    Hi well i was a brave man and bought the car as a non runner ,so its anybodys guess,but it was a real mess in that tank.it was like tar when wet but as it dried it crystallized and went brittle,never would have believed it if i hadn,t seen it for myself.

    Well if you read my last post all pointed to petrol pump failure,but because i had put a new Bearmack pump in about 3 months ago i found it hard to believe the pump had failed so soon.well i had no other option but to take out the pump.The pump looked like it had been in the tank for over a 100...

    p38 headlight upgrade

    do you know you can modify your own headlights ,separate the glass from the headlight reflector with a heat gun,paint it then refit the glass with sealant,cheaper than buying new parts
