When out with James Rumsey owner of Jr motor sport & my car went BANG!
After looking straight down at my oil pressure gauge that was reading fine dumping the clutch {all done in a millisecond} We popped the bonnet took a quick look. Nothing to see so set of back to the garage with a very loud metalic noise going on Once covers were off we could see the clutch & housing on the air con pump were adrift. Further inspection showed moulting metal & filings in & around the pump area. The whole lot pipework pump bottle rad is contaminated with metal filings. To replace with new would be over 2k so for now i will remove it. The belt will be replaced with an Rs belt so can be put back on the road cheep. I hope this is the last bad thing now as Germany isn't to far off. I also hope it wont be as hot as last year
