Spent a substantial amount of time this morning doing a grease and oil change, oh and changing the tappet case cover gaskets. Took a lot longer that had imagined it would, though well worth doing and happy with most of the results. one of the tappet cover gaskets unfortunately decided that it wanted to not quite seal and is allowing oil past, so now needs to be replaced yet again. Would probably be an easier job if the manifold was removed, though I haven't done that and it is quite a bit more fiddly, oh well, try again.

I decided to go for a drive and see how it went, hoping the gasket would seal after all, it didn't. I had seen a picture taken by someone else in the small town of Dean, Victoria some years ago and so decided to go and see if I could get a pic of the car there as well. Took a circuit route and went to Dean, Daylesford, Maldon and Castlemaine and the back to Melbourne. 

And the pic...
