No, this is not the sound the valves make. Its the serpentine belt or the v-belt, which is slipping. Its wet outside and therefore is slipping ...
Changing my 2003 Honda civic alternator
COLE FIRED UP!..
Fresh from their success on the Manx Telecom Rally, Damian Cole and Craig Drew have taken their second maximum points score in the Richard Egger Insurance MSA Asphalt Rally Championship in a month by winning the third round, the Jim Clark National Rally, outright. Their Ford Focus WRC suffered from gear selection problems virtually from the off – the car stuck in 6th gear on the opening stage! - but survived to give them one of the best results of their careers to-date.
However, Cole/Drew did not have it all their own way and, whilst not detracting from their achievement, the final top three could so easily have had a different look to it. Previous Jim Clark National Rally winners Andy Fenwick/Lee Tindall set the fastest time through the opening stage in the Scottish Borders town of Duns to put their Subaru Impreza WRC into a lead it maintained for 11 of the 14 special stages. Just when the pair thought they were home and dry, brake problems intervened forcing them out of the event.
Simon Mauger, partnered on this occasion by Ashley Trimble, was putting in one of the ‘giant-killing’ performances for which he has become renowned in his 2.5 litre Ford Escort MkII. He finished 3rd here last year and, following Fenwick’s retirement, moved into the lead. However, his tenure at the top of the timesheets was short-lived as the promised rain began to fall and Cole was able to make the most of his four-wheel drive technology to overhaul the Escort.
Championship leaders John Stone/Lee Carter rounded off the Top Three with another calculated drive in their Skoda Fabia WRC. After a slow start on the Friday evening, the pair settled into the task in hand and, by the end of the rally, were setting fastest stage times. Â
Michael Glendinning and Andrew Roughead’s first Championship outing in a Subaru Impreza netted 5th and, but for a problem on the eleventh stage which cost 14 minutes to the leaders, David Hardie/John McCulloch’s similar car would have also taken a Top 10 finish. They had already suffered the ignominy of a blown turbo at the end of the first leg with the resultant smoke billowing out of the back of the car obliterating the headlights of following cars!
