Ongoing maintenance

Felt a bit "iffy" after Brooklands, just a bit more juddery, slightly poor tickover and could detect faint whistle was back. Before panicking, did some cursory checks. plugs, compression, water.. All looking reasonably OK. Considering the whistle aspect I took a spanner to the manifold bolts and sure enough, needed a bit of tightening!! Don't know why I should be surprised. Bottom line, "iffyness" gone again, whistle gone again. (And the exhaust manifold repair holding up fine)

Cleaned out carb bowl and fuel pump whilst at it, not much residue, so not too worried about the fact I haven't re-fitted the fuel filter yet .

In this weather she is my daily driver :-) over 600 miles since last CH gasket... Won't let that go until probably another 600 miles done..!
