Hello All, today I cleaned up my oil bath air cleaner and after getting all the mug and cruff off it, it wasn't black as I was expecting. It was bare metal (so a combination of shiny steel and surface rust). What are people's thoughts on how to proceed? Painting it black with something like...

Hello All, I'm trying to work out a few things from my current wiring - I'm looking for some help to work out whether my lights switch on the dash is working, and how it should work if it is; also, what Dynamo I have fitted and what the connector/pin out is on it. Any help would be much...

Hello All, I appreciate this has a reasonable chance of turning into a thread full of birds nest photos taken off google, but I wonder if anyone has any good photos of the routing of the wiring harness, particularly in the engine bay? I'm interested in both diesel and petrol 2As. The reason I...

Hi All, due to lots of other stuff going on and the weather, I've been relegated to doing up small parts in the evenings. Headlamp assemblies are coming along - new sealed beam units. I've been surprised at how well the light unit rims have come up - wire wheeled and evaporust for a week, then...

Hello all - spent this afternoon cleaning up the Speedo from our 2A and I'm looking for the various rubber bits that have inevitably perished. I've got some o-ring cord, but things like the rubber grommets around the warning light tubes and the rubber gasket in the back of the housing are not...

Hello All, 1st time poster, medium time lurker - very recently acquired a series 2A 88" Diesel - a reasonable project but hopefully lots of little jobs instead of one big one! Step one... working out what I've actually got... and immediately I need some help! Probably the first post of many I...
