  1. I wonder where you stand with insurance if you have a limited mileage policy and trackday cover?
  2. Andy, Unfortunately, that probably breaches the Blatchat Code of conduct. Ian
  3. It's either in the assembly guide or written on blatchat somewhere that with platforms you often need an extra washer to space the shock away from the tube. Its the large ones with the bevelled edge and 1/2" hole.
  4. I'd check the 'bridge' on which the steering rack sits - these are prone to bending. Also the rack fixings - these may have been nudged along.
  5. I've never heard of cut/shut inputs shafts only shortening at the end to suit particular engines Any pictures of the weld / breakage? Ian
  6. Re 1 - I sized the old washers (I only had 1 thickness) and ordered new ones from ebay. Inner diameter, outer diameter and thickness - they were a few pounds (<5) for 20. Ian
  7. Looks like it needs to be a PS2. A potential lead with Boombang. Ideally need one by early October.
  8. Not sure if you're aware, the heater valve is from a London TX2 Taxi and available new quite cheaply. Ia
  9. Nigel, Mine has a clevis pin and R clip for the clutch cable attachment to the pedal. Ian
  10. This has just popped up on ebay.... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225768574074?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=tX3lUZOpRWe&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=lIIQa3JRTlK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  11. There are companies that will copy / make proper old school enamel badges.
  12. Paul, My responses haven't been about the rubber dust cover and spring clip falling into the bellhousing, its been about why the cable fell out in the first place. If you read the extra notes pertaining to the part on the Caterham website, look at the images I've posted, they all point to the grommet being inserted into the fork keyhole to hold the cable in place. Regards Ian
  13. And assembly guide though I cannot find any reference to the rubber grommet in the text, only the diagram. The grommet effectively traps the inner cable into the fork.
  14. Paul, Yes, I believe - "clutch cable fell off the release arm" this is from the parts catalogue. Maybe something omitted / missing from yours....
  15. Tootstation stock PU adhesive albeit not the normal forum recommended brands. Screwfix have Sikaflex EBT which I 'think' is PU however the description doesnt specifically state it. I've used it for other things and it is very much like PU.
  16. The clutch fork should have a grommet in the larger hole to stop the inner cable coming adrift/displaced. https://caterhamparts.co.uk/seatbelts-harnesses/783-grommet-seatbelt-blanking-clutch-fork.html
  17. Be mindful its only suitable for strawberries and tomatoes :-)
  18. A previous club member made up a cover out of tent material before shower caps were a thing with elastic straps. IIRC he put the fabric on wrong side up, pinned the corners / fold lines and his wife ran it through the sewing machine. You could try and find a local tent repairer?
  19. As per title a working PS2 console, controller & wires etc or a 60gb PS3 (has to be this to play the PS2 games) Would consider a bundle if you have games too. GT4 / Ridge Racer would be perfect! (I sold a similar PS1/PS2 bundle 2 years ago as it sat unused gathering dust. Son has now decided he wants to go retro!)
  20. I've had a google for 155/65R14 as used on the 160 and it seems to be only tintop tyres available including the Avons and Uniroyal Rain Experts which are a firm favorite for touring. Some Kumho's are quite good - might be worth looking at the sprinting 1A / 1B list for inspiration. Hopefully a competitor will be along shortly with advice :-).
  21. What size ? Uniroyal Rainsport / Rainexpert are one of the favourites!
