Hi Harvey, thanks for your input. It's tough getting the mount and I am not sure if this is the right one for a BW35 1970 p6: REAR GEARBOX EXHAUST MOUNT 2000, 2200, 3500
Hopefully you can help verify it. many thanks
Just went under the car and saw the mount and it's missing at quarter of the rubber. Trying to figure out how to undo the bolt and remove the rubber. Does not look very straightforward. Any help would be great.
Hi guys...after 6 months of very happy motoring with my P6 I had to send it to WoF yesterday and it failed due to worn out gearbox mount. I have ordered on from Scott Old Rubber in OZ but wondering if I can take on this project. Firstly is it hard? And secondly where is this mount? Are there two...
Finally managed to find time to try Mike's fuel sender...after googling and youtubing...it is my old sender and I believe as you guys said it is the resistor. When I attached the replacement sender and move the float up and down, my fuel gauge reacts accordingly and quite smoothly too. So just...
Hi guys and Ron especially, after driving for more than. 300km in the city and back and cruising with all 5, 1 wife and 3kids, she's been so reliable and never skipped a beat. Engine runs well and no more idling issue too. So it was vapourisation issue after all and moving the pump on the upper...
First impression of the monroes after a few mins is that they are still as soft as the original. And to be honest my old rear shocks seem to work and have resistance as do the new Monroes. Not sure if old rear shocks can still be used? They look alot sturdier and fatter than the Monroes too.
Thx again Mike, you guys have been fantastic. Couldn't have done it without your help. I just tightened the last wheel nut. I make do without the sleeves as the new rubber bushes fit snugly and looks like they are designed not to have additional sleeves as the centre of the two rubber bushes go...
Yes mate there is and it worked. I managed to tighten it tis way enough to not allow the two parts to rotate. Just wondering how much tighter should I make it. Rubber seem to be very compressed already.
Hi Stan, both shocks are in. Mostly happy with it. However I can't say for certain how tight should I tighten both top and bottom nut. They seem to compress the rubber as I tighten and it feels quite tight but I can definitely yank them in some more. Should I or should I not compress the rubber...
I realised with the new bushings, both sleeves are not required as the bushings fit snugly to the shaft thus they don't move at the top at the rear seat nor at the bottom plate. So I think all is good. However I don't know what I did wrong as everytime I try to tighten the nuts, the shocks moves...
Thanks Mike, exactly what i need to know. OK so are you saying don't use the new rubber bushings that come with the new shocks? find a new rubber bushing that is the same diameter as the old ones? The new rubber bushing is also thicker than the old ones. Thoughts?
