An Open Door Policy

Joe is back and today's mission was to open the LHR door...

Easy!

The latch return spring was stuck, so a quick spray of WD40 did the trick.


Next, boot latch adjustment. One of the bolts was stripped so time to find a replacement...

The result? A much better boot fit...

Last task for the day, start hunting down the source of the exhaust leak (leaks?). Off  came the exhaust manifold to exhaust pipe connection and out came the heat riser valve...

Time to source a heat riser gasket and a couple of exhaust flange donuts.

The list is getting shorter!
