First Trip For Service
Created on 2006-06-15 10:06:55
OK, so having purchased the car a week ago and driven it around a bunch, it was time to get it inspected. I brought it to Westwood Motors Inc. LTD in Northvale NJ. They work mainly on foreign cars- saw an Porcshe, Triumph, and MGA.
I was there primarily for a carb tuneup and NJ required inspection, but also had the valve cover gasket replaced to slow down one of the leaks.
Leaks I know about right now: timing change cover, rear axle case.
Other known issues: heater valve clogged, instrument lights have a dead short, bad rheostat, wiper fluid motor not working, water leaks.
Already done: popped door handle fixed, inside of doors hit with a rust converter, air intake grille drain tube cleared.
More as work prgresses.
