My pads were used but looking good last year so... I've made +- 15000 miles since.

mmh... sounds like i'll go for another rebuild?!

Found that my 2200tc has a good oil pressure (around 65/70) when idling and over 4000rpm. As it goes over 4000rpm, the pressure drops to 55, even 50... Worn oil pump? Wrong motor oil? or maybe usual?

Hi there! Just spent the day to replace my rear brake pads (Girling calipers)... and found that the rear left wheel was almost not braking! the rear right a little bit more... and almost no handbrake on both. Checked that everything is ok, pads moving freely, good hoses, pushrods spinning free...

Hi there! Has anyone an exhaust manifild in good condition?

no rubbing problem for me, and i have 205/60x15 tires... Maybe are there different offsets?

i have taken the head off this morning. The head and the block were ok... But the gasket was looking as if it was just "out from the box". I found my bolts were a bit long... And my gasket still looking like made of some bad exhaust gasket material. Moreover, some "rust" has appeared on its...

Hello! Amazing problem on my 2200tc: on some cold starts it was running on 3 cylinders with an horrible noise... So i removed the camshaft and realized that an exhaust tappet was lower than the others. So after the head removal... A valve seat was out, between the head and the valve. So i took...
