    I have found modern Waxoyl does set hard, rock hard in fact.. I left some in a jar with a brush, brush was solid in the waxoyl although it did not stick to the glass. I would stick with the sealant Ian. Tony.

    Great stuff nice to know that it is sorted..... Don't forget we were all a "newbie" at one point..... Tony.

    Looking at the plugs Oliver it is running a bit rich, unless you have only done a short run before taking them out? Tony.

    I'm with Clive, try a decent condensor especially if you have hot starting problems as well? Tony

    The Renovo product should not be used on vynyl if i remember rightly. Great for a mohair roof though. Tony.

    A bit like Muffin the Mule..... Tony.

    Done one a while ago to replace the central locking solenoid, pain in the bum first time around. Not a bad idea though. Tony.

    Well done Paula, really pleased for you Tony.

    It's a Radiomobile Pablo Triumph fitted those as standard mostly, two of mine have them. Good radio in the day, they can be converted to modern. Tony.

    Moss should have them in stock as they fit a huge range of cars Tony.

    I think those would have been bp 5e Paula which would be correct as per the manual, which equal champion n12y. Just have a look the manual. Tony.
  18. poppyman
    Just wondering why the short reach were in Paula? Tony.
  19. poppyman
    I have to say i was thinking that myself Pete, but not knowing a lot about the 1600 thought they might be different? I used to have the bp6hs in my sidevalve pop. Tony.

    Just take them out and clean them Paula, then give them a few minutes in the oven to warm them up before you fit them.... It does make a bit of a difference if its a bit flooded with fuel. Tony.
  21. poppyman
    Agree with non member Paula, might be an idea to swop the plugs as well if you have a spare set..... It's trying to go.... Tony.
  22. poppyman
    Have you got any brake cleaner Paula, spray some into the carbs and then try. Tony.
  23. poppyman
    Go for it Paula, my dad used to women are good at "torque ing" something like that anyway Tony.
  24. poppyman
    I had the same problem Clive, only one door card didn't survive as it went rock hard when crinkled and fell to bits. So used emulsion on the headlining which came out far better than i had hoped for Tony.
  25. poppyman
    I think vinylcote might be to strong chemical wise for it as the headlining is quite thin Nick?? Great for seats though. You can get black emulsion but only use vinyl silk, the others tend to crack. Tony.
