Went To View An S7 Today. I Have A Few Questions

[Guest mower man]

With out looking vfl 101 will fit pinto as well not pos but will confirm later mower man

[Bob Tucker]

isnt motaquip ford's accessory division..or am i confusing motorcraft?

[Guest Ian & Carole]

Bob

Motor craft was Ford.

 

[Bob Tucker]

Just confused as usual then...

[Guest mower man]

Motorquip retail/ wholesale most things automotive , brakes, clutches ,coolant hoses most of the factors in my area supply their stuff mower man

Bobs suggestion of a filter is the same as a VFL 101 after a lot of research! So I bolt off the return... Can I do that right above the tank rather than having it run right through the car?

 

Struggling to remove the oil sump... Can't seem to release it. There is a lot of sealant and it looks like a double gasket has been fitted. Possibly I'm just being a bit soft....

 

5.1 dot break fluid alright?

[Guest A.B]

Didn't undo the oil pick up pipe...

 

So is it an-6 pipe that I need on a c20xe fuel line? What about the oil lines as they are larger?

[Guest A.B]

Ordered the braided lines and such... It is an-6 for fuel I'm using an-10 for oil because of the oil cooler.

 

Next on the list is a filter for the twin carbs any recommendations? I'm thinking ram air...

 

Only problem is fitment as the engine is mounted slightly forward in these it doesn't leave a lot of space... Air filter is 12cm wide, I don't have that much space between the carb and bodywork... I guess it's just foam but I'm worried about the mounting bracket.

Looks like you may need shorter trumpets or a hole in the bonnet, the old rule of thumb was the distance from the end of the trumpet to any restriction is 1 1/2 times the trumpet dia.

[Guest A.B]

Looking into the tie rod end conversion... How difficult is it to do? Remember I bought it, I haven't built it

[Guest mower man]

Pm your POSTAL address to me and i'll send parts list instructions photos etc ,it's FOC just a thank you required mower man

[Guest A.B]

I'm struggling to find the correct bush that's fore mentioned in this thread, my top mount bushes. Can't Seem to ID the suspension model. Is it just a case of measuring it and hoping for the best?

 

Can anyone give me a how to guide as I don't know how the suspension is set up ie if I undo a bolt what knock on effect it will have. Do I need to compress the spring ect?

[Guest A.B]

The 'mini lights' on my car don't seem all that light at all to me. So I'm looking for something else, what size will I get away with 4x100 15" but what J sizes can I get away with?

[Guest Ian & Carole]

If your running gear is Ford I think you will find you want 108 PCD not 100!!!
