    Well I had a bad day today. Tried a cooler thermostat- no cigar. Decided to try electric fuel pump #2 (Carter). Spent a good part of the day installing it. Went for a test ride and broke either my transmission or transfer box- newly rebuilt with about 500 miles on it. Got to the main road, stopped, released the clutch and nothing happened. Thought I had somehow broken both rear half shafts. Popped it into 4wd and all I got was a whining sound from the front. This is the first rover I have paid someone to restore for me (my other ones were restored by me)- and it's like I'm restoring it myself in the long run anyway! Thanks for asking about the vapor lock issue- won't know the answer to that for a good while as I've now got bigger issues to deal with!
