Drove to Kempsford yesterday to see some family friends - had a reasonable trip, but halfway there the rev counter decided to stop working, and then she wouldn't idle - fine once running, but at every traffic light, junction or roundabout she would stall. Restarted OK every time, but VERY frustrating.

This morning, she started fine, but was still cutting out. Took a spin up to Worcester and she miraculously cured herself! I reckon she thought she should behave herself when she got closer to Malvern. In real terms possibly a blocked idle jet that cleared itself?

Run back home was OK, apart from a wiper deciding to part company with the spindle! Caught it quick so no great issues!

She's going back to Allon White on Thursday to have the speedo cable fitted, and I'll get them to look at the Rev Counter, and check out a slight oil drip she's developed while they're there. Considering I've done more mileage in the last 7 days, the she'd done in the previous 5 years, it's not surprising a few things are going adrift....
