Gearbox tested
Now I am grounded like us all, I am attending to several tidying up jobs on the Bristol as sick of gardening! I did take the 401 for a brief test drive before lock down with Castrol XXL 40 in the gearbox and overdrive and was very pleased that all the synchro worked and the gears shifted nicely. The change was a bit notchy so I have since slackened off the detent springs slightly but otherwise very pleased. The clutch is also now super smooth so clearly the minute skimming of the flywheel was just what was needed. Such a shame we are missing this weather but we fully support the stay home policy.
