Yeah Bobsticle, maybe I'll get the hang of this new technology sometine soon ----- it's a long shot but I'll give it a try!!

Yep, that's the problem I had. I then resized the pics and carried out your 'copy and paste' instruction and --- hey presto--- it worked. Thanks again @miktdish for your help to this old bufoon!!

Hopefully all pics now uploaded!! I think it may have been a 'file size' thing!! Thanks to all out there who helped this old dumbf**k negotiate his way around modern technology!!

Try again ---- pic 1

That's what I thought I had done but, alas, it did not work!! I shall perhaps try again later ---- sneak up on the server and catch it by surprise ;););) Thanks for the beautiful pic, 2 little beauts!!!

I am having issues with uploading pics. I thought I had copied and pasted the pics but they do not appear on my message on this thread. Are others able to see the pics?

I have managed to source and fit all the required parts and have completed the fitting of the Oil Bath Air Filter. I have had to engineer a retaining fitting for the Oil Bath using steel wire and a turnbuckle fitting as the original retaining straps had been cut off. I have pics but, for some...

I just sent my V5 and the V112 with a covering letter to the DVLA Swansea and it was sorted in jig time. No histrionics or issues just 4 weeks later a new V5 arrived noting 'historic vehicle'. When I received my Motor Tax Renewal I took relevant docs to PO and they processed there and then, no...

Have searched eBay and bought one ---- Thanks for the tip Wildefalcon!! I will post later and let you know when I fit it and if evrything is OK.

I currently have a pancake air filter on my S3 but would like to fit it back with the Oil Bath Air Filter. I have recently acquired the Oil Bath unit but have come across difficulty sourcing the 90degree metal fitting that connects hose to the carb. The question I have is : Is it required that...

Lovely job. Nice to see a well fitted Cat Flap ----- took me over a year to source one!!

They're also as rare as hen's teeth!!!

I fitted inertia belts to my 1980 S3. They came from either Craddocks or Paddocks with brackets included. If I can fit them anybody can!!

I wonder if the water could be getting in through the seal at the bottom of windscreen being compromised. I too have noticed water ingress around the same area as you mention and appears to be coming from lower windscreen seal. I have one ready to be fitted and hopefully it may solve some of the...

Thank you!!

I'm presuming that's what he meant when he said he could 'Rev match' --- that's a new term for the lexicon!!! Think I'll stick with 'double declutch'!!

I noticed oil on outer rim of rear wheel, checked breather and it was blocked soild. Replaced same and am now wondering if it would be OK to top up with SAE EP 80/90 as opposed to the stipulated SAE EP 90? I guess I am presuming that it is EP 90 that is already in there!!
