Re: seat repair
You will have to make sure that the person doing it will put some tape on the seams as new stitching will create new holes, which will split even worse. I’m not sure that my machine would do it but I could try if you like. I’m in West Sussex too, near the sea!

Re: Extra rattle
Congratulations to all who said it could be a gasket or the timing chain. Pat yourselves on the back guys! The timing chain is rattling a bit and the ubiquitous oil leak visible on the drive is from its gasket! There is also a failing gasket on the inlet manifold. Of to get a duplex set and lots of ...

Re: Extra rattle
Thanks. Unfortunately due to problem eyesight - yes I am legal to drive! - I will have to get that checked. I’ve heard pinking before and I’m pretty sure it isn’t that. Will post a reply, soon. M

I’ve had a 10,000 mile service done 4 months ago, the tappets checked and adjusted and this has occurred since. I can’t see anything loose in the engine bay, and surel...

Re: Boot badge on 1955 minor

Re: Boot badge on 1955 minor
Thanks for all the suggestions. I was going to t cut the reflector to give more shine. I have reflectors on replacement lights which makes its use as a warning - redundant!
