I definitely have water getting into no.4 bore. In the article provided by Jonathan it mentions the seal going on the inlet manifold and letting coolant into the cylinders. In the past couple of weeks before I started the car I noticed coolant droplets on the bottom of the sump and on the off side engine mounting bracket. I could not find the source but possibly from the inlet manifold.

Thanks, I'll take look

Started the 7 today after 6 month's hibernation, thought it was a bit smokey but put it down to the new exhaust. When it didn't clear I noticed coolant dripping from the exhaust collector. And a lack of coolant in the header tank. Not what I was expecting, just supposed to be preflight checks before taxing next week. I have asked Redline for a list of parts required and will get on with changing it next weekend. Any hints and tips required for changing a K Series head gasket would be appreciated. Thanks Julian

Thanks both for the quick responses, the key bit of information was knowing it was a Econoseal plug. Thanks again Julian

Hi, Does any one have the details of the tool to remove the pins from the loom plug where the side repeaters join the loom at the front of the car. Car is a 2005 K Series. Thanks Julian

Wanted 50th Anniversary nose badge if anyone has one lurking in the garage. Thanks Julian

Thanks Adam, looks like I am in the same boat. Julian

Hi, who did you use to supply a new exhaust? I am not getting much response from those I've tried. Thanks Julian

I want to upgrade my current standard single pipe exhaust system to a long primary 4-2-1 or 4-1 system, to allow for future tuning. I am looking for a R3/4/500, SLR, Powerspeed, EBD, Simpson etc. Preferably with a cat as the car is 2005, but happy to consider exhausts without. Please let me know if you have anything tucked away. Thanks Julian

Thanks to everyone for the information, coloured wiring diagrams and solution. The solution was to installed a 10w 39ohm resister in parallel with the LED in the Rev counter. The LED now works correctly, on when the ignition is on and off when the engine is running. Thanks again Julian

Thanks for all the feedback and information. I have come to the conclusion that the issue is one of compatibility between the Alternator and the LED in the Rev counter, this is where I will focus my attention over the next couple of evenings, I will let you know how I get on. Thanks again Julian

Jonathan, I have checked the connection several times and ensured it is pushed fully home. If you unplug it the ignition light goes out so it is making contact. The new alternator is the same as the one that I removed, I haven't got the part no but a Alternator for a EU3 K Series 85W. The terminal layout is 2 pins in an elongated D shaped plug. It is a EU3 K Series so presume the ECU is the same. I do have a wiring diagram but it is not particularly clear so if you have a clear copy that would be great. The ignition light is an LED inside the rev counter. Thanks for your help

Over the weekend I had an issue with the alternator, ignition light came on whilst driving and when I stopped for petrol the car wouldn’t start. Got a bump start from a guy in the petrol station. Drove home checked the battery and only 9v across the terminals.The ignition light would not come on with engine running or not running. Ordered new alternator and fitted tonight. Ignition light comes on with the ignition on and engine not running - all ok. Battery is being charged at 14v but the ignition light does not go out when engine is running and when rev’d. Is it a faulty alternator or is there something else to check? 2005 K Series.
