I have several headlamp stalk switches if you need one all good and fully working. £15 posted. I also have heater several heater control panels.

Cheers Matt. I've always had mixed fortunes with those fixings, even when it's warm! I think age plays as big a part in making them brittle and by...

Yes that's what I thought, mine is obviously stuck open all the time.

You might want to check out the seal on the fuel level sender unit. This is accessible under the rear seat. I've had problems with my series 2 giving...

Chevronics had one. Not a bad price for one. Going to make life a lot easier!!

I've just fitted a set of 4 Michelin energy to the GT, got them for £50 a pop fitted

You may find your solution here:

Dave!

Long time no speak buddy, glad you've still got Monica!

They list a K&N panel style for it (same as early Diesel) which fits inside the existing round holder, so may get one of those as its only £35

And...

This is a 1.6 16v Hdi

Not if it's an 02 it's not.

Just get some new tyres to fit the rims,

I ordered 4 new Michelins for my GT today, 175/65 R 14 and paid £50 a corner for them

Hi Phil,
From what I was looking at, it's section 13.54, Diagram 6 - all models from 1987 - circuit IX. Unit 92, Interior Light Timer. Between lines...

Strangely enough it has mended itself

The 1.6i was the only UK 1.6 petrol version of the injection model AFAIK and started in either very, very late 91 or early 92. There is at least one...

I use silicone, the high temperature variety, for either gaskets or flues.

After I read this I remembered there was a tube of instant gasket laying...

From memory (I did a batch of them a while back) it's actually easier to do them with a big vice - I've got a press and it's hard to get it all lined...

Wouldn't it be simpler if you want to do this to use the heater that Ford use on diesel that heat by glowplugs?

I think the heater he is referring...

Blimey - that's good!

Hi,

I used a set from a motor factors came in about £8 and came with a cone to go over the ball joint, only done the drivers side so far as the n/s...

Thanks very much.

I think the issues with the fit on RHD cars was the exhaust manifold fouling the steering rack etc, from my research the carbs should just bolt on -...

Thank you both for the advice. I may take you up on your offer Jaba re the plipper etc and see if I can get it working. In the meantime I'll have a...

Thanks re spec of car, so what does an Athena have or have not, where does it fit in, looks quite sporty with spoiler and seats are quite smart too.

Won't make much difference. It's just a little silencer, and plenty of 1.9 cars came without them. The exhaust may be very slightly fruitier without...

You could calculate the approximate max load by comparing the distance between high and low position of the suspension to the travelling distance of...

Nuff said Kitch.

Following this with interest! As that troublesome BX Estate I have got has now decided to drop at the rear quite quickly when parked. So much so it...

Hello, I did hear that for every gallon of petrol burnt that a gallon of water was produced???? Go figure!

The “BX Project” has been mentioned as a resource. What is the URL?

Thanks, y’all.

Thanks for all the information guys, definitely something to look into. I'll check my pivot arm tomorrow.

They may be different on my late TD (with the fuel filter on top of the thermostat housing), but it's more likely just my memory failing me!...

For time being i have left it with just one fan working on the rad switch and fitted a manual override on the second, sat in traffic last week for a...

Thanks for confirming. Just need to get steering alignment sorted
