Note from Phil O.

Hi Dave:
Has anyone reported taking any road trips recently?  We spent the holiday weekend in St. Andrews, taking in some of the events, including the parade and fireworks on July 1st.  Had a great time with one exception.  We were driving down the main street (Water Street) Monday afternoon when the B abruptly stopped as if I’d turned off the key.  Pam was not impressed, having to help push us off the street while folks watched….no help from the sidewalks!  After some head scratching, I found that the inside of the distributor cap was covered in carbon dust.  The business end of the rotor has been touching a couple of the distributor cap electrodes, leaving the fine dust.  A thorough wipe with a rag fixed the problem.  Otherwise, it was an enjoyable weekend.

Couple of photos attached.  Note the fine looking blue MGB roadster, parked behind the “other British car” checking into the Algonquin.  One photo of the fireworks included too.

Regards
Phil
