Hi all, hope someone can help. I'm rebuilding the fuel pump on my 72 2000. In the Haynes manual its saying there should be a retaining clip that I remove to release the inlet and outlet valve. However on mine I can't see one. Any advice on how I remove and replace these. Is it a case of trying...

Second Sunday of every month: Queen Square Bristol Breakfast Club I was recently told about this meet-up so decided to go and take a peek yesterday. Unfortunately I had been on a brewery tour on Saturday so was a little delicate to say the least but I figured that a good lungful of full fat...

Thanks Graeme, The colour is actually City Grey which I don't think's right for the year, but hey I was never going for a purist restoration. :)

Hi All, So way back in 2011 I became the proud owner of AWH, full of enthusiasm and hope, I began what I thought would be the quick job of getting it back on the road. Well 5 years on and progress has been slow and after other projects, a career change, time overseas and then moving 200 miles...

Hi all, After laying in bits for a long time it's to put the ol P6 back together again. The problem I'm having is with the drivers side indicator / side light, when I turn the side lights on nothing happens but when I indicate right the side light flashes with the indicator. There is a really...

Thanks guys, The wire was connected to the outside of the cap. I've just managed to get her running for a few seconds (sounded very rough) then it died and I've drained the battery so thats now on charge. I'm wondering if its sucked some crud up from the tank. I was just worried about the...

Hi, I ran out of fuel the other day and after I re-filled the car it still would'nt start, then after inspection I noticed that the wire had come off the distributor. Has this now killed the timing and if so does anyone have an idiots guide to re-setting it as I've just looked at the trusty...

It was that retaining clip!!! I must have expanded the de-dion tube too far at some point! For my foolishness the lords of the internal combustion engine unleashed an almighty storm upon me which resulted in me having to work under canvas and in the mud for the rest of the day. I have however...

Thanks for the speedy response guys. I've tried the above including the ratchet strap but it appears the de-dion tube is catching on something so I fear I may have messed up when putting it back together. It slides freely but then stops dead with a clunk! Its been a while since I had it appart...

Hi all, I've recently removed and refurbed the De-dion tube and driveshafts but now I've tried to refit it all and although I've got the elbows back in the lower trailing arms and the passanger side driveshaft reconnected the drivers side driveshaft is about two inches out is there a knack to...

Hi folks, JRW are out of stock at the moment, does anyone know where else I can get replacement Seal retainer channels for the door seals?. Cheers, Rich

:lol: Thanks for that I'd never noticed, after stripping off the luggage rack and all the badges I always thought it looked slightly odd but couldn't put my finger on it,I think I might keep em. I'd have liked to keep the exhaust as well but its well shot.

Hi Dave, Thanks for the welcome. You didn't buy you P6 from The Spinning Wheel by any chance did you? Mine is tax exempt and is a series 2, the strip on the bonnet appears to be a side strip that was held on by two screws and a bent nail!! There was also a luggage rack on the back but that and...

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone :D

Hi all, My name is Rich from Chesterfield, Derbyshire. I've had a few modern Rovers and been member of MG-Rover.org for years so know how much help (and fun) these forums can be. Towards the end of last year I finally bagged me a P6. AWH 491L didn't look too bad and blasted the 80 miles home...
