Dylans passed his MOT, and is now no longer SORN'd

Post by clartsonly »

I am well chuffed SORN'd on the 31 october, passed his MOT today, timing must be good as the HC reading was 25ppm, the max allowed is 1200ppm and the CO was 1.4% and max allowed is 3.5% so no unburnt fuel and whatever the other bit is.

1 heavy recommendation "almost a fail" ;) was that the handbrake was very poor the rear brakes on the pedal are excellent but the handbrake is hardly registering at all. I am sure I read somewhere on here that there was away of resetting the adjuster on the hub as I think the cable is simply pulling something already pointing in the direction of front of the camper? any Ideas on this easy fix rather than taking apart the shoes?

also this is a little more important on the way to the MOT I experience the clunk clunk clunk on a rear CV joint this has only ever happened for about 10 minutes a year or so ago, I want to repack the CV joints with grease but I can remember if there is a way of doing this without removing the drive shaft from the gearbox? any ideas on this too would be gratefully received.

I know I havn't been on here much since november but all I have done is started him up about 4 times in that period. looking forward to camping in a couple of weeks I think the children cant wait and my wife cant wait for me to take them away so she can relax once in a while again.
