You know Terry for a mere £12 you can buy an actual large chevron muff? Also there isn't a muff on/off time just put it on when it's cold....   I fit the muff on cold winter days ...... But,if I consider that its a "warm[ish]" winter day,then I remove it [which is why I dont just wrap a bit of tinfoil around my "large chevron" grill]. I've gotta admit though  .....that I oughta buy a "large chevron muff"  But the last thing on my mind is "2CV winter muffs" when I'm strolling around "registers day/international" trade stands in July/August .....winter always seems so far away then .......  best regards T.

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? I decided to build a new engine for mine.
And a man asked if he could take a photo of it when I stopped at the petrol station. Second time in a week that's happened. The last guy apparently used to do 2cv cross when it was in the UK, and promised to send me some photos. That hasn't happened but it was nice talking to him anyway.

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Wired in the 1-2 spark from Geo and took for drive. Now can rev all the way to 6500 rpm (when rev limiter cuts in) and pulls well now with full boost.
