  • C Mee31 May 2026

    Update:

    Six months on and, after an engine re-build (new cam and valves etc.) and this time using cork sump seals, the drippage is reduced, not eliminated, but back to a tolerable level.

    I have still been running the vacuum pump. It is on an ignition controlled circuit with its own switch, so is usually only switched on once the engine is running. Occasionally I have it switched ...

    Are BGA (BG Automotive) cylinder head gaskets any good?
    Any better options.
    Thanks

    Yeah, I got there late, and the bloke was just about to lock up and shove off. I was really pissed off I'd missed the big sale. But then I spotted this box by the door, had a quick look, and asked him how much he wanted for the papers in it. Nothing he said. Free. Top bloke, he even carried the box to my car for me.

    Boy did I have a few tinnies on the money I made from those rare old pape...

    Bill--As you say, there comes a time---I had a BIG cleanout about 4 years ago when things weren't looking so good, had a giant workshop/garage cleanout sale. Kept my scope and a few small items but sold everything else, tools, benches, w/shop equip. Advertised a closing down/clearout sale on Gumtree and facebook. Must have worded it right, there were about 20 people lined up at 7am and had a st...

    When I used the term "stuff" I didn't really mean it. It's more than that, much more, isn't it. I guess it's a word I'd force myself to use when disposing of items I've invested a lot of time in, items that mean something. Ultimately you have to let go, even if only for practical reasons. With a car, you drive it for the last time, you watch it disappear down the road. I suppose it's not so ...

    Lol.

  • JS Jac30 May 2026

    Hello
    TC from 1949 and TD early from 1951 up to n°9407 have a 7 1/4" (184mm) clutch, 10 splines, 7/8" gearbox axle and not an 8" (200mm), 1" gearbox axle.
    This 7.25" clutch was very tight (110Nm) and did not take any greater torque. Which very quickly caused the switch to 8" for tds greater than 9408 (MK2?) and TF
    Therefore after a reboring, an increase in the compression ratio (made ...

    I don’t even get a response from Nigerian scammers anymore 🤣

  • anamnesis30 May 2026

    Shrinking audience/customer base Dave? Most deserted to Faceache?



  • Dave O'Neill 230 May 2026

    “Have you put an ad' in the classifieds here yet?”

    The classifieds have all but died.

    I can’t remember the last time I had a response to a classified on here. I would think it’s at least five years, possibly much longer.
