Tried the jack on mine and it didn't budge. I don't like how low it is our the look but i rarely hit anything, if I did ground out a lot I might be motivated to do something.

Did nobody get one these, I got one and seems to work great pulled up a 5mm stainless rivet like it was toffee. Thanks for the heads up Jim.

I'm a similar spec and fit my 2B very comfortably. Most things can be altered like raising steering wheel, slimmer seats etc. Which Robinhoods have you tried some are smaller than others.

I used Halfords earosol brake cleaner, went through most stuff in the cupboard and this worked well.

I had some panels like this, I found Halfords aersol brake cleaner shifted the glue quite well. Tried lots of things i had in the cupboard but this worked best, needs to be done somewhere well ventilated, outside is best.

Matt, if you and Keith want to convoy up Me, Gaz and Zach are going from Coventry. A good place to meet up is the Cooper Kettle cafe layby on the A5 west of Nuneaton. If you can get there around 9:30 should get to Dobbies for 11:00. Let me know what you plan to do.

If people want we follow could follow previous trips and meet up at Truckers Rest, WS11 1SF on A5. Meet at 9:30 for a 9:45 departure to get to Dobbies for 10:45, a quick fuel up then on to Rhug.

I'll be there.

There should be a pipe connecting to inlet manifold.

Looks like you need to unscrew the lower sleeve, the grub screws are usually under there.

Thanks for this one Andi, had loads of fun. Started peeing down near end of M69, drove through Cov with no roof in pouring rain got lots of bemused looks from people (couldn't be bothered to roof on too close to home). Thats an unnatural talent you have with a hammer.

What does the V5 state the Model as? Is it Zero or something else?

Google "lucas wiper switch" there are readily available switches that will work with the lucas wiper and provide the correct park.

Ah man, you missed the free food and booze and dancing girls. Better luck next time.

Sun's out, I'm out, gonna take a run over to this one.

And saved some more fuel on the way with that cylinder deactivation feature you had built in, shame I broke it and you have to run on 6 cylinders now instead of 3.

Looking forward to this one and whoever booked the sunshine did an awesome job looks like its going to be a scorcher. See you all at the Truckers Rest 10:15.

If its just me meeting at Copper Kettle, I'll come along to Richy and Martin further up A5.

Yes will meet at Copper kettle, what time do you recon? 9:45?

I'm booked into Llys Olwen with my brother Andy.

You could always fuse the alternator wire, use a midi type fuse near the battery. Go for a fuse value thats a bit more than alternator output.

Steve, Looking at pictures it does't look to bad, should be able to make goood. You'll need to check if any issues extend from the area of the "thermal event", if its just local to the area then just replace the burnt wires. I doubt you'll have an issue with the starter or alternator as the current would have ran from battery to chassis through the cooked cable. Jez

I think the numbers on the edis are cylinders not firing order, if you follow the ford firing order 142536 then this follows the coils as pairs 1/5 3/4 2/6 and repeat. If you swap 1/5 and 2/6 first spark is 3/4 second is 1/5 and third is 2/6 fourth is 3/4 fifth is 1/5 sixth is 2/6. So 1 2 and 3 dont fire.

That sort of thing in your picture left to right coils are 2 3 1, my theory is its wired 1 3 2. So if you look at the numbers on the edis as cylinder numbers connecting 1 to 1 and 2 to 2 etc as Zac did cylinders 1 2 and 3 dont get a spark.

Thanks for all you've done for the club Phil, anyone who selflessly volunteers to help others earns my respect.
