This appears to be a network issue with the IONOS host. You will have seen the announcement that they are migrating us to a new platform, and I think that the amount of traffic that move is generating, coupled with some configuration changes to their routers, is causing the slowness problem. I am i...

Tapping the fuel pump did the trick, hoping it might continue to work ok now. Thanks very much for the input :tu1: Hopefully just stuck with standing but we'll worth taking the end cap off and cleaning points as advised by others. Removing the earth connections and giving them a clean is worthwhile...

Thanks all and sorry for the confusion.Question for Phil please.Am I correct that Bill advised the concave rubber the wrong way around.Would I be right as you advised yo say the concave side sits against the flat of the piston with the flat side of the rubber facing out for the moving arm to push a...

Well recognised Phil

IMG_20240316_121357783.jpg Hopefully the image will post. The difference between old original and new replacements is quite obvious. It's impossible to fit the spring with the longer "hook". I junior hacksaw a piece off to make them the same as the originals. No problem fitting using a pa...

Bill That is the main seal of the slave cylinder. The dust seal of the slave cylinder is much larger. See link below. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/395196380647?itmmeta=01HWJHXB2ZACMZY64D4Z2EZYR9&hash=item5c038a35e7:g:tqcAAOSwMSxfw-yI&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAABAIDWhzUbgU1dnMmsRKEcC6yPzURyL3dTxxv4Tt...

Would help if we knew what it was, I'm guessing a clutch slave cylinder? If so the indentation in the piston is for the pushrod to sit in so faces outwards. The rubber looks like dust seal and should be concave outwards.

Mine was fitted in July 2021 just before I owned it, hopefully it's one of the reliable ones. The invoice states fit genuine SU fuel pump and original pipe to carburettor I have cleaned the filter, connections and ground as routine maintenance. It did have the black tape around but I removed it when...

Thanks for the correction about the humped cover and the info for the op.
How did you identify mine is a recon pump? The documentation with the car has a garage receipt that just says replacement pump fitted. Is the aluminium tag that says electronic not SU/ Burlin original?

AKD530 Manual is available to download from Internet for free and contains a section on fitting belts to the various models in section R

If standard the pump is under the bonnet, passenger side on side of battery compartment. It has no fuse with ignition on 12v to terminal and make sure earth is ok. With ignition on give it a tap and see if it starts clicking, it has points that maybe stuck. Mine is electronic type as it says on labe...

A response today to a 22 year old post, surely a record

Have you checked you are getting full throttle, it can rev out at part throttle with no load but not when under load.
Also is tank breather clear, try with fuel cap loose

Or here is the T into original switch position, not as accessible maybe, although my vacuum advance position doesn't help but it could be repositioned.

If you use the search, lots of posts about fitting oil pressure gauge, either T at oil pressure switch or remote mount T piece.

Nearside checked, only one washer so the left hand threaded nut was tightening on end of thread but still had bearing play.with two washer fitted, same as off side, the taper bearing now adjusts normally. It was this that made it feel like parallel bearing, as fully tightened nut did not adjust the ...
