    Series 2a Wiring

    You'd be wise to ignore colours, they're likely to have been changed at some point in the last 50 years. It won't be hard to trace the wires back to their corresponding plug or component.

    Series 3 Starter motor causing sparks on throttle linkage when turning engine

    That 4v is the voltage needed for the ground to return to the battery, it should obviously be zero because there shouldn't be any resistance there. That also means your starter is only allowed to use 8 volts, because of the 4 needed to overcome the earth fault. Giving it a proper earth will...

    Series 3 Starter motor causing sparks on throttle linkage when turning engine

    Doesn't matter where it is, but I think it's usually on the right side if looking in the engine bay. No earth there would definitely explain the sparks, utilising the throttle linkage as the bridge between engine/starter and chassis.

    Screw in wheel studs

    It would be logical that they're done to the same torque as the wheel nut themselves, no? Perhaps with some strong threadlock to keep them there.

    Series 3 It’s all coming back to me now!!

    Just to pick a few... There were moments of gold There were things I'd never do again There were nights of endless pleasure There were hours that just went on for days Though I'm sure you could make all of it relate somehow.

    Much advice needed! (WARNING, NEWBIE IDIOT!!!!)

    Out of context yes it probably is, but I was referring to the multitude of similar questions he's already asked.

    Much advice needed! (WARNING, NEWBIE IDIOT!!!!)

    What would you do if you couldn't just make random threads on here asking pointless questions? Do some research, buy some books, go and look at different vehicles and work it out. You aren't going to make any progress (with a Landy or in life) if you expect everything to be spoon fed.

    Rust in peace

    No, that's not how it works. That's called theft. You might get V5 but doesn't mean it's yours.

    Original Seat Question

    The dash vents are simply an earlier version for S3 than the smaller ones.

    Series 3 Hood advice

    Can definitely recommend this. I run just the bikini top 75% of the time, then pop on door tops and the fume curtain if it's chilly or expecting to rain. I don't run the drain channels from screen to hoop, just the bikini top by itself. Yes there's a small gap around the door top when fitted...

    Engine mounting rubbers.......

    I read something about Transit mounts being the same fit and a partial upgrade. Can't offer any more than that.

    Series 3 Series 3 winch bumper build - photos

    This winch, Warn zeon, is designed to be mounted feet down or feet forward, so that's already been thought of by the manufacturer. I prefer to mount feet forward for reasons you said and so I could fill the gap between the radiator and bumper. The way the bumper is bolted to the chassis also...

    Series 3 Series 3 winch bumper build - photos

    I was dubious of the bumper fixings too, but you have to consider the winch itself is only supplied/fitted with 4 x M10 8.8 grade bolts anyway, so if they're up to the job so are the bumper bolts.

    Series 3 Series 3 winch bumper build - photos

    Afternoon all, Few photos of the bumper I've just finished for my 109. 6mm bumper with some extra brackets to accept a Warn 10,000lb 12v winch. Couple of recovery eyes for good measure then galvanised.

    Bonnet to bulkhead seal

    How is the water getting past the clutch pedal box? Unless that drain channel is missing large chucks or missing completely, I can't see that being at fault.

    79 109 hartop camper build .

    Do it yourself, I've had nothing but problems with 3 recon boxes. The only reason I went that route was to save time knowing I'd pay more. In the end I wish I'd done it all myself.

    Can’t think of another word for it so ‘shuddering’

    Removing the shoes will leave you without any foot brake, unless you clamp off the hose to the cylinder.

    Series 3 Electric fan install

    Fan comes on with the temp switch towards the top of the N, but takes a little while to go off. I'll perhaps go up one on the switch temperatures if they keep one in stock. Eventually goes off but not until well below the N
