Ive heard Anfifreeze must be blue - just checked and mine is pink - Do I need to change ? Paul

Re radiator caps - are they all the same depth when screwed on - I purchased a spare but it doesnt fit as the internal depth is shorter due to a wider diameter internal base plate - hope this makes sense - I can bend the sealing lips but with twisting it jumps off the radiator lip Lastly looking at the Fahr - they look good though dont understand why you would need to release the pressure Paul

Hi Wolf - yes interior light converted to LED & part completion on dashboard ie Speedo , water temp ( currenty modern version guage ) Fuel guage - found out tacho & oil pressure guage have no bulb set so need to source these but cant find them at realistic prices - Chose the blue to making existing voltmeter ( this being a modern digital guage ) Pleased with the results

Thanks Kevin, found it . Need to check if mind is missing Paul

Where does the spacer tube fit ? Just in case mine is missing Paul

Hi found this Unipart item in the spares which came when I bought my Vitesse . The reference is 1 X 121255 S350 HI I hope its rare and worth lots of money Paul

I bought one for my Vitesse from the Club Shop whilst my garage was being built . Very good quality , good fit as well . Don't use it now and it's for sale if you think it would fit please PM me Paul

Newbie ? . How can you tell if a distributor needs replacement Paul

Thanks Pete Paul Thanks Pete , 6 sold in the last 24 hrs but thought Id check first before splashing the cash Paul

Welcome Mike, where are you based ? Paul

Hi saw this Kingavon Spark Plug Cleaner on Ebay - Gimmick or practical ? KIngavon Spark Plug Cleaner Paul

Yes it is - ive completed the boot , rear seat , front seats , just need to complete the footwells & fire walls - used www.silentcoat.co.uk 2mm + covered with closed 5mm black foam on the floors - much cheaper than dynamat and both available on Ebay - Yes it works very well and pleased with the results . Silent coat is self adhesive & i warmed the squares up with a heat gun then completed with a wallpaper roller, easily cut with scissors - The foam is also self adhesive Hope this helps Paul

Here' one I did earlier - and confirming the size is right as checked the oil the other day Paul

Same for me the new pump didnt work so bought a replacement refurb kit Paul

Hi Darren - I had my D Type OD professionally rebuilt for my Vitesse and running on EP90 Paul

one flat backed off is good advice though if youve repacked with grease check after a decent run as you might need to adjust again - Got the T shirt Paul

Hi Wolf, yes they are the ones you recommended . Took a couple of days . I will report back on their performance Paul

Just received interior light LED's though didnt realise glove compartment had a light , must investigate Will carry out some comparisons with existing bulb and report Paul

Hi Pete - your link didnt work try this Buckey paul

Hi I checked your reg on www.check-mot.service.gov.uk and this info was shown Regards Paul

Many Thanks - both ordered - I too have a melted interior light cover , have you converted rear lighting to LED ? Paul

Hi Wolf - very interested in your LED upgrades , could you give me an Ebay link for the bulbs & interior light ( ive taken my bulb out just in case I drain the battery ) Paul

Hi only recently been out in the Vitesse in the dark and the instrument lighting on my Vitesse is very poor - Is this normal ? if so what conversions eg LED are available Regards Paul

Halfords product recalled over concerns it could explode and cause injury PRODUCT RECALL: Halfords has recalled a batch of specialist primer over concerns that the containers could explode and cause injury. HALFORDS has recalled a batch of specialist primer over concerns that the containers could explode and cause injury. The retailer said customers who had bought the Halfords Weld Through Primer, which carries the item code 370426, should not handle the product and arrange for it to be collected. A total of 120 units from a batch manufactured in January last year have been found to be contaminated during the filling process, and have since over-pressurised, Halfords said. The cans could rupture and "propel the empty can at high speed", which could cause injury. There has been one reported incident involving the product. The product is a specialist primer designed for preparing repairs that are to be welded. Halfords said it had sold approximately 4,200 containers of the primer since September 2015. A spokeswoman said: "As a precautionary measure and to ensure consumer safety, Halfords has removed this product from sale and is recalling all unsold units with immediate effect. "Customers are urged not to handle this product, and are asked to contact the manufacturer, James Briggs Ltd, on 0161 393 3100 for advice on collection or email recall@jamesbriggs.co.uk.
