Sometimes the inner spring comes off when fitting oil seals, you can add some grease to the inner spring are to stop the spring coming off. Also push the seal in if you can, you also need to lube the running surface before fitting.

Both Big connectors go to the battery, I think it's a way of reducing the resistance by using two wires.

Off memory the coolant pipe is needed on the V8, its connected to the Pent House Vent, as said earlier it’s to keep the manifold temp stable and to stop air locks in the cooling system.

I have seen water pump impellers wear

Confused, is it a 2.5 or 2.1/4 just 90’s have a 2.5 engine with a slightly different fuel system, it has a fuel return. Does it have an electronic fuel pump? Mechanical fuel pump, it sounds like the float in the carb could be at fault, its not uncommon for the float/needle or seat to become...

It’s an earth problem, other bulbs being illuminated while switching on others is a sign of the circuit can’t be completed other than going through another bulb. Check your earth connections, joints to do with the problem lights.

More info pleases series??? 2 or 3, (S2) it sounds like either like the mechanism from the clutch slave has broken and pushing on your pedal has forced the clutch slave cylinder to the end of its stroke and gone solid. S3, your clutch release bearing has collapsed or the clutch cover has...

Try disconnecting the senders, one at a time, if the gauge drops you know which one is at fault, (switch in the correct position) if you have disconnected both and the gauge is still reading full the wire from the rear of the gauge to the changeover switch must be shorting out. Disconnect this...

The reverse springs (external) hold the gate closed to stop accidental movement into reverse. If the pinch bolts in the selector shafts are loose it can cause gate misalignment and problems in selecting gears. There are other springs inside the top cover (Detent springs) these hold the...

Use the v8 clutch, make sure the driven plate slides up/down the first motion shaft, if the splines are the same, job done. If the splines are different just use a Series 2/3 driven plate.

Blue smoke is usually burnt oil, Black is usually unburnt fuel

Ask the guys at the your motorist shop, the books they use give filter info size, thread etc.

That looks the job, that wasn’t what I was on about but does the same, it looks like the hole in the side is for the Temp sender. The T piece I was on about was a brass T with a hole and threaded, I think you can get them from a motorist shop and would be £££ cheaper. Saying that the unit...

I think I have seen a T into the oil pressure sender, the T giving an outlet for the pressure and temp.

I cant say for sure but M18 doesn’t sound like a normal bolt.

How are you earthing them? One wire should be the gauge one should be the low fuel warning lamp and the other earth. If you are using the earth wire and its broken nothing will work, try a known good earth. They are not a live as you would think, the live feed goes through a voltage...
