Hello listers
I can now effectively join the "club", being the proud owner of
"Decibel", a 1979 FH Spit.
I think I am very lucky, because Decibel is very sound (no pun...).
First of all, I was told it/she had been converted to unleaded, but
no invoice to prove it. Is there a tell tale sign to verify (apart
from filling her up with unleaded until something eventually happens).
Second, the Rev counter isn't lit at night. Is that normal, or is
there a bulb I might want to look at.
Third, the reading light on the passenger's side doesn't work. The
bulb is good, and no fuse is AWOL... Any suggestions?
And finally (for now) the seat's upholstery is in a very sad state,
but the seats seem quite good. The trim is beige with houndstooth
cloth, and I am going to get a new one from Rimmer's. Any experience
with the fitting among you? And should I go for the cloth or settle
for the plain vinyl (leather is a little too dear...)?
Thanks in advance
Marc and Decibel
