Yippee! Thanks for the info Roy. For anyone thats interested it turns out that the Smiths gauge is in fact polarity conscious, I switched the terminals on the back of the gauge in desperation and it works fine and dandy. As a point of interest to anyone remotely thinking of fitting a temp and oil pr...

Connect to the same terminal as goes to the fuel gauge. You can't really measure the stabilised voltage - may see it as a pulse as the bi-metal strip makes and breaks. Roy, gave it a try this morning, the second photo shows the blue spade and the terminal I have connected it to which is a spare spa...

Thanks Roy, I shall give it another whirl in the morning, rain permitting.

I refuse to be beaten :evil: The photo shows what I believe is the 10 volts regulated connection for wiring to my temp gauge. I tried the connections and in all cases get a high reading typical I believe of an unregulated supply. Am I in the wrong place to wire the thing or is there another problem?...

I built a "cobra" once but it wasnt a cobra.I even badged it with cobra badges.It had a V8 but thats almost where the similarity ended. Of course it was the same shape as a cobra, it sounded a bit like a cobra, it was no where near as fast as a car once called "a real mad bas"$&q...

This is I suspect something plenty of people do but its a might difficult to write down. You tube is full of videos on how to do it,type in "replacing points" you should invest in a set of feelers though, as of course you will need them also to set the plugs gap one day, also fag papers an...

Somebody mentioned about events being held where most of the population is, (I believe they mean London, in which case most Londoners dont believe life exists outside of London), but that is simply untrue. What about Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Glasgow, Edinburgh? Some of the UKs most ...

Thanks for this, most useful.

It costs a lot of money to stage the National Rally & these costs have to be recouped - in previous years when the rally has been held further North (eg Scunthorpe) of further South (eg Bremore) there has been a low attendance & the rally has lost money. Rog I dont doubt the reasons for pla...

Very Good.
Triumph spitfire MK3, my first car........ "sniff" happy days.

Is there a National held In Scotland?
or equivalent?
I am an awful long way from the one based in England.

I used "fake snake" when I built one.
Mine was a pilgrim, whats yours?

They should only do that for stealing Mogs not dogs

I suppose the question is, when was it last serviced?

Minor Owner, Rock & Roll In Steel.

Hang em all on one of those spring steel belt clips from your belt, point to them when passing total strangers and say "see that......thats responsibility that is" theyll be well impressed

Are straights fitted, Would right angle/elbow nipples be any easier to get to?

I love that logo

But where is all the Jap crap now :lol: you cant even recycle rust I think all the point raised here are valid,built in obselescence however is now not an option to a manufacturer that wants to survive longer than the average. Instead, now we are bombarded with adverts attempting to convince us we ...
