Hi everyone, I am currently in the process of fixing the brakes on the series :/ I need two new brake pipes. I need the pipe that goes from the flexi to the top wheel cylinder and the pipe that goes from the top cylinder to the bottom cylinder. It is for the drivers side (RHD). The book says...

I can send you some photos of mine if you like?

If I was you I'd leave it as long as possible, the seal is probably ****ed. Is yours a 3 or 5 bearing? Sometimes you can get away with leaving it which is recommended. Replacing the seal is an expensive job and doesn't always even stop the leak lol. Also have you got the wading plug in? That...

Would the cable be top or bottom of Bell housing?

Update, still sparking. No cable seen on engine to chassis though shall put one in now

Thank you for the advice, I used the jump leads and tested the resistance over the ground connection (like 100 ohms!!), My positive cable is ok :). I am going to get new earth cables for both battery to chassis and chassis to starter. The battery to chassis connection is poor, it's on to the...

I'll give that a go and update you :) identifying the cables could be a pain :/
