    Best to check the clutch fluid level first. If that is low or none there at all, its either the master or slave cylinder faulty/ leaking. Don't know what the ping could be, check the linkage on the slave cylinder. Good luck!

    I had oversized pins fitted by a local very small machine shop, it was very successful. The holes need to be drilled very precisely to work properly. The pins I was supplied with were harden steel and sold as original size but were in fact oversized.

    Found problem with starting was the ignition switch (see pic), starter is fine. So will not upgrade starter yet, if it ain't broke don't fix it!

    The moulded sets are the only ones that fit properly

    Have been advised by supplier (James Paddock) that some struts are slightly longer so require packers in the bottom to lock the insert solid. The inserts are only available in one size.

    Hi all Just fitted new gaz front strut inserts. They were shorter than the originals and did not touch the bottom of inside the strut. Just pushed the car up and down and there is knocking noises. Should I have put something inside the strut so to support the bottom of the insert? If so what? Many thanks

    2500 saloon The solenoid on my starter motor is on the blink. The question is, are the new hi torque starter motors worth the extra money? They are about £80 extra. Many thanks

    Driveshaft now reassembled and fitted. Ended up filing damaged the threads and got nut on luckily. All new bearings and UJ so all should be good now! Despite a telephone conversation, an email with pictures, and two whats app messages with pictures no replacement shaft. Spitbitz did not respond or replace the damaged shaft. Very disappointed with their after sales service and will not use again.

    Thanks will have a look at it. It happens to the rear carb on both my car's🙄

    Hello all Sometimes when I pull out the choke the carb jet sticks down even after I push the choke in. A quick prod and it springs back up and all is good, it's a bit of pain. I tried copper slip but no joy. Any ideas?

    Quite annoyed they sent me stuff like this,😡👎

    Just noticed the second driveshaft the supplier sent has knackered threads!😡 The hub had already been removed by a clown, looks like they hit it with a big hammer! Sent photos to supplier and waiting for response, not happy as I have fitted a new uj☹️😡

    Seat runners are from a 2000 I think.

    It's a patch of rougher metal . Yeah the ball bearing was spinning in the housing, must have made a hell of a noise! Thanks for the advice on the flinger position, a job for this week!

    Looks pretty normal to me!

    I purchased the driveshaft second hand from a supplier. I dismantled it as the main ball-bearing was shot, then discovered this. I have got a replacement from the supplier which is good. I may keep this as a spare. Thanks for the advice👍
  22. sulzerman
    Hi All Can anyone confirm if this driveshaft is usable or scrap? Many thanks

    I fitted a acccuspark unit to my spitfire, worked well for a few years, then car started to misfire. Replaced with points and condensor and all was well. I haven't bothered with electronic ignition again, I don't think they are worth the bother when I only cover 2000 miles a year! Had a complete failure with a pertronix unit on my 2500 saloon only lasted about 18 months, now on points and condensor.

    Had good fiddle this afternoon. Took out ignition switch while test lamp was on coil+ and battery-, all good not even a flicker on the lamp. Checked coil connections + feed to coil spade connection slightly loose. All others good, changed condenser as a precaution. Hopefully will be ok now🤞
