What have you done today with your Austin Seven
First trip in the Pearl this year and went to Mersea Island beer festival - only had a half but have some takeaways for home consumption. Started Pearl up on Good Friday after checking points, plugs and jets but low on fuel. Got some fuel for Pearl while in modern.Went to start this morning - no go - blocked jets,cleaned them. Did four mile trip round the "block" and set off for Mersea Island 10 miles away,going lovely and the suddenly stopped after six miles up a hill and on a bend. Helpful motorists helped me push her a safe place. Immediately thought fuel and blocked jets,all clear,removed a spark plug - no spark. Lifted other side of bonnet and distributor cap was resting on the oil filler tube.Replaced and on our way,no other incidents getting home before the Strood was covered at very high tide. Note to self- make sure the distributor clips are secure.
