Evil ,thanks mate....sill got your disco ES ? I wiped mine out last year....fourth one Ive rolled....so far......... Zen , thanks , Ive found that they run cool on the whole but agree that over 70 is needed to prevent emulsification in the oil filler cap that promotes head gasket panic syndrome

Sick of looking at dead links all over the web , need an ACTIVE rave download for my girlfriends 200 type D1 V8i......even LR resource dont do the early disco now . Since she is the independent type (ie, she puts up with me , drives a landy AND is an authority on series 1s....sigh , perfect) she...

Unable to access my machine with rave on , search failed.....so , anyone , I know the stat opens at 82deg but what is the proper running temp of a 3.5i ?

had back floor sponge up on girlfriends D1 200 type V8 and painted it with engine oil to scare the rust goblins away , attempted to fit a transit electric fan (failed,lack of space) , buggered around with wiring

Had a good scan of old posts . Some pikey sods syphoned my 86 RRC over the weekend and since then , refueled , it wont start . I have good spark . The fuel pump relay seems to contain no coil but some diodes and resistors I suppose because the pump comes on and off as needed . The adjacent...

any advance on this ? can you make a self cranking control by fitting croc clips to each end of a cable with a momentary push to make switch in the middle , linking the battery to the starter spade , thus being able to crank single handed ?

You wait until you have a total loss accident mate . My whole family have been with NFU for years but the way they have treated me recently , well we are taking ALL the work away from them .
