Ta for the replies!

My wiper motor expired on Friday just as I was taking the car for MOT. When I stripped it down to replace the motor and mechanism I noticed the foam that covers the air inlets was perforated and probably a contributing factor to the motors demise. So, where do you get replacement foam from?

Typical, it's pouring down today. Turned on the wipers, they make a funny noise and return to park and that's it. Joy.

fingers crossed, it goes for it's MOT tomorrow...

Clarkson gave one a hard time for 6 months and only the steering column adjustment broke! Not too bad a test?

Nice looking install. Filled up with gas at my local LPG fitter and got him to give it the once over. He suspects that lack of gas and poor connection on the leads was enough to cause the back fire. After checking everything, he said it's a good as a single point will be! He also had a...

I used to have a 100L stako tank which took up most of the boot when I first got the car. I had a 80L doughnut fitted instead and I'm sure the chap who fitted it mentioned it had to change the valve for some reason. I also lost the fuel level indicator as the electrics weren't the same, again...

Waited for it to go dark then fired her up again to check for arc-ing, could hear a clicking then bingo...saw sparks on the left hand side of the engine (looking from the front) towards the expansion tank. It's a right pain to get at the lead but managed to pull it out and discovered: Damaged...

Right chaps, had a poke around this morning and found a lead was loose were it sits on the coil pack at the back of the engine, not off, just loose and I clicked it into place. After starting it again, it idling a bit smoother :rolleyes: I'm guessing under load, the sparker may not have been...

I had considered multipoint but as is the case with P38 ownership, there have been plenty of other issues with took my hard earned. I paid £3.5K for it and have receipts for another £3.5K since I bought it in April last year!! The only thing thats not standard are the tyres so it's not like I've...
