Unusual jobs.

Our work this week has been very varied, amongst our other work we have had two very different cars in this week, an Alvis TD with no oil pressure showing on the oil gauge which meant making sure that there was oil pressure from the main gallery then checking out the oil feed to the gauge. The outcome of this was that it appears that the flexible hose is closing up at certain times. We are awaiting a new hose and hopefully that will solve the problem so watch this space.
The other car was a TVR Griffith 500 that was difficult to start when it was hot. We carried out the usual checks and nothing obvious showed up. So we made several enquiries about the best way to resolve this problem, and it transpires that a company makes an update called "Hot Start" which has been designed for this particular car it is now on order so again watch this space.
It looks as if next week will not be quite so diverse on the work side.
We will be back to the servicing and M.O.Ts.
