Nice to see you back in action. As ever, the simplest of jobs escalates and becomes another thing to focus on. Now you have a talking point the next time you bump into a P4 owner, knowing full well he will probably worry and not sleep at night until he checks his own.
I remembered something from the long distant past When you lifted at heater box out, there was some white self adhesive foam laid around the flat panel Thats also part of the bodgery When i worked with my mate an old school motor engineer on his bosses rover 110 There was a gasket made of that hessian type stuff used for sound proofing laid their It was quite thick so would have stopped vibration as well, it was a very low mileage car then back in the mid 70s You can but that stuff for soundproofing, i have some fitted to the morris oxide You would need to make a template and perhaps glue two layers together I noticed some of the fibres sticking through the bolt holes
Straight forward really and should only take 15mins or so. Releasing the nut from the control rod is the most awkward part, getting into a comfortable position to undo the nut..
Allways enjoy stuff on the rover 👍
Thanks..

Many thanks.....I don't think it'll be the last surprise waiting for me...
This will be a credit to you once done keep up the good work
Many thanks, how things take off from a relatively simple repair...
Hi David enjoyed the video, keep up the good work, I'm about to restart work on mine next week.
Many thanks. Taken a few days off, however hope to get stuck in again over the next few days.
Hope yours isn't to bad, what model do you have.
@@davidbaugh mine is a 100, do you remember the link I sent you, leading to a boat load of pics.
Aaahhhh yes I do, in fact I have a link to the images permanently on my computer for reference as and when I need it. very helpful.

Thanks. The fibres are from some matting stuck on from under the carpets.
Pleased to see how the whole vent mechanism comes apart as i need to do this on my 1958 90.

I'm sure the word ,"bodgery"is in all rover maintenance handbooks 😂
