No Pompey, its a 1.6 cvh efi engine. It's a nightmare to find parts sometimes. Have you tried Ford, as sometimes if the is obsolete. They'll give you the last finis code. Then Google that number, normally you'll find the part. Good luck with your search. :)
 
Found the part I required ordered it, then got a refusal notice, Part not available, not important I am the choke at the moment :) cant remember, apart from the boat, the last vehicle I had with a manual choke

Rubbish service that, my mk3 Escort had manual choke and my old mk3 fiesta. I prefer carb engines, took me the best part of a year to get the efi engine running right. It's a nippy little car now though, only 110 bhp but car weighs less than 800kg. :)
 
22mm wheel nut covers, greased inside to cover my rusty nuts lol :D

Yeah, spot on. Tried one to start with, to make sure I could remove them. :)

Your BBS rims have shallower holes than my Trek rims. I expect they would be more difficult to remove from mine. They look perfect on yours though. ;)

Cheers, I had them on my old Freelander. On the 16" alloys. They come with 2 sizes of removal tools too. :)
 
Brought a leather refurb kit to do my RS 4 spoke steering wheel. Had loads left over, so I repaired the steering wheel in the Freelander.

All done, and leather protector applied.

Also found a collar, so I could tie the top the gear lever gaiter up.

Steering wheel came up nicely!. What did you use to restore life back in to it? Mine currently looks like your original picture :(
 
Thanks, will give it a go. I've seen things like this, but always been a bit sceptical. But the finish looks a great improvement. :)
 
What's wrong with the Vortex rims then?

2 keeping leaking on the rims, been cleaned up twice now and resealed but still leaking. Have to pump them up every week. Was going to get them refurbished, but a lot of money if they still leak afterwards. :(

I had 1 of my Trek rims leak after my Maxxis 771 were fitted. I had to pump it up weekly for about 6 months. Strangely the leak stopped after I swapped the wheels from side to side. I assume the tyre has bedded in and so stopped leaking.
