  4. I though I bought some already diluted from Halfords, however after a closer read ( I know I need glasses) it was undiluted. Can I presume it is ok to run a engine on more or less neat coolant?

  18. Hi I have a Magneti Marelli alternator which has 3 big spade terminal in a row. The loom I have has one big female spade connector, and one small female connector. This one I know where to connect it too. To which one do I need to connect the big female spade connector? Or are they the same?. Cheers Jack
  19. Cheers batteredoldsupersport I've fitted an M8 and it seems ok. The tensioner is rather crude! I've set the tension to something similar to the dry sump belt so it should be ok. jack
  20. Hi What size should the bolt holding the alternator be? Is it UNF or metric? Jack
  21. Hello I will start my new engine soon 😬 and I just want to check a few things step 1, remove spark plug step 2, dropped a spoon full of oil in each cylinder step 3, crank engine until oil pressure step 4 fit spark plug step 5, start engine Any step I am missing ? Jack
  22. Hi I called local motor factor and it seems they don't have this magical box you speak of batteredoldsupersport. In fact, it is the same connector used for the VVC mechanism, so if someone has converter their engine to non VVC mechanism I would be interested in hearing from you. Or maybe Oilyhand has a spare... Jack
