If it is the one that I think it is without a metal cap on it it should work bit it probably does not have a filter in it. A David Brown 990 tractor fuel pump is a perfect match and is readily available. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=david+brown+990+fuel+pump&t=brave&iax=shopping&ia=shopping...

The first tools I suggest you find to tackle this problem is a small set of hands! Do you have children or grandchildren who can assist? You will also need a phillips screwdriver. Take off your glovebox and you should see a black cable, or grey cable outer housing. The OEM was grey if a...

Have you had a look on Amazon or Ebay. There are helicoil kits there for 30 to 40 pounds.

The link is from the forum was on a .com domain instead of .net. I tried changing it to .net but I got an error. It is very old, there has been a server change. Try doing a search instead and see what you find...

Are those clearance numbers in mm? Times them by 40 so we can see thou. These motors were specified in thou, and those who have the shims sort them according to thou. Number 3 looks too tight. I would take care of it, you do not want to end up with burnt valves.

Either a worn spherical bushing, or there is a busing that sits on the selector fork. What year and model car are we talking about? Harvey will know for sure what might be wrong, but will need to know the model year, as there were a few different configurations!

Was that angle drive sitting on top, or was there a thread which screwed into the gearbox? The adapters are repairable if it is the cable extension on it is broken. I have a feeling it was just sitting on top?

Your temp a gauge works so your voltage regulator is probably good. Short the wire at the fuel sender underneath the car to a good earthing point, and then look at the gauge with the ignition turned on. If it goes to full, then you have good wiring and need to pull the sender. At this stage you...

Did you live in Melbourne?

Mine does not have any thread tape or pipe dope on it. I think it is tapered pipe thread. Put two sides of a caliper and check. So thread tape is not a bad idea, or pipe dope. There is no mention of the thread type in the shop manual that I can see.

I had my distributor move in the retard direction on me once! Things started to get hot!

I run 8 degrees btdc on my 2000 Sc running 95 octane petrol.

Is this for 3500S or 2000 auto? I doubt that it makes any difference but if HarveyP6 does not come along soon I can look it up in my workshop manuals when I get home.

what you might be able to do is buy one of the reproduction labels, take it to a label printer and tell them the edits that you need, and they can then print what you are after. A photo of an original might work as well. We have the equipment where I work, but we are in the wine business not...

I think that is more like a grease, rather than a semi fluid grease. A grease gets injected through a grease fitting at high pressure. the semi fluid grease that I use dispenses from a squeeze bottle. I think the penrite product comes in a squeeze bottle, otherwise place it in hot water for an...

Are you running your fuel line about the top radiator hose or below it? If you run about the hose you will preheat your fuel as it passes by. I had trouble starting on a hot days years ago. I had just fitted a new radiator hose, and the fuel line was sitting above the hose. Then shut down for 10...

This is what I use in my leaky steering gear box Fluid Gear Grease Penrite make a similar product and specifically recommend it: Steering Box Lube Penrite Semi Fluid - Sports & Classics Millers have something similar: Steering Box Oil Millers Semi Fluid - Sports & Classics

they have 2 drain plugs so when you take your car to the grease monkey oil change chop shop and they round off one of your plugs, you can still do an oil change with the other plug. I use the spark plug socket to remove them. The one on the right hand side is my preferred plug. The one on the...

Is your temperature gauge working properly? If it is reading high then you have a gauge voltage regulator problem. Replace the voltage regulator with a solid state one.

I had a rattle once that was the metal disc that sits on top of filler for the ATF which is part of the dipstick assembly! It had come unglued from the 2" rubber tube that is part of the dipstick assembly. A bit of glue resolved this problem!

Check the condition of the heat shield underneath the carburretor. Mine split apart, it was only held together on one side. I fixed it with pop rivets. It made a rattling side. Is your car an automatic?

Speak to Colin Dray. He has the convertors to upgrade you to a 5 speed Toyota Box. Conversion Components - About Us I did my Rover 2000 a few years ago and I like having 5th gear!

If you are close to a gauge shop then you could take them the inner cable and they can make you a new one from the sample!

I have heard of people drilling a hole in the filler cap and installing a grease nipple and greasing the tube that way.
