Well according to Tweety diesels are the future!! (now if we can just figure a way to get rid of the smell of chips )

Ouch! I guess that kicked off your education in autos! A pinched line is a good possibility- it went over pretty heavily from what i gather. He's cheched the shift linkage, that still goes thru full travel, didn't think of the kickdown but that's a cable on this box so unlikely... I expected it to b...

LATEST... The AA mechanic showed up, couldn't fix it an sent for a lowloader :shock: Unbelievable- if they were gonna send a mechanic anyway what did the weight matter? :evil: Methinks my early night aint gonna happen... Wise words Trev, unfortunately i use the truk a lot an short of gassin it, the ...

UPDATE- AA are on their way.
I dropped 'em a while ago for similar squirming tactics, you'd think they were an insurance company the way they try an wriggle out of it
I'm with Brittannia now- fastest recovery ive ever had an no messing!

I've foolishly loaned my precious D100 to a mate who promptly drove it into a ditch! In his efforts to get it out he's killed the trans somehow :x It's a Rover engine/box out of a P6 Circa 1978. It was professionally rebuilt 1 year/ 1000miles ago and has been faultless since and has been kept topped...

Good clear info Dave, ta very much
Same for the Carb setup post but it was a bit over my head- i'll have to read it few more times i think

Ow my brain hurts now! Dunno if i can give you enough info to help at this stage Dave but i've chickened out of the double pumper Pete had on the 360 and took the vac-sec carb he had on his Chally (still 750cfm) as i expect it'll perform well enough for street use and be less scary on fuel. Firstly,...

A lesson i learned: dont overtighten sump bolts!!!! This distorts the pan an it'll never seal again unless carefully hammered flat again :x If unused for a while the cork gasket will dry out an just stark leaking for no apparent reason, prompting the uninitiated to tweak the bolts a coupla turns. Th...

Surprisingly strong ain't they

Statin the obvious but make sure you get contact with metal not paint!! Also that the straps long enough and flexible enough to allow for engine movement ( many fine braids = good). Also remember to take it off before lifting motor out

I have the 3-leg version, used it a few years ago for a Chev BB. Id did kinda look strained but worked good. I got a plate made cos i didnt trust the slidey adaptor things- made a pattern in plywood to reach all bolt holes and you can put the tube wherevers best for C of G. Cost ?20 to have it cut o...

I'd have thought they would mesh pretty smoothly unless knackered and then as you say it'd show up as a bad wear pattern- in my experience a notchy feeling is more likely to be bearings. Might be dirt in the grease or flats worn into 'em....i'd pull the shafts again and turn the bearings by hand, yo...

2-strokes are much more fun- jus get the timing far enough out, get an unlucky backfire when ya kick it and yer off backwards!!!

I've had lots of powdercoating done over the years an i have nowt but praise for it. 1st thing i had done was a motorbike frame about 18 years ago- its done 25000m in all weathers since and still aint rusted anywhere ( even the front downtubes which get quite a battering!) Recently had a Lancia engi...

My understanding is pretty limited but i agree with Dave, a dud Reg can kill the alternator but not the other way round!
