Took the TR3 out this afternoon for her first "shakedown" and sorting out" run
in three years, and happy to report that all went very well with no surprises
what so ever.
Spent about 45 minutes on some nice roads and just a few on the highway,
registered a strong 70lbs oil pressure and ran at 180 degrees the entire time.
After a complete rebuild all around, my only hiccup at this point, and I can't
quite figure this one, is that my front blinkers don't blink when my
headlights are, although the rears do. And yet they work fine when the lights
are off, I'll figure that one out not a biggie...
Anyway, I'm excited to be in a car again I can drive like the 4th of July this
4th. She's no longer Apple Green, but a very dark BRG from a Jaguar code, with
a nice new light stone interior. I do want to thank everyone for all the
timely and excellent help, I really appreciate it, sure I'll have more
questions soon. And as of today I'm officially done driving my wife's MG, its
nice, but not me...
