  1. Good morning, i am looking to install my hard top and was curious how the front two locating spigots operated. The side and back are straight forward but the front two I am unsure on. Wondered if someone may have a couple pictures? thanks Darren
  2. thank you guys for your input. The car runs fine now with its new voltage regulator and various other components. thanks again Darren
  3. Thanks Doug yeah wish to replace the voltage regulator
  4. Good evening. Okay so I have been right through the cooling system and I believe that it is working As it should. The radiator appears warm at the top and cool at the bottom. With the cap off the water seems to be flowing. The temperature gauge still reads high but the engine I believe is not over heating. I then put a volt meter across the light green wire going the temperature gauge to ground. The reading was some what spermatic going from zero to 12v but not holding a value. Electrickery is not my strong suit.. I shall replace the voltage regulator and see if this solves my issue. Could I ask maybe a stupid question. How best is it to remove the speedo? many thanks
  5. Excellent thanks. Not had chance to fill diagnose but have noticed turning the lights on alters the temperature read out. If I turn them on and off a couple of times I can get the needle to move nicely... thanks for your help
  6. Thanks guys. The fuel sensor didn't work when I purchased the car then started working and when I stated her back up yesterday After the changes I the fuel gauge wasn't working. Could I ask how best to check the voltage stabiliser? Think you could be onto something there as I'm not so sure it's over heating but not wishing to take a chance I'm turning it off once the gauge gets to 3/4. thanks again
  7. Good Morning, Couple of months ago I purchased a 1976 mark IV Spitfire. For the first part of ownership she ran perfectly with the temperature gauge never going passed half way. Recently however and for no reason I can see the temperature gauge just keeps climbing. I have flushed the system a few times. Replaced the thermostat and sensor. Changed the water pump and had the original radiator re-cored. Nothing seems to work. Just wondering if anyone has an idea of what I should do next? many thanks Darren
