I'm replacing the exhaust guard on my 1994 K series. Where's best to source the jubilee clips? Thanks
-
SM25T. I used WD40 Fast Release Penetrant. Sooty. That looks like a good plan. Toby S. I'm off to buy some Harpic. Thanks for advice. Paul
-
Good call! They took a little bit of persuading and WD40 but they seemed secure.
-
Centre mount already fitted. The split is where the tailpipe meets the silencer. I'm surprised how easy the bolts are to move. Thanks for advice.

I'm removing the exhaust from my 1994 K series for some welding. I'll be replacing the bobbins and giving everything a polish. Any advice, pitfalls or things to be aware of? Thanks Paul
-
That was me. A great drive out, 65 wonderful, sunny miles.
-
Thanks to everyone for advice, guidance and suggestions. Doug at Just Add Lightness has very kindly sourced a relay with buzzer from one of his suppliers. Great service from JAL

K7 I'm trying to source a suitable unit. Paul

In an attempt to reduce the risk of me driving with my indicators on. Is there an audible relay unit available to simply replace the existing relay? 1994 Caterham 7 K series. Thanks
-
Thanks Paul, I'll clean all contacts. Where will I find the MFRU?

Turned the ignition on, all lights and gauges working but when I pressed the start button... nothing. No noise from injectors. Turned off the ignition, turned on the ignition... starts and runs perfectly. Car is currently on CTEX MX-5 and started once a week. 1994 Supersport 1.4 K-series. Any ideas?

Robin Hood?

I have a Banner battery (2 years old) fitted to my 1.4 Supersport. If I don't use the car for about a week the battery drops from 13.5v to 11.4v. Is this an issue or normal? Thanks
-
Thanks all, My car's at CC Gatwick on Friday so I'll ask if they can supply and fit.

The boot cover on my 1994 S3, standard roll bar is showing its age. I've looked at Oxted Thundersports web site and they supply the boot cover and a tool/fittings. 1. Is it an easy job? 2. How do I work around the harnesses bolts? 3. What, if any, pitfalls do I need to avoid? Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks

Drive it. I use my 7 as often as I can. It's used all year round unless it's icy, raining/snowing, salt/grit on the road. I understand this is impossible if you're in the USA or Canada but in the wilds of Surrey/Sussex - no problems. Thermal vest, T shirt, winter coat, hat and gloves, no roof or doors.

Grey with blue stripes. I was in white MX-5, flashed you.

Car is 1994 Supersport S3. The last few weeks I've been getting a rattling noise from under the car around the transmission tunnel. I've identified the culprit as a lose speedo cable. I've fitted a cable tie to the cable where it exits the dashboard/scuttle and added another cable tie underneath the car. The rattle is less than it was but still evident - any other ideas? Thanks Paul
-
The seat runners on my 1994 Supersport (they are the old U shaped) could do with replacing (a bit of sideways movement), a long shot I know but has anybody got a pair they could sell me? No luck at Redline or Caterham.
-
20 Reg. Blue with Orange stripe. Just picked it up?
-
Went out yesterday and today. Use my car all year.
-
I've heard Andy Belcher's name mentioned quite often. There seems very little information on how to contact him and what he offers. I believe he works in Redhill which is only 5 miles from me.
-
Thanks all for all your advice and guidance. I've used the clay bar and AutoGlym polish and extra gloss protection. Looking Good!
-
Thanks all, Clay bar ordered and AutoGlym products restocked in the garage. As for attacking my car with anything more harsh than a high quality micro fibre cloth - that's never going to happen. Elbow grease is plenty for me and my car. PS It's no showroom princess - the car gets used, a lot. Thanks again Paul

I'm looking to refresh the paintwork on my 1994 Supersport. It's BMW Estoril blue metallic, it doesn't need a respray or wrapping, just some extra TLC. Can anybody direct me to any kits, brands, material etc. Thanks
