I opted for AA to take me home, then carried on to work in the 180

Also just purchased the bolt and washer from Rimmer Brothers, and a short shift from Dark Ice... Contemplating the link upgrade, but think i will get under first and see if its needed

Got a shortshifter on mine now. It’s a good mod. Really reduced the throw.
I also did the joint replacement too along with the bushes. It’s like a different shift now. Much more positive.

Car is repaired and I can select gears again

However... I have a coolant leak

Its coming from whatever is under the alternator... water pump at a guess? Not looked to close as its pitch black and saw it by torchlight
