Job done, many thanks to Phil and Vern, very good information.

Thank you. I'll give that a go.

The rear o/s door on one of my cars has suddenly stopped opening. The button stays in when pressed. It opens fine from inside. I've sprayed WD40 on it ,to no avail. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thank you. I have ordered a David Brown pump. £26, post free, must be best price available. Should arrive mid week. Thanks again.

The glass bowl fuel pump on my 2200TC is leaking. I have a TFP 971244 AC pump. Can I use that to replace it or do I need to source a glass bowl one.? Or is the V8 pump interchangeable. Alternately should I go for Electric?

Electronic ignition. Works every time. My 2200sc was a pig to start, very often 10 minutes to fire up properly. Now I can leave it outside for six weeks without looking at it and it fires up in 10 seconds. A good cheap fix.

I made my own hooks and threaded them M6. Works perfectly.

Thanks Colin, that's exactly what I wanted to know, much appreciated.

My battery box is lacking the bolts/hooks that hold the lid in place. I want to make some, so can anyone tell me the correct length of each bolt and what thread to use. Thank you.

Thank you. I have only recently purchased this car at auction. The previous owner said all pads had been recently changed I will investigate.

Thank you. Will investigate.

Silly question. Why does the dashboard brake light flash on and off quite frequently?. The brakes work perfectly, will stop on a tanner dead straight no squeals. The fluid level is up to the mark with no leaks. Even sitting at traffic lights in gear, handbrake off the red light flashes. Raise...

Only fit for scrap.

I purchased new front calipers and pads from MEV about a month ago and they are very good.

Sorry I misunderstood. I think your problem might be a bit more complicated than mine was, so will probably cost more. Best of luck.
