Re: Baffling fuel problem.
I drained the tank before I put the new filter , pump and lines in . There was A bit of very dark fuel residue in the last few drips . The old Braided fuel line had perished quite badly But thought that would be flushed taking all the old kit off. I put 5 litres back in and ran it for 20 mins on 3 o...

Baffling fuel problem.
I’m getting proper annoyed with my GLT as I need it sold and moved but there is a problem with fuelling. It’s been in storage for 4 years, I got it running no problems then the next day it wouldn’t start but turning fine. I took the line off the fuel rail , turned the ignition and no fuel. So took t...

Re: 4 years in storage , what’s the market rate?
Believe me, I have a Honda Crx vtec with some horrific rust , right through the sills to the inner sills. I’ve cut all that out and it was eye watering. And that’s not even mentioning the inner and outer arches 🤦🏻♂️. I’ll be cutting out everything and inspecting the situation on the GLT From there ...

Re: 4 years in storage , what’s the market rate?
The rust on the sills are small patches , some surface ( screwdriver didn’t get through) some with 5p size holes. It’s mainly where the moisture has got between the stone chip paint and sill rib , some had crept up. I’ve welded this up on other cars and I’m not worried about it structure wise. Just ...

Re: 4 years in storage , what’s the market rate?
It’s a G plate 64k GLT . The only rust is on the sills, doors and surface rust in the arches . I’ve been under it with a screwdriver as I’ve had the fuel pump fail on Friday. Changing that today.
There’s no rust around the windows.
I’ve got all the original parts to return it to standard.

Re: 4 years in storage , what’s the market rate?
Yeah I’m considering getting the sills done and mot’d. Had people on the Facebook group messaging me with offers over £2k but they were bragging about sticking a turbo lump in it and drifting it which I flat refuse to sell to that lot. If I sold it as is , hopefully to an enthusiast , they’d get it ...

Re: Official V3M 300 Spotted Thread.
Forgot to say last Sunday a black 360 GLT Saloon down in Cornwall, lowered wide wheels (couldn't see if they were banded steels or something else) but they were poking out from under the arches. Looked brilliant, I was going the opposite way in a red Saab 9000. That's was me, stag weekend in Newqua...

Not sure what's going on, if it's a ground cable or the alternator is playing up ? Basically when my glt starts up from cold the headlights come on very dimly even though I haven't turned them on.once the car is warmed up they're off. Also my pre amped sub crackles when the car is running but fine w...
