Re: FBHVC position on ban on sale of new cars with IC engines from 2030
I never drive into either Bristol or Bath any longer, mainly because of the parking charges, the bus fares are exorbitant as well, although fortunately I now qualify for a free bus pass.

I recently picked up a copy of the electrical wkshp manual off of the bay; I will dig it out later on.

Re: Rover Revivals Revival
Do you have the tools to change/time/tension the cam belts on a KV6 Craig as a matter of interest? :) I shall start to think about the refurbishment of my two GTI's next year so I will be coming up to have a chin wag and hopefully enjoy a brew! I'm that ancient that the old gits stipend kicks in soo...

Re: Rover Revivals Revival
Well done Craig, there is a lot of poor work done by the trade and not just by back street garages either. Part is probably ignorance of the vehicle and the rest a couldn't care less attitude.

Re: 1995 216SLI - impulse purchase!
Reference the clutch bite point; it's a manually adjusted clutch cable and you will need to remove the induction trunking/battery/battery tray to get near it. A set of 3/8 sq drive single hex' sockets will be very useful, pull back the adjuster as its located by small round dowels in the friction fa...

Re: Rover 416 GTI Auto - Restoring an old friend
Don't use waterless coolant [ Evans springs to mind ] it's secret lies in it's poor heat transfer characteristics. The stuff leaves the heat in your block/cyclinder head instead of transferring it to the cooling system! It's flammable and very slippery [like oil] banned by all forms of motor sport! :o

Re: Value for 416GSi?
Before writing it off, find out what is actually wrong with it instead of guessing. Water or condensension is a normal byproduct of the combustion process, especially from cold. A rough idle can be lot's of things, fouled injectors or failing or incorrectly specced spark plugs for example. I wouldn'...
