Almost done with “the Distraction “ …. Lotus work will resume tomorrow 8)

The struggle resumes … unfortunately I do mean struggle :-\
The Europa specific radiator hoses I bought didn’t work, the bottom one needed cut and spun because the bend orientation to each other was wrong and the bend was larger so I had to trim some fiberglass to get it on the coolant tube. The upper one needed cut and spun to reorient the bends and shortened almost 2 inches :(. Adding two pieces of aluminum tubing and 4 more hoses clamps is not “simplify”. The clutch cable abutment bracket holes did not line up with the original hole spacing and were closer together so I made a threaded plate to spread the load….why does everything have to be a challenge :confused:

Turbo, I feel your pain, :I-agree:
I made a bracket for the clutch cable also. my hoses weren't perfect either off Ebay ,but I'm sure you'll work it out. Sometimes it feels like I'm going in circles so then I start another task that will also give me a problem. Makes sense doesn't it? :headbanger:
so just keep moving forward.
