Muppet, Sigma 125 bhp Peter

Has anyone had any experience in dealing with Minister-Power? Would appreciate any responce. Peter

Hugh Robinson, High thanks for your reply to my query, the problem with my diff is not so much rattle but quite heavy cluncking when changing up or down. If I take anyone out its usually the first thing they mention. Your reply was much like most others, that is its best left alone and I'm beginning to think thats right.But once again thanks for your response. Peter

🤔Hi Just got in and read the replies to my query and you've made me feel very wary of touching it.The fist person to suggest I could do this was Brett at Midlands although he did warn me that taking out backlash could introduce more whine. I then spoke to Chris Weston at Dartford who said they do it all the time there, but you do need to proceed with caution, doing one castellation at a time and then trying it. As we know one driveshaft is longer than the other, you need to loosen the one on the long side then do up the one on the short side the same amount, ie turn each one towards the rear of the car working from inside the boot with the floor out.

Better than playing golf all day and then having to go down the pub, oh how we retired old foggies suffer, wish I was back at work!

Hi, I've got the Sigma 125 Roadsport, being now retired and having time on my hands while the cars in bed for a few weeks, I was thinking I might have a go at polishing up the exhaust system. My question is has anyone got any idea what the best thing is to use. Would appreciate any help, thanks. Pete B Peter

Thanks lads,are they costly to have fitted and would they make much differance without other modifications? Peter

Hi, At the risk of showing my complete ignorance could someone explain what thottle bodies are, how they work and why are they so called. Appreciate any help lads, thanks. Sigma 125. *confused* *confused* Peter

Rover 1.6 new build - not starting/cranking [Update - now started]
Pete-B replied to gwiddicombe's topic in TechTalk
If the large black cable is the one I think it is, it's a earth I connected mine to the top of bell housing. If it is earth it would explain the reason for not being able to crank the engine. The wires under the dash could be for the heated screen. 🤔 -
Thanks lads.

Hi, I'm putting my battery on charge for the winter with a Accumate charger. Do I unscrew the caps on the cells or leave them closed? Thanks for any help. Peter

Hi, there mate can't seem to trace the buzzer tonight mind you its b****dy cold out there now, but I'm home tomorrow and could ring Sean at cc for you if thats any help and get any information.
-
Hi, I'm beginning to think that some of you are right, thinking back to my motor bike days it is easy to forget to cancel when there is no warning buzzer!
-
Hi Steve, Just wanted to rid of the buzzer (noise wise) and have a more visible flashing light.
-
Hi Lads, I've got a 125 Sigma own build, but not knowing the first thing about electrics, how difficult, if indeed possible, would it be to replace the indicator buzzer with a flashing light. Appreciate any advice on this!
-

-
