MX5 turbo on the road again.......

[Fozzy]

Well last night i set my alarm for 5am as car still had plenty to put together and i had booked an MOT for 10am. needless to say i didnt finish putting it back together.

Things i didn't get to sort:

Loose battery,
Ive also lost my numberplate bracket.
The washer bottle hasn't got a home yet as its right behind the turbo and i don't have a heat shield.

Short vid that i was messing about with on the phone:



Anyway at around 9.55 i drove to the Garage, that was a fun drive turns out the windscreen wipers didnt want to work in the rain, but other than that its drove no problem (i didn't push it).

I turn up and the mechanics took one look and told me it wont fit on the pit as the front too low, so i drove back home removed the splitter and then it cleared it easily, all is well. I leave the garage head home to get warm after being drenched removing the splitter in the rain.

about 50mins later i get a call ' your car just threw oil down the pit' oooops. 'don't worry just bring some oil back with you and you can limp it home'

Well long story short, oil feed pipe is leaking majorly. And the car failed but not badly which im really happy about.

And the fail sheet:





At the moment the car is outside draining the last of its oil on the drive ...........
