Amrwr voorjaarsrit Bleiswijk

 


We had a beautiful day driving all the wat to Bleiswijk for the annual Amrwr spring run. This time we visited a magnificent Packard collection. 


There was only one little glitch when our battery died completely.  Luckily help form the ANWB arrived and the very capable patrolman installed a new battery. Lesson learnt: check your battery after the winter stop and keep a jumpstarter in the boot for long trips!

Wolseley 1500 Service, clutch slave and hose

The clutchpedal on the Wolseley 1500 did not feel very consistent. Inspecting the hose showed it to feel a little soft compared to other hoses. While under the car it was a good opportunity to change the oil, grease the suspension and check the brakes. 

To be able to fit a standard clutch hose I made up a new pipe with the correct connector to use with a clutch hose. 

With the slave cylinder off I decided to hone the bore and replace the seal and rubber. 

The hose itself is a Mini front brake hose I had available. 
New front tires too,  balanced and fitted
