Track Rods, Track Rod Ends, Wheel Alignment, Heat shield's fixed & wash

Liquid Yellow

Just some images after spending the day with my mates messing about. Decided to get the power washer out and blast the old girl down. Needs some attention in areas but still looks ok

Last run out today for the Williams 3. Went up the bypass to Alderley Edge and seemed to be a bit of an event on with lots of people out and plenty of more modern modded stuff around. The Willy still got appreciation from plenty I’m pleased to say! Doubt I’ll be back out in it for a few months now.

Fault - blower motor regularly stops after about a minute from cold,
Heater Resistor replaced with a cheap Chinese chappie (£15) today in cold and rain, but all is well again.
Mosfet heating up and going open circuit I guess.

Couple of things sorted on mine.

New boot struts fitted thanks to @Alastair. for the link and a big thanks to @ex-Chinese Dave for selling me his Spare Turini that needed a bit of tlc. Had it refurbished over at Piston and Rotor in Bury for a pretty decent price. Also managed to find a matching PS3 with loads of tread and a 2024 date for cheap on eBay for them to put on it.

I found a tool kit with the deeper yellow fastener to finish it off and added a better wheel wrench on some reusable zip ties that fit my bolts.

Just need a boot carpet in decent nick if anyone has one?

Changed the battery in my Keyfob...after 21 years it eventually died!

Got a brand new boxed OEM grill earlier this week for £85 lol. Fitted today.

Side note, anyone know for def if an electrical warning light on the dash is an MOT failure? My understanding is that it's not. Cheers

@Matt Cup

Maybe just my OCD talking but I would put the toolkit in first then then the Turini over the top of it so that the toolkit is under the wheel. Just in case the face of the Turini gets scratched up.

Cheers, I don’t know how that’d work as there would be no way of securing the wheel down that way would there?

Also It’s hard to see but I put a load of non slip rug stuff on the boot floor to prevent damage to the face of the wheel.

 

[Colin-S]

Ahh I didn't see the rugs there - nice! ahh you don't have the black locking top for the toolkit?

Hmmm, I may have but as I couldn’t figure out how that fit with the wheel in this position I may have binned it 🤐

Just in the event anyone searches etc - not an MOT fail. My mechanic is very strict but was confident this wouldn't be a fail.

I think it depends what the warning light is. If it's an abs fault, my understanding is that it's a safety issue and would be a fail.
I'm guessing it depends on the MOT tester, how well you know them 😉

This is interesting as I have the same issue. The toolkit fastener I have is a bit short. Where did you source the yellow piece? Look jus the job.

Also, agreed I don't think wheel face will work.

I just bought an entire toolkit off eBay from a breaker 👍

Pardon our interruption...

Nice given them a better clean too I see! Look great on the Silver Car!

Few jobs over the weekend; 4 new Magnetti injectors fitted & headlights restored/sanded. All pedal fronts removed after they had been badly glued on by one of the prior owners, sanded/rotary polished them and the pedals then metal araldite'd back on - looking mint.

Motor's just hit 130k and is going in for its MOT on Friday. All ready!

Thanks to @Matt Cup I sourced a yellow didgery to fit the spare turini in the Cup
