I can remember my aunt and rellies visiting from Australia in 1966. They had been to America before arriving here and had seen it before we had . It was the question at the time . Will they find her ?
I think after that saga came " The Fugitive !" A one armed bandit was seen leaving the scene of the crime ! "Will Dr Richard Kimble be able to clear his name ?"
Life was so exciting in those days !

I was at Leicester City night game when they announced over the tannoy that Richard Kimble was innocent.The one armed man had been caught

Seem to remember the bypass hose was at the back of the engine on the 998, having had to replace one in the dark on a hot engine one Sunday evening as I was on a course and had to drive back to Leafield from SE London. On the way down, I stopped because I could hear a hissing noise. Then I realised it was because the road was wet.

It was a long time ago so my memory may be faulty but I still think it was near the front. I had to change it on a garage forecourt in Aviemore in February as they were dealers and had spares. I damaged the first one due probably having frozen cold hands and so a bit clumsy but fortunately they were not expensive. After that I always carried one as spare and I also had a pretty full tool box anyway which served me well as it happened another couple of times during my ownership.
