Rejoining - Sera Back On The Road!

December 8, 2003

I changed computers, and lost the shortcut here - seems my existence has vanished!

Anyway, anyone who remembers the ex Stuart Hamilton Sera...

In the end, the head gasket had gone, costing £800 to fix along with a decoke, timing belt etc. Fair enough.

Unfortunately, the head gasket went and encouraged some more problems to show up. The piston rings were worn, resulting in blowby when cold. Another £700 later, and the rings, shells, oil pump, strainer etc have all been replaced, plus another £274 for a new radiator.

Thanks to one of the Sera list, I should have a spare set of wheels, allowing me to work out what effect running on 16" wheels has on the handling.

Upgraded the Speakers in the back, too.
