Marvin is alive (for the 99th time and then again not)

Well crossed fingers Marvin is fixed, well the fuel system anyways. I eneded up replacing all the metal fuel lines from front to back, and then tried to start and drive the car once more. Over the last few months its been 300 yards or a mile then the car dies. Today I drove twice around block flat out in second gear and it didnt miss a beat. Tomorrow I need to shift the van for the house walls to be painted, once thats done I will take Marvin for a longer drive..

In other news I went over to my friends Paul and fixed (well attempted to fix) his lack of handbrake and to try and sort out his grabbing brakes on ANN904B. I half sorted the grabbing brakes, but cured the handbrake. Another week passes and the cars start to move forward at last.
