Hey Chris

You said you got a spare amb gauge (has it got the wiring), selling it?

How does the gearchange light gauge work, got the other type of econ gauge (not the one that says econ on it) not sure which one to have in mine.

Thanks

Jay

I've got the temp gauge, sender I think I have a few lying about, else they are on any 400 series with the info center. The gear change light plugs into the renix (have a feeling it's later versions that have it) and comes on whenever the renix thinks the revs are too high (something like 1,500

) Foggy has one set up, so can confirm!

I don't think it will work on a shelf

Well, maybe if it's on his clothes shelf it'll indicate he needs to change his gear

Haha, thats one thing that isn't on the shelf

However, whether Nessy is still seeing use since he's got the new toy, though I guess Nibbles' car still won't be working, so it must be

Yeah, I don't mind selling them, I'll nip up the loft and see if there is a sender in the box! Send me a pm with an offer.

The car doesn't have alloys. I have both kinds of radiator available, the thin and the thick type. I would want £20 for the thin type, i got it from a breakers, but the thicker type one i bought brand new and has only been on the car for a few months so £40. It cost me £80, depends what type your car has. If its a 1.7 (i seem to remember it is) i think it will be the thicker type like mine.
I started to strip the car yesterday, and have removed alot. I think i will also remove things like the calipers so there will be plenty of difficult to find stuff available.

I have stripped the car quicker than i expected so it will be gone probably within the next week. I have nowhere to store the interior so it looks like it will be scrapped with it in. If anyone does want it and can collect it they can have it for £20, but let me know asap.

Any chance of you being able to pull the engine bits I mentioned, or are you gonna drive it to the scrappy?

They mount completely differently, would need a fair bit of fabrication to get it to work imo
