As some have said there are some folk who help out & save a fortune with repairs & parts from broken vehicles. A certain ex member still helps me keep my MV6 in tip toppies.
    If you like the car SHOUT for some help. I know a few on here will travel to help out & bring/scource parts for a reasonable fee & a huge feed!!! :y

Yep, you're right. Without getting sentimental (god forbid) there is a real spirit of helpfulness on this forum and It's something we can all feel proud of (wipes eyes).

Long may it continue.

:-[ after all these years of tinkering with cars (about 40) I still amaze myself how wrong I can be sometimes. After describing the symptoms  over the phone to 2 seperate auto specialists they (and I ) were convinced I had a cracked driveplate. Thanks to Henry's help I managed to source a used replacement. Anyway, I decided to take the car to one of the specialists to make sure before I spent money on having the job done. He confirmed that it WASN'T the driveplate but a rattle from the pump and said to ignore it as it would probably run for years like that. I feel a little silly but am over the moon that I wont have to spend ££££s getting it sorted. I guess I'll be keeping the mig for a while yet. Again, thanks to all for their interest in this.  :y

Good result, with no wallet trauma. :y :y
