Re: at the end of this thread my prop won't rattle any more!

Chillax man. I was happy with what they did at the time - they did a part-refurb and a grit blast, new seals, etc. I had to work quite hard to persuade any garage to do anything to the gearbox because all the ones I took the car to said it was fine and it was just my psychosis that was making it see...

Re: at the end of this thread my prop won't rattle any more!

Hello CBA, you've obviously got the carb so well sorted its trying to wind you up with something else. Guess engine mounts are fairly cheap and available (at least from Dai) and will help, duh, that's as much as I can suggest right now. Others will know how to tell if the rubber in the prop shaft is...

Rear nearside mudflap needed

Hello, I need a rear nearside (i.e. passenger side) mudflap, please. Cheers, bog. Duh, just found one which is probably OK - it is complete bar one of the screw-holes where the rubber has torn off but the other hole is still there so fixing it should be OK and I'm probably sorted for now, unless you...

Motorcycle evilness abounds - an awesome collection. I know someone else who 'walked into' a motorcycle one day before starting a new job (in fact, it was the owner of that Yugo in my other post!!) and he came round about 50 feet up the road... lovely bikes, but take care.

Re: randomly flickering engine light :s

OK, so you go into neutral and 'free-wheel' for a bit so tick-over will be well-low. Then brake a few times and the brake warning light starts to come on and the brake pedal goes hard?? It sounds like its not getting enough vacuum from the inlet manifold due to tick-over being slow. Also, maybe the ...

Greetings all. I have owned a couple of 340's and a 360 since 1997 with a preference for late models. I try to record my progress, or lack thereof, at this link: http://www.jbc.me.uk Here is a picture of me from 2003 when I had more hair (!) and when, being easily-led, it suddenly made sense to cosm...

Re: NSR window (5 door)(not quarterglass)31/8/1988 (SOLVED)

CBA man, evil work. I would eventually like a groovy oil filter for the 1.7 you saw. Will it fit?? I found some lirrel bulbs today and will post in the next few days to the address that you PM'd me a few days ago. Do you still need them??

Re: Breaking Volvo 340 DL 1.4 3 door Grey G Reg 1990

To: A.Finstad, I don't have anything to do with the car in this thread but it just so happens I came across 2 of the front bumper indicators while I was looking for some bulbs for CBA. I think I'd rather keep them but if it is urgent, I could post them to Norway for a few pounds...
