My RHD 1973 2200sc auto has it fitted. My bet would be that most get launched when the bell housing gets removed. Nick

Bolts to the 2 x top bell housing bolts and the battery lead clips into it. The one to the starter motor. Nick

Hi Eddy I have a strip speedo from a 2000 sc that was a right off in the 70`s FKR 931L with just 2400 miles on it. Its rusty as hell where its sat in the garage for the last 25 years when I removed it. It may or may not work but you are welcome to it if you have no luck with the cable. You have...

As for the oil leak, my money is on the cylinder head `O` ring at the back. Well worth a good look as they have a habit of leaking when the rubber goes hard and leaks down the back of the engine. Nick

morning Rich. With the recent chat about seat belt testing would it be an idea to put a link to the testers manual somewhere as a sticky so everyone can look at the requirments , it would be up to date with current testing. anyway just a thought. keep up the good work you do. regards Nick

Why not remove the oil pressure switch and give the hole a good squirt with an oil can, refit the switch and leave it a couple of hours to drain back through the oil gallery. Nick

Well it sold then Anyone on here buy it? Nick

I did see the car in the flesh last year and it is a cracking car. Personally I would source a 2200 tc engine and return it to `as was` speck. Rover P6 2.2 2200 TC complete engine | eBay Sure it wants striping and a few bits sorting out but in my view worth the money and effort.

Ed just a question, do you need a workshop manual ? as I have one going begging that you are welcome to have. Don`t want anything for it. Your welcome to it, if its of use to you. Its the proper one with the two supplements Nick

Crickey mate tell me that`s not the proper mileage. Two and a half thousand miles since 2006. I have to say I do like the strip speedo and round clock/rev counter. Have you run it through the old police computer yet? Nick

Yeah it sounds like the lock needs replacing.You should not be able to remove the key with the engine still running. Have a look to see if the shear bolts have been snapped off. If they have been sheared off, it is a bit of a pain getting to it with a centre punch if they have been left whole I...

Welcome Eddy Wasn`t you who gave me a ticket on Blue Bell hill back in 1977 was it? Ha Ha! I`m only up the road from you so hope to see you about in it. If you get stuck for parts or advice this is the best place for help Nick

Thanks for that ,I have decided on two felt seals (one either end) The worst that can happen is sieze up and have to be removed again. Nick

I am in the process of changing my old leaking and corroded dion tube. I have stripped down two spare grease filled tubes so as to pick out the one in best condition. Now on pulling them apart one was fitted with the 2 felt seals (one either end) and with the metal retainer washer The other...

In the past I have followed the WM and removed one rear elbow to remove the dion tube, but it crossed my mind that you may be able to remove it if you can compress it enough to get it past the the fixed studs in the elbow. Has anyone tried it this way? If so did you need to leave the weight on...
