Couldn't seem to rid of the Airbag Fault message knowingly.. but... it has gone now so it MUST have been one of the connections, annoyingly I didn't 'see it' disappear... if that makes sense?? Thanks again to all advice! MOT picked up on front radius arm bushes and track rod ends.. so hopefully...

I've just used Footman James again, Classic Policy and more than acceptable. I use them for a couple of bikes too.. I find them faultless. Titch

Thanks on that!!

Taking my 4.0 for MOT next week... I'm always nervous. but then, if anything crops up it's always for a reason.. legal & safety one's at that. The outcome of the test will confirm as to weather I invest in a Nanocom for myself ( when I find the Piggy bank!) Today I'm aiming to sort the 'Airbag...

Well, the rear is.. just the front to do this weekend... I am feeling more content now.... Titch

Very neat Flossie!!

Well, I do feel that the temperature is reading OK on the sensor.. get's darned warm through the heater etc and heater controls do work accordingly yes! Titch

It will be smaller on the metalwork Flossie, but I used the existing pipe which was there, using an inline straight coupler from my new matrix hoses to join up.. Otherwise, you may need the verniers.. Titch

I worked all underneath the pedals etc Flossie, yes, a bit of cutting of ducting etc..NOT an easy job I didn't think at all..but feel happier with the Nissen matrix in that I fitted new heater pipes up through the bulkhead too.. I see it as a better fitment than O rings.. which inevitably won't...

Ah! About to do mine soon too, so that's a reassuring note! Same make already purchased... Titch

Hi Folks, yes, I've not put too much back together so I still have access to the jubilee clips.. for that very reason.. I'll run it for a few weeks yet so I can keep an eye on it.. Also yes dude, I ran new heater pipe through the firewall/bulkhead, removing the aluminium tubes altogether.. NOT...

Thanks on that.. yes I had considered using a small M5 bolt.. but.. I went for the Nissen matrix in the end.. not having to worry about the bolt in the centre 'pulling' the aluminium bracket and the O rings to perform a seal.. I can't see it being that effective unless it was a larger bracket...

but then 'another' Google search comes up trumps.. Sorry folks.. Titch

I've decided to go to a coil spring conversion........ Sorry all.. I just don't want reoccuring issues with EAS.. A few years ago I had a P38 diesel with springs and that was fine for me, so we'll go for it.. I have another P38 with a conversion on with the electric plug in overide to stop my...

Received a call from Les Edwards yesterday.. unit is on the way back now, so come the weekend I'll hopefully hear the 'burble' again.... Will let you know.. Titch

Again, Top Man thanks.... Titch

Hi Folks, where does the 'seal' go on this matrix? I cant see any evidence on the old one I took out?? Does it go on last before reassembly?? I can't get my 'Rave' working on the laptop yet so but hoping there would be a 'picture' on there that may help.. would anyone have access to this and...

That's fair comment yes.. my thoughts too, but I'm going to have to make some short pipes to fit over the aluminium ones, or just extend them through the bulkhead.. and I simply struggle with my back being under there.. so will be going with standard fit. I had contemplated it though yes thanks...

No, it's time to ask my lad next time he's over... it's beyond me.. But drained the water all out last night, and flushed it too. It's an odd feeling having to buy antifreeze today for the refill! I will be refitting the heater matrix tonight time permitting. I now have another new matrix and...

Ah Datatek, thanks.. Ironically I've had the disc for years.. when on my first P38.. and that was always looked at on Windows 98.. Still use that computer every day of the week plus two others in my business, it's 25 years + old!! However, I think the Laptop is on XP Professional... do I have to...
