As you might remember - I was following a P1 last week - at significant speed ! - & suddenly the P1 driver lost all power & had to pull up - unable to restart.
The worst was feared, but I popped in to see him last night & the news was good - apparantly an O ring on the crank shaft sensor had split - causing the engine to shut off all power. Very simple to fix & no major or lasting damage - everything now seems fine.
So no major engine failure on this one like a few others.

PS. P1 driver says he will register on here very soon.

Do you know other P1s that have knackered engines then?

 

Cheers Ro,

That means that there is one less P1 with a blown engine. I think the tally was 6 but now it's back to 5. Thanks for the info Ro and it's good to hear that it was just a minor problem.

First I`ve heard, any info. please ??


Cheers

 

I only know of 1 P1 that went pop.
Sold and repaired in Bristol. Went pop in France or Germany. No 3 bigend failure.
