I found that removal and disassembly was difficult. I had a spare set for which the black leather was completely shot. For the sake of 'education' I gave it a whirl to see if I could remove the covers, with the intention of repair. A multitude of retaining hoops and clips. Then I found that the...

Now tipped

Hi all. I do not expect may, if any responses for this item but I am under a lot of pressure to create space. I have full set of Black Cloth( more likely Blue/Black) Intact and complete other than one small hole in drivers seat. Sadly they are also 'crumbly'. Please PM if any use otherwise...

Brilliant! Thanks all

Thanks for that Grim. I shall try it on Monday as I am off to a show tomorrow. I take it that it is a bundle of laughs putting that nut back on again. Time is on my side :shock:

Coming home with a brand new MOT on the passenger seat last week, I encountered traffic holdup on the Runcorn bridge near to where I live. Suddenly traffic bunches up and I was forced into an emergency stop.It stopped as it should :D . But only later did I realise I was losing my brakes. By the...

Disappointed to find that this months copy of Practical Clasics had a big write-up of the show, but no mention of P6 Club stand. Perhaps they have had their quota through the Mexico Brown TC

Me too!

I am slowly restoring my 2000SC Tobacco leaf car. It most certainly will not be ready any time soon but I would suggest sticking with Tobacco Leaf. My car had ' of the several shades of this colour and I have always thought of it as the 'ugly duckling ' of the range. But I have now changed my...

Up till now I have been an interested observer in this thread until deadsrar produced a photograph of his steering box anf harveyp6 clarified the oil top up nut. I remember a post concerning my steering damper problems and decided to check today, only to find it empty. Now filled. Thank you...

I would get on the net-Ebay in my case. My 2000Sc needed a new battery in July and having reently put swapped a 2year from the SC to my TC which is needed for shows.. I was quoted £70 from my local spares shop. Unfortunately(for them) I have the reciept for the one just swapped to my TC for £40...

I know its a daft one but I remember going through all this when I first got my SC.The temp guauge did not work and I was afraid of it overheating and worse. I went for wrong sensor and bought a new one-did not work, a second hand strip speedo( which you are welcome to) and a new themostat...

Thanks for your replies Dave and Richard. It may be that the engine has been rebuilt but it is little noisy and a bit 'spitty' and does not burn oil or rattle. I was advised some time ago that these engines, when worn, have a tendency to record low pressure and a favourite 'bodge' was to either...

} I have the opposite problem to you, as stated in earlier posts. I have too much pressure! I have bought a pack of springs and a replacement plunger without success. I have checked the oil line filter near the timing chain cover with similar result. I have not yet checked the pressure guage...

I agree completely with Pilkie view of the two clubs. I am a lapsed member of P6ROC. Lapsed in despair at events leading to the loss of forum and joined P6DC. I continue to be a member only because of Insurance 'club discount' and am a regular reader of the forum. Pilkies comarisons are spot on...

I use AA recovery and used twice for my 2000SC(clutch master and then slave!) Came back on a AA recovery truck first time and then escorted by AA patrol. I do it on the back of my 'modern' cars and whilst expensive I have found it a godsend, particularly with the other half and dog less than...

I would call on your views concerning the oil pressure of my 2.2TC. Unlike many, I have read on these forums which usually concern low oil pressure ,my problem is the reverse. For some months I have been trying to track down and rectify my TC's 'over' pressure. At start up the guage builds up to...

Done

Thanks falconho. Your post has summarised my problem and pic. JRW next

Thanks to Quattro & Twin Plenum . I have found them, as suggested on JRW. Quote TwinPlenum [If you mean the channeling that holds the rubber around the door, then the long straight strips are available. The curves are not. SHame really.] How long is that? Ideally I would need around the wheel...

I am currently renovating the off side sill of my Tobacco Leaf '71 SC. All has been going reasonably well until I got to the D post area. Definitley a 'prod too far' and revealed filler and alumininium in the rear arch! Hey Ho. I have been able to fabricatre internal and external patch to my D...

You are likely right Dave.The engine does not rattle or overheat,though. Nor does it burn oil .Someone has changed this for reason,though. But even if it is rebuilt I still need a spring. If I can source one with a little help from anyone who has one .... Thanks

I have had my 2200 engined 2000TC for just over 2 years. It has (I thought) very good oil pressure as the reading goes to the far right(over 60psi) and stays there until switched off. It also loses oil .I have been looking at the dreaded 'O' ring until it was pointed out to me that the pressure...
