Posting for future reference in case ever needed! Finally found the correct grub screw size: 10/32 x 1/4

I had this exact problem a few months back. Basically the copper connectors in the stalk were loose (probably too much headlight full beam and dipping when flashing other landys 🤣). Needs a clean up with contact cleaner and some wet n dry 1200 grits and a slight adjustment with needle nose...

Hi all Does anyone happen to know the grub screw size which holds the fan on the smiths motor spindle on a Series 3 blower please? I’ve tried metric replacements but to no avail. Assume some form of imperial size. Despite putting the grub screw in a very safe place and reminding myself...

Enjoyable video. You’ve a lovely looking Series 3. Did like his comment that it’s basically a cross between a tractor and a car 😂. That’s why we love ‘em 😎

Hi all Just posting this for future reference more than anything so it can be searched for if needed. I’m in the process of rebuilding a zenith carb and noticed that the top cover/choke section was missing the ventilation screw/jet which forms part of the economy device. Apparently this is...

To be fair my series 3 will get to 65 ish albeit on the loud side by that point 😂. It’s more trying to combat the backwards feeling on some hills and also the cold starting issues. Might not be any better but the weight of opinion seems to be that a well tuned zenith is the better carb? I’m not...

Hi all Currently have a Weber fitted to my 2.25 petrol S3. Happy enough with it but could do with a little more oompf between 40-50mph and not the best at a cold start. Having read up on the differences between a Weber and a Zenith, I’m currently in the process of attempting my first rebuild of...

They’ve a very sleek Instagram and website showing some impressive restorations. Unfortunately not being in the market for their restorations the nearest I’ve been to them is having a Marshall Bluetooth speaker mount for my Series 3. Was a Christmas present- very well made from my POV, if not on...

Don’t think so. Any new ideas if it did?

lol thanks everyone for your input. I agree that usually I cannot hear a thing in my series 3 but was only going about 10 miles an hour so definitely heard something clatter. I also found part of a broken u-bolt but checked all my axles and they’ve got 4 on each. Very strange. Hoping that...

Hmmmm given no one has instantly recognised the offending object I’ll have to go back to have another look to see if anything else roadside looks like it has come off the landy 😂. Definitely made a clatter as it fell off whatever it was 😁 Appreciate all your help as always

Evening all Had a lovely day yesterday collecting our Christmas tree in my series 3 until I heard a clattering noise and something definitely falling off the vehicle 😱. Have been back to the road this evening and the only debris that looks like it could have come from Solihull’s finest is a...

Wow great result. Some amazing people in this forum all willing to go above and beyond to help other landy owners out. Great work Hicap!

Hi Sprie. Funnily enough I’ve just been sorting out my wipers this weekend. After changing the motor the washer kept sticking on so have just taken out the switch and cleaned it all out including the micro switch which is pushed by the plunger for washer function. I’m now back to full working...

Yes definitely don’t give up. Half the fun 😬 is chasing down the various gremlins that pop up every now and again. I have found this forum very friendly and invaluable for help since buying my S3 in the spring this year. It’ll be like triggers broom when it’s finished but doesnt half put a smile...
