    Rover Won't Start. Cold Weather Tips?

    I swapped my blown pertronix ignitor electronic ignition back to the points and condenser system. The car ran great for the fall season, but now that its winter I cant get the damn thing started. Its dropping snow outside, like 4 inches in 5 hours, and its cold as fook.... The exmod turns over...

    series 2a off road prep???????

    Dude... if the only reason you want to put offroading stuff on your car is to make it look cool you don't deserve a series IIa... Get outside and take that car on a trail ride. Anyone who knows dick about offroading is still gonna think its a pretty freakin cool car.

    Callin All Carb Experts/Weber owners, HELP!

    Is the 32 ICH even smaller than the 34 ICH? The 34 seems to be a tiny little thing, pretty restricted air flow. I have one on my truck and I wish I had a rochester.

    Loss of Drive

    Nothing is a coincidence on a rover... The parts plot against us and fail in waves. But yeah... Probably unrelated. Happens all the time on mine. I look for the solution to one broken thing, and end up following the wrong troubleshooting tip because something else is broken and I didn't even...

    series 2a off road prep???????

    You can have them converted to a coil sprung defender chassis. That would be the way to go if you want serious off roading. I would try a simple add a leaf suspension and put some slightly bigger tires on. You don't want to loose your torque though, the 2.25 petrol engine is putting out about...

    Smoke coming from flasher switch.

    I'm going into town today to buy a nice crimper and a bunch of terminals. Any thoughts on what gauge of wire I should get for simple dashboard wires? I'm gonna redo every one that looks at me the wrong way.

    So I have 5 wires... A light green that is hot. a black/white, darkgreen/red, darkgreen/white, that read 12 volts when metered with the light green, and a black/red that doesn't read anything when its connected to the light green. How do I go about hooking this up? Can I use any old 3 position...

    Smoke coming from flasher switch.

    I was driving to my work and as I turned into my parking area smoke started wafting out of my steering column/flasher switch. Now my turn signals don't work and I have to try to make it home before the cops catch me... Lucky that I work at the courthouse tonight.... Also today the spring that...

    Series rover mudding tips?

    We have laws in Alaska, but not many cops. I could probably get along just fine running beadlocked rims with 40 inch mudders on my daily driver.
