing the flywheel and cooling fin cover as well as the starter motor cover exposed why, despite a screwdriver in the ignition, it would not start.
Having offered Sally, who was working from 6.00am on Sunday, and Craig dinner, we messed around briefly after seeing problem no 1 and then made a hard stop, closed shop and pushed the tractor under cover.
Dinner was very good, and the company great.
I had also moved Scruffy, the Micra up the alley till Craigs son collects it.
So a busy day, and good weekend all together.
