Agree - have done it this way as well.

Checked the connection of the sensor is clean, shiny? Grounding that lead should produce full scale on gauge. Do you have an overflow bottle? How old is the sensor - 50 years?

I had a dealer 'redo' my seat once, and they badly overstuffed the cushion and I had them redo it.

Maybe it will all fit...

Info...Yes they are 28cc chambers. Not drilled for 14 bolts. B type is crank driven oil pump.

AFAIK all rocker gears can be used on all heads. This part no is the last head casting no. I think you will find a date of 94 or higher. There are some sharp corners in all the ports which can be readily smoothed with a drum shaped bit or similar . Are the valve guides relieved on the top to...

I removed some spacers from under my battery to get it to sit a bit lower, makes it easier to get the cover on neatly. When replacing the battery its a good time to go around all the earths/grounds you can find, disconnect, clean, Deoxit, reconnect. The obscure ones are the most likely to bite...

Never had any trouble getting a socket on the top bolt myself. getting specs like that is the valuable part of the late parts book - RTC9022B.

Davies-craig down here do a thermo switch with a relay and adjustable digital cut-in temp, but in the early models the cut out was only 1 deg C lower , which produced a lot of cycling. https://daviescraig.com.au/product/digital-thermatic-fan-switch-0444/digital-thermatic-fan-switch-12v-24v-0444

NOt aware of a 'standard rover thermo switch' ever being fitted to a P6? Isnt std thermostat 83C ?

90611504, special bolt, 3/8 UNC, 1 5/16 long. both types of starter.

Re thermo-fan switches - there is a myriad of these in several thread sizes, the commonest I have seen is M22x1.5. I had a boss this size fitted to my radiator last time it was out. Many are configured for single temperature, others have 2 settings. There are different cut-in, cut out ranges as...

I would guess you have upgraded your alternator - I doubr the 18acr would handle the load of those 2 fans for long.

Got 1 digit wrong - 603143 is correct. Here is the 3.9 block with the hole plugged. https://shop.roverp6cars.com/INLET-T-PIECE-FOR-CRANKCASE-BREATHER-3500

Heres the manual stuff....twice.

All of them, especially the 50 P4 with a 90 engine and grille, P3 gearbox with overdrive, bucket seats, P5 front drums... How cool can you get? Drove Melb ->Sydney once (900kms) , not passed by a single vehicle.

Yes pipe is available, I have one to put in a 3.9 block. 604143. Replacement with engine in ? Knocking the plug in would leave it in the valley with the pushrod and lifters, probably not good. Suggest Drilling a hole in it (with grease on drill), screwing a self tapper into it and pulling it...

The foam consistency is important in this area. I found it useful to put a smear of vaseline on the sealing area to help it .

Something else to consider. The rear gearbox mount has a big effect on the angle the engine sits at - my 4 speed was difficult to get into reverse becasue the rear mount was very soft, and the lever hit the sides of the tunnel hole - once fixed it was ok. I looked at the slope of the throttle...

Cant edit above ? The S suffix is short belt, 2025mm. I emailed with smith@hemco.com.au

The belt feeding off top reel is part# 1600051, somes in 3 lengths - 2,2.5,3m. Invoice was $148.50 posted. QTY Part No Description @ VALUE 1 1600051S 0/0º Mount Inertia Lap/Sash Top Panel Shelf $115.00 $115.00 1 1765374 Fixed Length Webbing Buckle 250mm Long S&H $ $20.00...

dont forget that the original box was not centered - look at the cast iron lump in the mount, its asymmetric. The diff input flange is also not centered, hence the uj offset in the prop shaft. My LT77 does not touch the tunnel sides anywhere, and I can get at those adjusters. This my box ready...

Agree that colour matching is nice, but surely they should be inertia reels? For the rear of a P6 I found ordinary inertia belt reels a very poor fit. Most reels feed the belt off the bottom, and in the rear this means the belt will rub badly on the seat back. Its not safe to lift the reel with...

Thanks for that - where did it come from? Where did CKD SD1s go - India?

This problem sounds like its just related to the set up of the spring wires and related bolts on the remote. There is a very good section in the SD1 manual on the process to get these settings right. Most should be doable from underneath. Its also possible that the lever retainer cup thing has...
