New Valver in Portugal

Post by 2cvnick »

Dear Forum,
I am a new member here and wanted to show off my new purchase. A 95,000 km Portuguese minter BX 16 Soupapes with the token in car Nokia car phone and air conditioning! I have driven 7,000kms this year so far without a glitch but I have a couple of questions I need some help with. The hydraulic pump is very noisy (aerosol can with ball bearing inside noise) and I need a new hazard warning switch... can anyone help me? Regards, 2cvnick

Hello 2cvnick nice bx there, noisy hyd pump is not unusual but they can be rebuilt which quietenss them down a lot, maybe if its noisy its not running at full pressure either.
I have spare hazard light switches if you need one and can post to Portugal.

Thats great! How much do you want for the hazard switch? You can send it to my bro's address in London would be easier, he is visiting next week.
