I have a 12 way split load box fitted from car builder solutions. I separated out all the wiring from the terminals on the original fuse box. I like you have electric fan and have the lighting all relayed up separately, and electronic ignition. Works fantastic never had an issue but I did fit a new ...

Frost restoration do a kit specifically to clean, protect and coat the inside of the fuel tank.
I have used this successfully in my own car doing this over 20 years ago

Quite possibly but looking at the map.
There is a north west meet at Daresbury Warrington this is closer I would think in the Dolly mixture there is the list of contacts for your nearest area.

I put my relays behind the dash and split into the loom at the steering column plugs. I didn’t want my inner wings to be cluttered with the upgrade but it is your car so you can chose.

If it’s not been on a car there was a batch produced without the hole, I know one of mine didn’t and had to be drilled out. If you think of the early Toledos they had to be short bumpers and as such they wouldn’t need to have the hole in.

Indeed, after initially saying we would attend looking at the forecast of a yellow warning for thunder and lightning in place, a doubt was cast. Nevertheless Barbara packed a variety of clothing for the eventualities. We arrived in a bit of a drizzle that was gone in an hour or so after a hearty ...

I got mine fully fitted then just felt for the holes and used a fine screwdriver to puncture it.
It’s pretty logical once you find the first one

Thanks Martin.

Can someone tell me if the O ring seals are available from the club or the sizes so I can buy some.
I’ve had the cam cover off more times than I can remember and have a small pool of oil in one of the tubes now. Without wanting to create more trouble taking it all apart again.

I added the wiring diagram to the manual as my car was optionally fitted with overdrive.
Saved me a whole load of faf when refitting it all back in.

Great to meet up with you today Ralph at crow nest.
As we discussed this is something definitely on my to do list and this serves well to support the activity.
Well done

I tried doing that yesterday but couldn't get the solder to take


Just ...

I have this on my cupboard door they never did it as an internal sticker so it could go inside on the glass

Yes you can remove it and I’d recommend doing so.
Due to the nature of what it does it can get stuck/ damaged over time.
A lot of care and delicate movement can work it free.
Copious amounts of a freeing agent think I did use wd40 but knowing that it’s not good for long term lubrication of locks ...

I bought the pad available from Aldridge’s.
Before fitting it l marked out where the drain points are and don’t forget the inner wing points above the subframe bolts.
Then I removed the rear sponge in channels, as although it’s supposed to be closed cell found it held water, to have a clear outlet ...
