It shows up as being taxed on the Government website

The MOT ran out in 2017 but as it does not need one now, that is not really relevant.

I have sent you a PM

8-32 does not mean 8 x 1/32"
It is a number 8 and is 32TPI the OD is actually 0.164"

Assuming you were not having a laugh. Hope this helps

Just a little tip to pass on really. I have just replaced the faulty speedometer on my Traveller, I had a right old job trying to find the two screws with the screwdriver to loosen it from the dashboard, I have limited access on the drivers side since fitting more gauges etc in the glove box cutout....

This is the one. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Semiconductor-Voltage-Stabilizer-for-Kit-cars/283238380387?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D56492%26meid%3D7c14ae4b36954fe0ae2101e80d296432%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D132937850239%26itm%3D283238380387&_trksid=p2047675....

The wood rails on mine have grooves along the length under the window channels from memory, this allows water to travel along and find the nearest hole.
I dont think it matters that the holes line up with the ones in the window channels.

They probably pronounce it "Rucas" in its country of origin.

The quality aint what it used to be I am afraid.

That tie bar mounting looks to be a home brew, what's the story behind that one ?

Phil

You will probably find your heater works a lot better as well

Add me to the list please.

Put a ring down the bore, and then slide a bare piston down onto it to ensure it is truly square bfore measuring the gap with feeler gauges. If you are using existing bores dont forget to try the ring at both ends. I dont have a copy in front of me but suspect you will find the desired gap in the wo...

Hello

Is this something that has only just started happening, or has it always done it ?

Phil

Sorry I cannot help you with any information, but your Traveller does look very smart indeed.
I have an identical 1969 one in the same colour.

"Not your fault, but it could have been messy!" A bit off topic I know............but a few years ago in mid summer I came out to my car parked on the drive and found that someone had "wiped" the back window with the business end of a warm pizza for some reason unknown to anyone. I don't know if any...

I used to start our single cylinder Field Marshall tractor on the handle, Phil’s Thumb advice is very important and was one of the first things my dad taught me to do.

Why not get yourself a cheap borescope, they can be had for few quid these days and send a picture via WiFi to your phone or tablet. They are ideal for looking inside any cavities such as sills, doors, chassis rails etc, and I don’t see why you could not poke it into the sump drain plug and have a l...

I think the “It’s Never The Coil” saying that we all seem to find on here, should be somehow linked to the more up to date posts where “It Is Always The Coil” It seems to be a trend lately that some components that we all suspected to fail the least, are now made so poorly that we need to revise our...
