Always wanted another challenge. I've sent an email to my local Rover club to see if anyone has one laying around, here's hoping. I'm wondering if I could have the worn bit built up and grind it back to into shape. looks like aluminium to me.
Vern, round and teardrop? So my one is a teardrop...
Hi Chaps, Thanks for the feedback. Spring still works well. Door shuts with a nice clunk just with gravity and sits flush to the body. It seems to pop open depending on the road surface, the more vibrations, the quicker it opens. Attached is a closer up photo and the rear door latch that has no...
Hi All
My drivers door has started to pop open to its first latch position whilst driving. I believe the flippy rotating thing is worn as its profile is different to the other doors. There are new old stock available for the other doors but not the drivers. Is it possible to repair, rebuild or...
As well as a jumping needle, I had a weird fault where the indicated speed didn't change when accelerating and only showed the new speed when you lifted off. (getting a surprise at how fast I was going sometimes) Cleaned the cable with wax and grease remover and a fresh dose of lithium grease...
Wins sell them
Wins International - Wiper Motor Mounts - set of 3
Or search for "anti vibration mounts" and take your pick.
I got mine from 'RS" who do anything technical it seems. Don't know if they are in the UK though. They have 461 options for that search.
Have fun...:thumb:
All back together again. Patched up the spaces on the cold air ducts. Heater matrix all great, tested with hot water. All flap seals rebuilt with 3mm neoprene foam and preloaded overnight to form a perfect seat. Any surface rust removed and complete anti-rust treatment. Fan motor dismantled and...
Another question for you all.
After some to-ing and fro-ing with the garden hose I've improved the flow through the matrix after some blobby things found their way out.
However, on "heater Box Anyone" I read that good flow doesn't mean a good matrix due to an 'internal bypass' or is this just...
Brilliant.:thumb: Thanks Demetris. Always a logical reason for things in a P6. Have already pulled the glove box's out and the radio consul to get at the control linkages. That was the only way to disconnect them due to my large hands and small spaces. With all that cold air under the dash, it's...
Hi All
Pulled my heater out today to try improve hot and cold air flows. Figured most of the air leaks are from foam seals on the flaps being shot, which they are, but what has caught me eye is the gaps in the duct to the face cold air vents.
If you inspect the photo looking into the top hole...
Don't know if I'm correct or not but NOS is 40+ years old already so rubber parts will be pretty stiff by now, even if unused.
Tom's going to try one soon, we'll know in a year or so if his is a goodie:rolleyes:.
The Monroe's were on the car when got it so can't help you there. I pulled them off to check their condition and reinstalled as they are fine.
However, I did replace the fronts recently with GAZ adjustable shocks. Got them from Rimmers in the UK. (best price) but with freight and GST it becomes...
Your correct. But being dependant on remote trading I cant afford to burn any bridges especially with the smaller suppliers. I prefer to contact them directly and resolve issues out of the limelight. (but if that fails, it's open slather:LOL:)
