Not quite sure if this really belongs in "Brakes", but what the heck. After changing brake discs, I can't seem to get the front left wheel ...   07-28-2008 09:52 pm

My heater fan seems to have called it a day, so I need to replace - or at least service - it. Can it be ...   05-28-2008 05:20 am

Investigated the matter a bit more yesterday. It would seem that my car has _both_ a mechincal valve and a vacuum valve. The hot/cold lever ...   05-28-2008 04:57 am

Good thing the fan motor doesn't work and I just bypassed the whole thing then... Seriously, I'll have to see if I can find some mechanically ...   05-27-2008 10:28 am

I just removed the vacuum valve on mine (18711), since it was leaking badly. Does it serve any other purpose than heater on/heater off? There ...   05-27-2008 07:57 am

18711 has an aftermarket* (and stuffed up) radiator, so I am in dire need of a replacement. The local car parts supplier has loads available, ...   05-27-2008 06:32 am

Thanks, that worked. Was a bit too careful, the rubber is brittle after a long life in the sun. -- Joachim ...   05-13-2008 06:22 pm

The right rear side marker has burned out, and I have removed the marker from the car. Is there any way of opening it, so ...   05-12-2008 06:26 pm

It's sorted. There was a break in the wire between the switch and the junction just forward of the firewall, sorted that and a lot ...   05-12-2008 05:13 pm

I think I may have been a bit unclear here: I start with the end of the red wire at the lights switch, I am ...   05-11-2008 06:47 am

There is an open circuit somewhere between the lights switch and the first junction (probably anyway, since I have no rear lights, pos lights or ...   05-10-2008 09:54 pm

Oh Joy! It is running again, a new coil fixed the last problems. It is now revving like it should, idle is back, ignition still needs ...   05-01-2008 01:42 pm

One thing out of the world, at least: The cams were two teeth too early, so the alignment marks were right, confirmed by visual inspection ...   05-01-2008 06:17 am

Reviving an old thread: I think this just happened to me. Now, I don't get spark at all, it seems, the timing light has only given ...   04-28-2008 06:26 pm

I tried to figure this one out by myself this afternoon, and did more or less what you described, except I made a note of ...   04-27-2008 08:44 pm

Mkay? If my maths aren't completely bonkers, that would put the timing marks to the outside, but still as off the centre line. The cams seem ...   04-26-2008 11:19 am

Morning, all! Fresh JH owner form Norway here, bought 18711 three weeks ago. It is in fine shape, rust wise, not too bad in the ...   04-25-2008 07:14 pm
