All the rags around the shift can were to hold out the heat. Driving in 90 degree weather for over 8 hours gets the whole tunnel really HOT.. the shift stick was too hot to touch. Slim-jims provide fuel, ear-plugs help, but still leave your ears ringing for a couple of days....
Whew.. glad i did it, but never again!

I just found out why my knee kept cooking even after I disconnected the water hoses to the heater (which helped but didn't stop the heat). I found after I pulled out all of the carpeting to dry it that the rubber plug for filling the transmission was only partly plugged in! Once I fitted it properly the heat stopped! Only a week late.

OK, I know my car doesn't have a proper interior, but I can still say that I'd rather drive my '70 Midget 500 miles than the Bugeye 100 miles.

I think Barry did the same exact thing. He found a plug out that was heating up his cab.Billm said:
Hello:
I'm a new member (last few days). I have an English White BE.
sure looks like yours. I'm new to BE's and new to Forums, so I'm on a steep learning curve.
My BE runs well, looks good (not a show car, I drive her for the andrenalin.
Rear suspension is bad....feels like little red wagon going downhill way to fast and hitting cracks in the sidewalk.
