welldone mate....be good to see her again, get the two of them out together:thumb:

[Steve]

Nope, no advisories, they just said the brakes weren't that strong where it had been sitting a while.

[Nova_Tek]

nice ot hear it pased with no issues. Brakes are probably easily sorted.

[Ernie]

just make sure they work well mate as you wouldnt want to go into the back of something now would you lol.

[Nova_Tek]

Front or rears?

My Nova had a dodgey rear drum brake cylinder which didn't help it with braking that much and also kept the rear wheel binding. Check them out see if they are ok as they tend to go when sat for a very long time. They are quite cheap too. IIRC paid like £6 (for the part) about 5 years ago to have it replaced.

[Steve]

Yeah the rears are binding, when you come to a stop you can feel the right side squatting down lol wheel cylinders a likely cause then? I thought maybe just bad adjustment.

Or a tree lol lol

[Nova_Tek]

Yeah wheel cylinders were my problem an dthe guy said it is common when they sit for some time.

[Steve]

Cheers mate, i'll give that ago.
