    2a radiator cap issues

    Hey guys. So iv got an odd one. Noticed the other day my temp got quite a bit high. Got home to notice steam coming out the front. There's me going oh fish sticks. I let it cool. Take the cap off and it needs topping up. So I thought maybe it just got a bit low as it does sometimes happen with...

    Leaky roof and brake warning light

    Sealed heavily all around the gutter. It can still drain. That last bit I haven't yet done no but I am starting to think condensation. But it's alot of water for that. I will seal up the last bit when it's dry but it isn't much and the seams are very flush

    Leaky roof and brake warning light

    Hey guys. Little update. Now whilst I haven't completely sealed those outer seams. Iv done about 90% of it and I'm still getting so much water collect on the ceiling. Could it be just general condensation? Part of me thinks it is because it doesn't get worse when I'm driving in the rain. Part of...

    Quick electrical diagnosis

    OK so after finishing work to find out that the heater plug button wasn't working either. I was forced to tinker in the rain. Turns out one of the connectors at the back of the ignition switch came loose.

    They've all gone at the same time. Makes me think it's a positive feed gone loose personally

    Quick electrical diagnosis

    Hey guys. Hoping you can help me out with some ideas whilst I'm in work and unable to tinker. My 2a had an issue today that I didn't notice till half way to work. All my electrics are working except for the horn and the lighting. I haven't got any blown fuses under the steering wheel and didn't...

    Leaky roof and brake warning light

    At this point iv not a clue. Don't even know if it's a gradual leak or something sudden (slap on the wrist for me) as I haven't checked the fluid for a couple of weeks

    Leaky roof and brake warning light

    No but I wish there was one. Lost my brakes on the way home from work. Thank god it was 1 am with no cars about. It seems my warning light has been wired directly to the brake lights

    She doesn't have a warning light for the handbrake and as a 1966 I dnt think she ever did?

    Leaky roof and brake warning light

    Just an update guys. I got the silicone sealant out. Did the entire length of guttering around the roof. And in liberal amounts to be sure! And I'm still leaking. Iv also since noticed it leaks in the same way all the way around the car......... I've ran out of ideas now and I'm a tad fed up of...

    Fortunately I have a week off from work with the intention of re-doing the wiring alarm and stereo. Still curious about that 4th pin.

    indicator flasher unit

    I already have a lil red light that flashes once with the indicator. Assuming that's my trailer warning light. I don't even know where that's wired in. Alot of the wiring behind the dash has been tampered with at some point

    indicator flasher unit

    Correct me of I'm wrong but don't the old flashers work on a bi-metallic strip? If so wouldn't using relays for the lights stop the flasher working properly?

    indicator flasher unit

    Hey guys. Dnt mean to hijack a thread. I have cylinder shaped flasher relay that looks identical to normal ones only mine has 4 pins? Only reason iv seen it was due to it starting to get very hot and burning. So I was curious as to what the spare 4th pin was? And also to query why (after the...
