    How daft do I feel.......

    While at the Ardigley show last year my GT14 died on the way into the parade ring & I had to get towed round the ring then back to the exhibit area. Thinking it was something serious ,I didn't want to delve into the tractor until I got her home. At the end of a gloriously hot weekend & a great show she was pushed back onto the trailer & headed back to Somerset. After being unloaded at home I didn't have the heart to see what the problem was as I feared it was going to heartbreaking news . She has sat quietly ow for nearly ten months waiting for me to build up the courage to see what the problem was., I pushed her out onto the lawn & charged the battery for an hour then armed with spinners I decided to go for it. Right, I will just start by trying to turn her over to get any idea of what might be the issue. Turned key, vroooooooom , she stated first time ,,,that's odd... I started to look her over then looked down by the fuel tank & noticed that the fuel tap had wound himself shut by vibration. As you can imagine I was delighted that it was nothing serious , so instead of spending hours trying to sort out a problem I spent the time getting reacquainted an gave her some TLC. So now I know to get into the habit of turning fuel tap on & off after each use. Here a a few pics after the TLC
