From my late Father's estate is this 1969 2000TC with, I'm pretty sure, an accurate recorded mileage of 72000. The car hasn't run in 5 years and now needs welding to the four sill corners. The car was immaculate when Dad used to run it - it was his pride and joy and won a prize at the Woodvale...

I need to connect an underbonnet Facel electric fuel pump (see pic). It's already connected to earth, so I need to find a handy positive connection somewhere under the bonnet if possible. I'd kind of like the pump to have its own dedicated switch inside the car, rather than it coming on with the...

Well, I've owned a few P6s over the years - a '69 2000tc, a '77 2200tc and most recently a '73 2000sc, I've finally got the one I always wanted - the defining car of the P6 range, a 3.5 V8. If ever a car had my name on it, this one did. I first saw it for sale about 15 years ago and bid on it -...

Hello all. I haven't posted on here for quite a while, I sold my previous p6 (a 2000 sc) as it had rather more rust than I thought and the engine, once I got it running, proved to be at the end of it's life. Apart from that it was fine though! However, just last week I bought a 1972 V8 in...

Hello there While poking around under the rear seat squab today I found that the well had some surface rust. After some prodding with a screwdriver to test for strength, while most of the well is intact I found a small hole in the wall of the well, towards the rear of the car, such that I can...

Hi there Hoping someone can help out with some electrical problems on my 73 2000 sc. The car has been off the road since 1992 and I'm currently recomisioning it. Problems are as follows (electrics are not my strong point, so an idiot's guide would be much appreciated): 1. Ignition light is...

I wonder if anyone could help with diagnosing an engine problem on my 2000 sc. The car was laid up for 22 years and engine was pretty sludgy inside. It's cleaned up now and has fresh oil and petrol. It was very reluctant to start but I eventually got it going and it ran reasonably well, sounded...

Just a quick question before I dive in and get my hands dirty, as it were. I need to completely drain the 22 year old fuel from Ulrich the P6's tank and lines - had a look in the factory manual but it's a little short on detail - are the connections to the tank accessible from under the car, or...

Hallo! New member here, just thought I'd share my latest automotive acquisition - it's a 1973 Rover 2000 SC manual. It's my second P6, the first was a 1976 2200 TC that I ran in the noughties, and have always regretted selling. Anyway, I happened to glance at Gumtree a few weeks ago, where I...
