No apology for using this thread as a journal of my ownership of Aunt Maud. There are two items that the PO told me of that need sorting in the fullness of time.

1. The speedometer reads a bit slow because it has the wrong gearing from the OD unit. This needs changing one day.

2. The Type D OD works on all the gears at the moment (rather than just top as it should). This is because the inhibitor switch isn't fitted - the switch is in the spares box but the hole it goes into needs tapping with the correct thread (M16x1.5).

These are both jobs that need doing one day when I take the gearbox out.

I'll use this thread to catalogue my inventory of spares, survey known issues and start recording fixes from later on today. Any comments on posts with advice (particularly telling me I've got something wrong!) would be much appreciated.

You might have polished up the chrome before putting it on. Not OCD.
