I suspect so, @DaveA76 you have 2 options really, either buy something like https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394433263160 & wire one into each side.

 

Or do you know how many pins are on your flasher replay as you should be able to swap that out for a LED version.

Absolutely perfect thanks, just ordered a pair, 

Knew it was to with the resistance due to the leds but had no clue on how to rectify, all makes sense now

Hi all

I've just changed my front indicators to more compact units and now the both direction flash fast, all indicators are working, swap back to old units and they flash normal speed, as I'm rubbish with electrics this could probably be an easy fix but I'm not sure where to start 

Can anyone help me out and give me direction ( pardon the pun )

I've reluctantly decided to sell my much loved Robin Hood EXMO as at my age and with some health issues I need something with doors. The car is refusing to start at the moment despite all my efforts but I have not got the time or expert knowledge to sort it. It's been stood idle for the last 6 or 7 months and I need the garage space. the car is in good condition with no problems apart from not starting. The engine is a professionally re-built 2lt ford Pinto (205 block) with a Kent cams FR 32 fast road cam with Bosch modified distributor to match the cam, Kent adjustable cam pulley, twin Dellorto  DHLA 40 carbs, lightened and balanced flywheel, 4/2/1 exhaust manifold and all new coil ,distributer cap, plug leads and plugs, fresh oil and filter. I've recently built and fitted a new dash and new instruments. The tyres are reasonably good Yokohama A539s on ford alloy rims.

This would be a good project for anyone wanting a low cost project for anyone with a little more time and knowledge than myself. It has an MOT until April 24. I'm looking at around £1250 for it which is far les than the cost of the many tuning and modifying parts alone which are on the car and have done less than 1000 miles apart from the second hand carbs.

Anyone interested can message me on the club site. I have pictures if required which I can send via mobile phone.
