It does sound like heat is the issue, vapour lock? The weber carb kit comes with an inline fuel filter which sits directly over the manifold. If you have one I'd remove it even just fir safety reasons. 1. Check fuel tank isn't rotting from inside out, big chunks can clog up the carb. Mine...

Replaced the series 3 shocks. The bushes had lasted well but the shocks gave zero damping. I can't say the new kit transformed the ride, it still feels like a leaf sprung series, but it does feel a little more predictable. Replaced the wing stays while I was under there. The last job I...

A couple of my seals just have plastic fir tree clips that have held well bit I've been meaning to replace them with the specific ones Emberton Imperial sell.

Congratulations on your series 3. I've never seen a snorkle that big 😃. Make a list and get cracking. The first job I'd do is Inspect the chassis and get some protection on it.

I've heard good things about Undercover covers.

I thought that looked perfect for camping, canvas is doesn't sweat like modern tents. Exmoor trim advise periodically using Fabsil and It's satisfying watching the water bead off it.

You've done a great job wildefalcon, it looks really nice fitted.

That will look great with a hood, mine is also a factory light green. Have you got the rear window goal posts? Exmoor trim sell the bits to attach the hood. Pricey, but it does make life easier have the correct parts ready.

I think the main purpose is to reduce the crank case pressure preventing seals/gasket being damaged, venting it into the carb and reducing emissions. I think a faulty valve can upset the idle and running. There's a tiny bleed hole on the top plate and with all the years of grease built up, I...

An update on servicing the 2.25 petrol pressure control valve PCV. The rubber diaphragms are easily sourced for MG/triumph, they are made in Britain and appear good quality. To check the valve you can blow down the the top and check for sealing. One of the two metal pipe brackets was missing...

Did you get the dimensions? Are you having to rivet on the tie down tabs? Someone with a 109 must have the dimensions. Is this what you mean?

Thank you hopefully the new parts fit correctly.
