Hi guys 'n girls!! voil? qui sont venus "me" voir au boulot!!!!.
....

Super kool non!!! ? Sur le port de Monaco, pendant ma pose, un piti bavardage super sympa d'une demi heure, pleine de questions et r?ponses, et multiple photos de tout bord, et hop zont repris la route direction l'est de l'Italie, apr?s un tour complet du circuit.
Super sympa les gar?ons, mais ils ont crus que j'?tais de la police, quand je les ais "intercept?s":lol . Voil? un moment magique grace au l?gendaire london cab. Ils m'ont dit qu'ils viendrait nous voir sur notres site et de poster quelques photos de ce moment. A suivre....... sur leurs blog.......

J'ais retrouv? l'adresse de leurs blog: www.itsonthemeter.com.
Ronald alias " Taxi" nous avais d?j? inform? de leurs voyage. So long!!!

tr?s sympathiques photos, bravo, belle rencontre!

G?nial !

trop bon !

J'adore la plaque d'immat' perch?e sur le coffre de toit ^^ . Et les anti-brouillards derri?re la calandre, comme la Peugeot 202...
Je suis en train d'?tudier la possibilit? de monter qqch du genre sur mon cab, sans trop p?naliser l'arriv?e d'air pour le refroidissement... (depuis le d?lire sur le pare-buffle-pied-thon sur le post de ggbuny)...

Une vraie voiture de rallye ce cab !

Genial merci pour les photos. Vraiment sympa comme rencontre.
J'aime bien le cot? baroudeur avec les ailes arri?res d?coup? et le capot avec les attaches rapides pour decapsuler juste le dessus.

Bye

j'aime bien aussi le Schnorkel, et le treuil !

c'est fonctionnel ?

Salut salut!! Oui Burnett tout est op?rationnel et fonctionne tr?s bien , le capot a ?t? modifi? pour permettre son ouverture car avec le pare-choc et le treuil devant cel? posait un probl?me, de m?me le schnorkel est r?ellement raccord? valait mieus d'ailleurs aux vues de ce qu'ils ont travers? avec miss "Hannah"(voir leurs blog pour voir d'ou il viennent), les suspensions ont ?t? r?hauss?es ce qui lui donne avec la M?ga galerie un vrais "baroud style", la cloison a ?t? enlev?e pour une meilleurs exploitation du volume, et du coup la caisse a ?t? g?n?reusement renforc?e avec un arceau qui coure tout du long de l'int?rieur du cab. Par contre le moteur est un "Genuine" 2.7 atmo et tourne ? la perfection. Et plein d'autres d?tails, comme les durites silicone, chouette boulot de pr?pas en tout cas. Bravo les gars!!!!!!!!! et vraiment suuuuper syyympa? long road to them. Ha oui j'oublier une chose tr?s importante, si j'ais bien lu et vu le compteur affich? une course a 135000 et des poussi?rres de Pounds clap .

Bonsoir,

Les photos ne sont rien, par rapport ? leurs histoires sur leur site.

Bon lecture.



Ciao,

Ronald

Hey guys,

Great to meet you the other day. We were worried we were in trouble at first when we saw the radio on your belt! We get stopped by the police everywhere so we're kind of used to it now...

We're currently in Zagreb, Croatia getting some work done on the cab. We have a few problems - some 'judder' coming from the clutch, the battery compartment rusting really badly and now the fuel tank has started leaking along the seam
If you guys have any advice on this problems we'd be really grateful to hear it.

Thanks,

Johno, Paul and Leigh,

hum pas bien ?a
Heu salut et Bravo

- l'embrayage de dirais usure du m?canisme (ou purge a faire ...)
- le compartiment batterie est pourri a cause d'une fuite d'acide il y 6 mois
- le r?servoir il doit y avoir moyen d'adapter un autre si il est pourri

mon anglais est nul donc voila la traduction Google le sens a l'air bon

Version anglaise

umm not that much
Uh hello and Bravo

- the clutch would wear mechanism (or bleed to do ...)
- the battery compartment is rotten because of a leak acid there 6 months
- the tank there must be another way to adapt if it is rotten

@ +raph

Dear Johno,

I am not a mechanic, but I would like to help. I do not know what the judder is. Sorry.

The rust around the battery could be due to a leak from the battery, so pour lots of water all around the battery, to get rid of the acid. Check the acid levels in the battery.

The fuel tank maybe has rusted due to the salt on the roads in northern Europe. In London, a garage would just change the fuel tank, but I know that when a new fuel tank is not available, such as on vintage cars, the solution is to coat the inside of the fuel tank, with a coating of resin. Obviously, the inside of the fuel tank would have to be scrupulously clean, and that would take a long time.



Good luck with your travels.



Byeeeeee,

Ron

Thanks guys.

The battery rust is just due to all the salt on the roads in N. Europe as Taxi said (and also we didn't rust treat it properly before we left). Now we have pop-riveted a new plate so should be okay.

We've managed to get the fuel tank re-welded so hopefully that is now okay too.


The clutch - basically we get a lot of 'shake' when moving away or changing gear at low speeds. We thought it might be related to the gearbox or clutch but aren't really sure. We *think* it might be some kind of contamination in the gearbox or clutch if it wasn't sealed properly...

Redear Johno,

Could the judder not be from a loose prop shaft, or drive shaft.?



Rebyeeeeeee,

Ron

Hiho Johno's n all!! Nice to hear from you four, sorry to've scared you that much on Monaco guys, but I've just had a very hard mopped rush on the circuit to get to you and I was still in the "speed" . So, since you had bad surprise with miss Hannah? Lovely you've got sort with somes, except the clutch, it seems, by your informations and my understanding it seems that you have a lil'leak around the clutch, from the engine or the gearbox and some oily drops gets on the clutch disque itself and the "contact" with the main engine disque is sleepery on a part of it, that's why you get somes chaked at low speed. Check the oil levels of both gear 'n engine, to make sure witch side's bad. If it is you'll have to change the bad o'ring that failed (simple, but heavy long work). Hope you'll get OK with that.. Here's my mail adress: minow@infonie.fr just in case off, and you can also use it to send the pictures we've take in monaco I'll be able to "stuck" them on that post. So long' n veeeery long road to all. Byyyyeeeeee!!!
