Congratulations getting the Traction on the road. A few observations: The fuel gauge lies on my car as well. I follow the OSL282 method and note litres and miles driven. I followed the TOC lubrication guide for gear linkages etc and also drained, flushed and refilled gearbox with Redline MT90 (GL4 type oil which saves synchro apparently) I am sure there are other equally as good oils available. The whole gearbox experience was improved. The only other thing I changed was to fit a heavier gauge cable from battery -ve to ground. Went for a no 1 gauge which improved the crank rate of starter. I am about to start on modern cv drive shafts next week!
