Hey there

I think that's how TVR did most of their electrical engineering. Just bodge some wires in, stand back, close one eye, turn around, say three hail mary's and hope it works!

Red to red, black to black, switch it on and stand well back!!!!!

Just a quick update, firstly to say thanks for the warm welcome to the forum (and a brief insight into the 'joys' of TVR ownership)

 

And secondly the good news is that my head gasket is (hopefully) fine. The garage reckon I had a blockage in the cooling system / radiator which has been flushed.

 

The oil leak was from the sump and has also been fixed.

 

I'm a little sceptical as the coolant level is still very up and down when driving but we will see, I asked for a compression test but it wasn't deemed necessary so wasn't done.

 

That just leaves the really rough idle, a noisy exhaust, dodgy fuel gauge and sound system upgrade before he is perfect again.

 

Still it could have been worse...
