Cubster

The tongue on the chute got bent and no longer fitted onto the deck.
Took the opportunity to clear all around the hydro box which was pretty choked
Oil in box 45mm down vent pipe
drive belt work on inside edges.
65:56/181.1 rear back plate has also got quite badly bent and the bin was falling off. Better now, but not right.

4/6/20 replaced steering ball joint front right. Wasn't too bad.
27/8/20 took put the petrol tank to fix the hand brake which no longer locked. Turned out that the screw holds the handle on was almost lost. It has been getting worse and worse. The design isn't fantastic and the metal pull rod for the mechanism has made an oval hole in the handle. I've tyraped it up, so the tyrap should wear out first.
I also tied all the cabling out the way as this was rubbing on various parts like the steering column.
The throttle, which has always been a bit odd, and didn't like to stay at full revs was broken. The bowden cable had come out of the crimp, so that was crimped, oiled and replaced.
