Hello everyone, I've not heard anything locally about the meet in Stowe I've seen mentioned recently - can someone send me details? Also, being new to Series rovers, and being close to RN, if people are comming up this way for a few days for work, I'd be more then happy to meet and chat with other LR owners. If at all possible, I'll try to get our new/old Series III over to Stowe for the meet. Thanks everyone - everyday I learn more.

What is the >cost of the headrest in the US? My 1994 price list says $180 for leather, $120 for cloth (set of 2). They are comfortable, but the price is a ripoff.

From: rover@pinn.net (Alexander P. Grice)
Subject: Work Weedend
I tried posting this last night from Mike's farm, but it got lost in the
ether somewhere....
Spent Saturday cutting two new additions to the trials course trail for the
upcoming Mid-Atlantic Rover Rally. (For those who came in late, it's
September 30 - October 1 in Buckingham County, VA) One of the trails was
immediately dubbed "sphincter hill" as you sure tighten up when you descend
it. It ain't roll-over angle, but is *damned close*. Make a mistake here
and you will do a half gainer and turn turtle in the gultch.
The mud bog is holding water just fine, thank you. Last year, we had three
months of dry weather leading up to the event, but there has been plenty of
rain this year. In fact there was so much, the dam was breached allowing
some to drain out. We have a few surprises in store, to boot.
The weather was amazingly cool and clear for August. For those of you who
wimped out (Diesel Bob), you missed a fine BBQ and a great meteor shower.
Penlan Farm has "awesome dark"...though it's on a hill, only one other light
is visible. Cheers

]From: RICKCRIDER@aol.com Date: Mon, 21 Aug 1995 01:45:19 -0400 Subject: Series III Troubles....... OK all you Series gurus........ My beloved 73 Series III 88" stranded me 9 times in 30+/- miles on the way home from my parents today. Was low on gas......not out of gas. Kept sucking up all the crud from the bottom of the tank and clogging the fuel filter. Thank goodness for the removable (and cleanable) glass bowl type filter. Would stop and clean it, prime the pump with the lever, drive about 3 miles and repeat the proceedure.......was purely miserable by the time I ..-finally-.. got home. During one of my stops I removed the passenger seat, the cover panel, and withdrew the feed tube from the tank. Isn't there supposed to be a wire or fiber mesh type 'sock' over the end of the feed tube? Well, if so, it's not there. Anyone know the name and or part number of this 'sock' if its necessary? In peering in the tank with my ever dimming flashlight I noticed that there was not as much gas in the tank as my gauge would lead me to believe, though there were at least a couple of gallons which would have been more than enough to get me home. I would like to bend the float arm so that the guage would tell me its closer to empty than it actually is. As it is now, it tricks me into thinking that I have more gas than I actually do. Should I bend the float arm up or down to accomplish this? And, yes, it goes without saying that the tank needs to come out for a thorough cleaning which will happen before I travel more than a mile or so from home again. Thanks folks.......
