Got an invite to attend the Duxford Spitfire day on August 5th 2007. You have to attend in your own Spitfire, get there by a certain time and not leave before a certain time either. This is fine as the ticket is free - should be a nice day out if it doesn't rain! See here for more info. With this in mind I decided to do a quick service so bought some plugs, oil and filter - should have bought a distributor cap but forgot - doh. Changed the oil etc and took it for a test drive and noticed that oil had collected on the chassis near to the brake union. It turned out that the oil pressure sensor was leaking so I whipped a spare off an old engine and replaced it - job done.
Vitesse
Spent an hour or so cleaning out the boot of all the rubbish and debris that had accumulated. Located the Vitesse log - used to draw diagrams of how things go together as well as a catalog of which boxes have which parts in them.
Parts removed:
- Rear valance
- Rear quarter panels
- Boot hinges
