    Heater Matrix Removal RHD P38

    Hi Folks, yes, I've not put too much back together so I still have access to the jubilee clips.. for that very reason.. I'll run it for a few weeks yet so I can keep an eye on it.. Also yes dude, I ran new heater pipe through the firewall/bulkhead, removing the aluminium tubes altogether.. NOT...

    Thanks on that.. yes I had considered using a small M5 bolt.. but.. I went for the Nissen matrix in the end.. not having to worry about the bolt in the centre 'pulling' the aluminium bracket and the O rings to perform a seal.. I can't see it being that effective unless it was a larger bracket...

    I've decided to go to a coil spring conversion........ Sorry all.. I just don't want reoccuring issues with EAS.. A few years ago I had a P38 diesel with springs and that was fine for me, so we'll go for it.. I have another P38 with a conversion on with the electric plug in overide to stop my...

    Heater Matrix Removal RHD P38

    Hi Folks, where does the 'seal' go on this matrix? I cant see any evidence on the old one I took out?? Does it go on last before reassembly?? I can't get my 'Rave' working on the laptop yet so but hoping there would be a 'picture' on there that may help.. would anyone have access to this and...

    Heater Matrix Removal RHD P38

    That's fair comment yes.. my thoughts too, but I'm going to have to make some short pipes to fit over the aluminium ones, or just extend them through the bulkhead.. and I simply struggle with my back being under there.. so will be going with standard fit. I had contemplated it though yes thanks...

    No, it's time to ask my lad next time he's over... it's beyond me.. But drained the water all out last night, and flushed it too. It's an odd feeling having to buy antifreeze today for the refill! I will be refitting the heater matrix tonight time permitting. I now have another new matrix and...

    Ah Datatek, thanks.. Ironically I've had the disc for years.. when on my first P38.. and that was always looked at on Windows 98.. Still use that computer every day of the week plus two others in my business, it's 25 years + old!! However, I think the Laptop is on XP Professional... do I have to...

    Thanks Flossie! I do have Rave, but can't seem to get it to work on my laptop??? But your suggestion is making me trying to work it out... I have it on a CD too, but we're bordering into Rocket Science.... I need my lad to come over... Thanks, Titch

    Heater Matrix Removal RHD P38

    Thanks on that yes.. I had worried about bleeding the air.. so, I've bought a new replacement matrix to use with the O rings this time.. so the Nissen one is now 'surplus to requirements'. If using the Nissen one, with the directional arrow on one of the 'pipes', it did concern me which...

    Heater Matrix Removal RHD P38

    Indeed yes, but I don't know the history of the matrix...so whilst I was under there and by BeCM is away and winter is approaching...thought I'd do a full job. What a nightmare too, but, old matrix out & new Nissen one available, all should be good for a decent amount of time... Incidentally...

    Can anyone be kind enough to advise if there's any decent video clips or whatever, on removing and changing the heater matrix on Right Hand Drive P38 please?? I've searched & searched, You Tube etc etc but can't seem to find anything relevant to RHD.. Write ups yes, but is there any video/film...

    Fair comment yes, I had thought that.... So far I seem to have virtually dried all out, but got a decent sized building so the RR can stay under cover with doors open etc to continue drying for a few days still... Checked & cleared sunroof drains etc I'm still yet to discover exactly where the...

    Hi Folks, I'm going to speak to Les at Classic Rides next week.. I feel that if I can get the beCM overidden and delete the immobiliser & alarm and EKA code.. we should be getting closer.. I have found water on the drivers side cill where the large amount of wiring is.. this is being attended to...

    Thanks so far folks..I am changing the microswitch/door lock this morning, when it stops raining...I do suspect this is an issue... Then we are looking at the immobilizer I think.... Titch
