Thanks guys Cheers John

BELGOM ALU is brilliant! Get it on Ebay. Flows really well and give a really good shine. I find WD40 is good for removing the black stuff before final polishing. Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

Hi, I know it's not the correct subject, but I'm trying to find where Steve C got the Miss England sticker from on his 7 nose. Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

Anyone bought a 7 club grey hooded fleece in large that they want to sell. The club has sold out. Cheers John Edited by - johnjulie on 17 Dec 2009 00:09:52

Gearbox shaft to crankshaft spigot bearing, clutch release bearing, check flywheel starter ring teeth for wear. Check timing chain tensioner, Check for play in water pump. Remove head studs, clean and retap all threads in head (UNC). Also check engine threads, ie alternator adjusting bracket bolt hole, (quite often strips!). Thoroughly clean and repaint engine. Good Fun! Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It) Edited by - johnjulie on 7 Dec 2009 03:08:34

Your's is the Ital one, as already stated, it comes supplied with a bleed nipple in case you need it. The pipe and nipple fittuing is the same. Cheers John' JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

I had pretty much the same problem, are you sure the brass bit is touching the lead bit on the bulb? I found that the bulb wasn't going in far enough to get a good contact on one of the bulbs. I ended up putting a bit of extra solder on the end. If you are getting the earth and volts, it must be a bad connection. Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

Have you seen these? https://www.caterhamparts.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=4267&osCsid=070cae90bfd82d84b61caca89491a251 Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

I think you'll find the twist knot and standard wire brushes much more effective, the fillament wheels work, but are not very abrasive, and tend to be a little slow compare with a wire brush. The fillament brushes are more for cleaning and as a gentle abrasive, for removing paint etc without damaging the material. The chassis tubes are quite substantial and can withstand a high speed wire brush with no problems. Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

Don't want to put a dampner on your ideas, but if you don't know much about the tools you mention, I wouldn't advise attempting to build a blueprint engine. I'd leave it to the experts. One mistake could cost a fortune. If you don't have knowledge of the required tools you will be struggling. Plus I can't imagine you will have the required machinery to do any machine work. Surely the person doing the machining will have all the tools necessary to supply the tollerances required. I'm not quite sure what you will be doing that needs tools of such accuracy. Back to the question, as Roger already states, you get what you pay for. Mitutoyo are excellent, and can readily be found on Ebay. Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

Hi, just wanted feedback from people who have used Poly bushes instead of standard rubber. Did you notice any difference? Do they last longer? Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

Or you could try Speedy Cables Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

And if it's a live axle, the Haynes Ital w/manual will be useful for the back axle. Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

Or you could invest in one of these: http://www.carcoon.com/ Cheers John JFDI (Just F*****g Do It)

It may be a Ford Fiesta MK 1 item Cheers John
