    Truck cab fitting help

    cool, that's what I needed. Those special bolts (8), they go through the tube that the old roof sticks socketed into? I would guess the integrated washer sits on top, then the lower washer (10) sits underneath? Is it really just held in the middle and in the two front corners? that seems...

    I don't have any special bolts. I was hoping to find a diagram in the parts catalogue that showed it all but it doesn't seem to be in there

    Truck cab fitting help

    I've been converting my full tilt military 109 to a truck cab in order to try and preserve my canvas over winter. I'm struggling a bit with how to attach it. The only documentation I've found is page 76-8 which gives an exploded diagram of the cab parts only, and I'm not sure I've got them...

    Series 3 passenger side fuel tank

    Cheapest I've seen a cap is £111, ouch, might try scrubbing the rust off the one I've got. I'd like to use it occasionally for longer trips. What causes it? Just not used often enough, condensation gets in?

    Series 3 passenger side fuel tank

    The fuel tank on the passenger side of my truck has a corrosion problem. Not sure why or what's best to do about it. It still has fuel in the bottom but I don't dare switch to it because I'm worried about the rust particles that may get picked up. At a minimum I think I need a new cap, seal...

    2.25 petrol ignition timing

    it's the red one in that image, goes into the bottom of the same connector that has the one from the coil, which was a bit surprising to me! I still can't rotate the dizzy, so I guess i'm stuck with the timing i've got for the moment. Hopefully fiddling with the carb can get me under the CO...

    2.25 petrol ignition timing

    I found this picture that shows it, that was not obvious! Still can't rotate the thing to affect the timing though.

    2.25 petrol ignition timing

    sorry! also i've managed to pull this connector for the condenser out from somewhere but can't seem to see anywhere obvious that it came from!

    2.25 petrol ignition timing

    How would I check the compression ratio of the head (other than busting out the burette!)? I've slackened the pinch bolt under the dizzy but it wont turn at all, I've tried pretty hard. Ah I missing something else that would be locking it in place?

    2.25 petrol ignition timing

    Just failed am MOT on emissions, I haven't looked at the engine properly since I bought it, been too busy with the gearbox, so decided I need to give it a tune. I've looked up the engine number, should be 8:1, so according to the book I should be at TDC on the strobe. Putting the strobe to...

    Smiths gauge bulb holder

    I have a broken wire on one of my gauge bulbs, the cold start one. I've had a good look around and am really struggling to find replacements. The originals come pre-terminated, it's not clear to me at all that the centre pin connection comes apart at all. Are replacements with crimp terminals...

    Which stud does the handbrake spring anchor plate live on?

    It's been a couple of months since I took all this apart. I remember it goes behind the tab plate on the RHS gearbox mount but not which stud.
