    Clutch Master Cyl Pushrod

    As title I need one cos mine's snapped :shock: to avoid any confusion it's for a 4cyl & it's the rod that threads through the pedal & attaches to the clutch master cylinder with a circlip. So if anyone has an old cylinder that still has a pushrod I would be very happy to take it off your hands...

    V8 Autobox question for Harvey

    A member of another forum I go on is looking at a '72 3500 with a G/box issue, he says in his words "Reverse has gone, spring on the reverse valve has snapped" I'm guessing it's a case of stripping the valve block & replacing the spring but thought I'd run it past you first & see what you...

    Another one for the P4 experts

    My friend with the 95 is having running problems which I suspect are mainly down to a knackered dizzy & low octane petrol, but one P4 "expert" has told him it's more likely to be the valve timing 180 degrees out :shock: Surely it just wouldn't run at all or are we missing something?? Regards Col

    You Shouldn't Laugh!
