So having a niggling prob with my offroad toy. She is an 87 classic 3.5 v8 Auto. I have fitted her with SU carbs which were stipped, cleaned and fitted with new floats and needles before being fitted. Fuelling is via a redtop facet with a fuel regulator up front. Starts fine with full choke so...

So finally got my truck running ok the other day, and drove it up the hill (first time on the road) to the village and back to sort out the pinking. Coming back down the hill, only doing about 50mph it did a mental speed wobble and frightened the begeezers out of me. So took a look...

Hi guys, took my bobtailed rangy out for a test drive today after getting it up and running. However there is clicky noise from up front. Its not there all the time, but if i kick down (auto) there is a clicking noise. It almost sounds like a knocking crank, but if I rev the engine in neutral...

So I fitted some su's (HIF's)on my 3.5 V8. They ran fine but where peeing fuel out the overflows at idle. Had them appart, checked floats for holes etc etc put back togeather, fitted a sytec fuel pressure reg and set to 2 psi, and replaced the needles but then it wouldnt start. Had them...

as title says, does anyone know where I can get just a starter solenoid rather than havin to buy the whole motor??? I traced a non starting fault to a loose bolt where all the wires connected to the solenoid. Some total muppet had used a steel nut with the wrong type of thread on the copper...

Hi guys, I'm changing my v8 bobtail back to carbs. Was efi but only part of the sysytem was there as I bought it as a project, so more economical & less hassle for me to change back to carbs. I like carbs and plus i just like mechanical systems. Anyway on the throttle linkage there's the...

Hi guys , just picked up my bobtail rangie pickup project yesterday. She's a 3.5 efi. Its bright blue and you cant miss it so if you where held up yesterday late afternoon by a very slow moving merc estate with this on the back in the bournemouth/salisbury/warminster area i appologise!lol...

Hi guys, basically borrowed the dizzy off my 3.9 classic for another project, put it on and the engine ran straight away. Then... went and put the dizzy back on my rangy and now it wont start. Just fires intermittently. I marked the body in relation to the engine but not the position of the...

Hi guys, need to replace the high pressure braided hose that goes from the abs pump to the accumulator on my 1990 3.9efi classic, as its leaking quite badly. The new one should be here tomorrow so is it: A) a simple case of unbolt the old and stick the new one on and the system will re...

Hi guys just got a 1990 G reg rangie classic 3.9 efi v8 with abs. When i get in the brake and abs warning lights are on, but they go out when driving. The abs pump makes an intermittent whirring noise(the sort you get with a bad electrical connection) for a min or so when you get in then does it...
