There were a load sold on ebay back in 2021 without dipstick and I did a mini bulk buy (including 21Jigsaw IIRC) as they were about a fiver each. A wanted advert may yield a spare. TBH they’re only a bit of turned ally. It must really grate having a se7en badge on a 21 😂

I didnt use any lubricant when I fitted new gaitors to my rack. They’re thin rubber and stretch.

I got mine new from BG Developments - purportedly the same one is used on a We$¥fi€ld !

Personally, I wouldn’t put washing up liquid anywhere near engineered components. I can only assume GB was being facetious!

They would also be useful for anyone who has taken a cage off as the forward legs use 7/16 bolts (seatbelt size). Look like they would cover to holes in the side skin.

Just spotted on a Caterham for sale a couple of O rings on each of the bonnet springs - could be there to stop rubbing or rattling?

Have you got the AP uprated brake M/C ? That comes with a plain cap / bellows. With the normal cap, leakage can occur on trackdays / sprints etc making a mess of the paintwork!!

The throttle cable touches on some cars - any witness marks on the underside of the bonnet?

Belmont in Stoney Stanton. I’m in Broughton BTW 👍

Tyre sizes, particularly profile also affect comfort. 13s tend to have more sidewall than 15s so ride a bit softer.

Like this if anyone is wondering - car (not mine) at Curborough. You could always try Arch and see if they’ll make you one.

And googleing the caterham part number, EDP9976, it returns results of a rover part associated with the fuel filter adaptor.

Bit of research and they are listed as a part…. https://caterhamparts.co.uk/gaskets/746-o-ring-fuel-filter-adaptor-to-pipe-rover.html

I changed the fuel filter on my ‘98 K series car yesterday. I made three observations… 1) the new Bosch filter 0986 450 119 has an identical sticker on it compared to the Mann 612/2 I took off. 2) the grommet where the fuel hose passes through the boot floor metalwork had perished and partly disappeared. I replaced with a 20mm electrical open grommet, cut so I could get it around the hose then carefully poked into place with a small well used screwdriver. 3) the two metal fittings attached to the filter seemed to have tiny O rings. On this last point, I dont recall reading anything on blatchat about their replacement? What is the POBC thinking on this? All went back together OK and no leaks but if they should be changed as part of a filter swap I’d like to be prepared for next time and help others do the same! Ian
