I just cannot get my brake pedal to stay up, the first pump just goes to the floor board then the second pump is ok. I've expelled air from all four wheel cylinders. Also lately I've re-adjusted the master cylinder piston setting to the 3/4 inch pedal travel as required and advised by all maintenanc...

Back serious, any one knows what damage could be done? Well this car might have had thick gear oil for ages in the g-box...

simple, my friend bought a new mog and does not know which type of oil is in the gearbox. Before draining and refilling, we thought we ask the question....

What could get damaged if you use gearbox oil (say sae 80-90) instead of engine oil?

Anyone has close up photos of the weather strip edges on the convertible hoods and want to share them please?

Some people argue this is an add-on to the original hood, is this true?

Which way is to advance? clockwise or clockwise-not?

Thanks simmitc Can you do this with the electronic ignition ? (Lumenition- Magnetronic kit) and how?

My problem is the timing marks are behind radiator cannot point the strobe light to it! any ideas how this is done?

Could anyone pl explain the proceedure for timing a 1098 engine, I'm finding it impossible to see the timing marks on the timing chain cover, mine are at the bottom , is this a standard thing?

I have the Nc set on one of my cars, they are simply perfect worth the money

Rog how did u guess the year?

Could you pl post some pics of the modified travs?

Mine screws are both same size, maybe because it's a thousand or maybe some previous owner changed them, I'll try to tighten one and see what happens...thanks

Finally I found a car with a colour that matches my Maroon sample (thanking the unknown owner). Could anyone (especially from concourse) pl confirm this is the true original maroon ?

I use Wurth Rust converter, it is applied with a paint brush or sprayed and turns rust to black. It has been tried and tested on my cars for more than three years now and on my well bucket metal handle, all still rust free

I've encountered another problem with quatlites.

Since I restored my 2 door the quarter light became very loose and won't stay in the open position, the wind just close it back, any ideas how to increase friction in the pin?

Thanks lou, I acquired both maroon A & B paint samples according to the ICI references given, but they are nowhere near the colours of your car and the other car next to yours.

I shall try to get some more samples from another supplier, Congrats for the lovely colour of your car

Calling for all the owners of Maroon cars, both A and B to send in some pics. I'm really confused with the difference between these colours and would like to know which is which.

No luck with this colour! I bought two samples of maroon A (RD 08- ICI 2473) and Maroon B (RD 23- ICI 6573) and they look almost the same! both very dark maroon.

Anyone has an idea what is the reference for the colour in the pic then?
