Before starting the engine select each gear in turn, but kick the gear change pedal half a dozen times in each gear. This will automatically tighten the belts and give good transmission and gear changes. From one who used to drive and then command them.
Brilliant!, glad to meet up with you both at the Plough At Eaves, a cracking weekend with you both.
Wish we could have brought the Ferret instead of the Landy, but a bit too far for the old gal! Great weekend, though!
@CliffAndLouise hi Mr Cliff and lady Louise
Hi, sorry, only just seen this!

Good call, but I had done that before we started out that day so it didn't need it again.
Cause I need my Fffin glasses on ! I’m driving a fcking daimier tank. Lol.
It's not a tank, but she still calls it that... :)
If you ever drive down to Australia, could I please have a drive? I have subscribed.
If we ever get to Oz with our Ferret you'll be the first to drive it, mate!
Great fun :)
You probably should have explained how everything worked before getting her to drive it.
She did know what the controls were and what they did, but not necessarily where they were, and anyway, where's the fun in that?

@@Modernnannenginemarineengine Ditto 🤣👍
Louise you did well but don't think much of your instructor.
No, he's not that helpful, tried to get her to drive into a large pothole... got her home safely, though.
Flat out like a Race car
Flat out is 58MPH, but not for too long!
@@CliffAndLouise yes 58MPH at 3750 RPM my ferret in the army no limited rpm
