labman Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 There should be a picture, if I've done it right?

danuleson Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 Really very sorry I didn't make it guys! Left the house at 16:15 to meet you guys at Brampton, but when I was half way to Cambridge I had a problem with the car Not sure what the problem is yet but managed to get back home. Hope you guys have a good night!

labman Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 Sorry you couldn't make it, we waited till about 6pm then assumed you couldn't make it. Hope your car probs not serious and you can get it fixed quick, and cheap. Meet was good, only 5 of us in the end but enjoyed it all the same. Talk of doing a Bedford one in Bedford next month. See if we can attract a few more from Cambs. Hopefully see you next time.

Cheers guys! Glad you had a good evening, the weather was superb too. Gutted I wasn't there! Felt bad knowing you were waiting for me at Brampton too, sorry guys . I was on the road to Cambridge and the car just started mis-firing and hesitating badly, then I heard a loud ticking sound. I thought it was my worst fear, and that the big ends had gone Pulled the car over and shut down straight away. Called a mate and he came and picked me up with a trailer. Had a look at the car this morning and after 2 hours of searching I found the problem. I'd just had the car serviced and it had new NGK plugs fitted. When I pulled the lead off number 3 I noticed some white ceramic coating inside the lead, then I took the plug out and it was damaged to the point that the ceramic coating was just crumbling apart! Popped down the local Halfords with the missus and picked up a new plug, and hey presto problem solved Checked all the other plugs and there was no problem. I just put it down to either manufacturing fault or the mechanic being a little to heavy handed Car is running fine now, although my MOT is this week Will wrap it up in cotton wool now until the next meet, then I will DEFINATELY be there Laters all.

No worries mate, these things happen. Thanks heavens it was a simple fix, when our type R did something similar to that it ended up costing us...................................................well just think of a number and double it! We'll see you next time, I'll post details in here as soon as a date is confirmed
