  1. What was the prep for that? Anything special? SP
  2. Wow! It looks like I'll be under my car for quite a while.
  3. Hello wise and wonderful people. I will soon be starting to scrape off the old crud and wire wheeling the underside of my Mk3 Spit. My car ins't a show pony and won't be winning any awards so I'm looking for suggestions of what I can spray or brush on to the underside of the tub and chassis to prevent rust. I've been warned that some stuff on sale can be flammable and to steer clear of it and I'm also looking for something thats going to last a few years as I don't really want to be doing this each year. If you have any suggestions they would be gratefully received. SP
  4. Chocolate? Crikey! You must be good if you're at chocolate biscuit level of payment sp
  5. 🤣🤣 I did actually give him some money. I'll have a tinker when I've got some time when the weather turns. I keep meaning to stock up on biscuits and go and visit @Pete Lewis. I might sneak this along with me and get him to give me some on the spot training sp
  6. That seems like perfectly sound advice to me
  7. Yes I'm fortunate thats there and the guy was really kind to offer it to me. I'm just a bit nervy messing around with the carbs as I have no idea what I'm doing and my mind goes numb when the nerves set in. 😬
  8. The rubbers are actually in great condition. I'll give it a go at some point, possibly after summer in case I mess it up and it stops me from taking the car out in decent weather sp
  9. Trust me, I won't be touching anything once I have the readings. All my dabblings have cost me money. Actually come to think of it, just about everything has cost me money 😂 SP
  10. Some kind gent stopped as he was walking by when I was diagnosing an electrical fault and said. "I've got something that might be of use to you, just give me a drink" So after giving him a glass of water he returned with this..... If only I had a clue what the readings meant SP

    Thanks Pete, I bought some pipe from the club shop as we discussed elsewhere. I'll swap the pipes out and and leave the lead balls where they are. You the man. 👍 SP

    I've got the lead balls added into my tank in my 1970 mk3. Would you recommend I just remove them, change the fuel pipes and put E5 in? Cheers SP
  13. I’ve heard there’s a set up guide on here somewhere, I’ll have a search
