Hi, I have put a new Ford Fuel pump in my 620S because Caterham were out of stock. It should be the same, however the fuel gauge went up as miles went on until completely full. I then put in 30l and the needle is at empty. Does anybody know if this is just the polarity and whether switching the cables will resolve the issue? Thanks.

I am just running in my new 620S and of course the manual doesn’t cover the battery located in the passenger footwell. I assume it’s lithium. Any advice on how to keep it charged and with what kind of charger. A had an R300 for 12 years and had battery charging down to a fine art but assume this is a bit different?

I will measure them tonight when I get home and let you know.

£100 ono for all 4 I bought them from a racing team just to put a set of cut slicks on and take tack track days to the next level. My Cateham is now sold and I dont need them. Blue - some paint has chipped off revealing silver underneath, I never got round to respraying them because I only realy kept them as a spare set. They have ADVANS on but probably best to renew the tyres as they are quite old. Pictures available

I bought a new expansion tank cap for the hell of it as well but everything now is just dandy, it was only an airlock (I think) Thanks for all the help.

Ran out of time last night, had to go to the pub! but I had time to see that overnight the coolant level in the expansion tank had returned to normal, coolant came out of the top of the rad when I checked but no coolant at bleed tee. (No fluid on the floor). If gas was getting in, the coolant would displace but it wouldn't disappear so I have to assume there wasn't enough in there in the first place ie and airlock. Therefore I am assuming that the airlock has now moved to the highest point. I put in 1/2l more coolant (v slowly) until full, including pulling the pipes high so that the coolant filled the heater as well and then left it over night to settle down. I'll test drive over the weekend and if this doesn't solve it, I will pursue head gasket with all the info provided. Thanks.

FYI mine is factory built on a 52 plate and has always run with the temp needle inexactly the same place just above the 80 which I call 88 (long live analogue dials - not! ) I have tracked it 20 ish times, Nurburgring 5 times, Spa etc etc so I'm not too worried so long as it doesn't overheat on idle. I think the answer to this still lays in and around the thermostat?
