    Right, I have a plan.
    Going to strip it all again - 3rd time! Will put sealant on all the studs where they screw into the block - any recommendations?
    Also any suggestions for the best make of head gasket. Currently have a Victor Reinz but not used it in anger yet. Do have a BGA gasket as a spare, are these any good?
    One day I’ll get this bleeding gasket sorted or is it just a dream!

  • Les Robinson17 June 2026

    Head gasket fitted. Running to temperature with coolant and noticed that there is water coming through one of the head fixing nuts!

    "All the equipment" is what is on sale so you just have to have somewhere to put it. I was curious as to how it worked and found a MG Experience advert from when the setup was in regular use:

    Years ago when on holliday in Scotland my reconditioned wishbone pan just suddenly cracked...
    Luckely it was helped at a lokal shipyard who welded it up for me so I could resume my trip.
    While on holliday my mate Matt ordered new ones from Barry King.
    Better lubrication and made stronger by welding in an extra bracket.
    As soon as I heared Barry stopped producing I bought another pa...

    Well 2 more years for Trump. If the Repub's can win JD Vance would likely take over. I wonder what he'd do if he does replace Trump.

    Before then though, I think China will prove you right Willy. They'll put Trump to the test by moving to take control of Taiwan. Meanwhile Russia is already building up forces close to other NATO countries' borders.

    Trump's talk of holding the cards...

    I have known Ashley Hinton for many years and have been privileged to be able to take people for guided tours of his factory. I doubt that he could squeeze any more machinery into the building.

    My wishbone pans & kingpins are now over twenty years old on both of my Sprites. Failures are often due to lack of servicing. The early lubrication chart says to grease at 3000ml intervals but mine p...
