Horror Stories IV |
A temporary repair to an injected fuel return pipe from a previous owner, totally unaware by the present owner, but a serious potential fire hazard. |
On a visit to our workshop it was discovered that the customer’s fuel tank, (pictured below) had moved out of position and the De-Dion tube was rubbing against it, also damaging the wiring, (picture on right). |
A customer’s recently purchased second-hand R500, that features in the ‘Cambelt Special Horror Stories’, also makes an appearance here with its air filter, (pictured right). The car was supposedly well maintained by a reputable company, yet the air filter and cambelt had clearly been overlooked. |
