On my 21, K serie dry sump, after a oil change or a after the winter break, I poured a little amount of oil in the cylinder via the plug hole. Crank the engine until i see oil pressure, fit the spark plugs and start the engine. The oil burns making a nice white smoke which disappear very quickly Jack

hello I have tried to rotate the WASP to have the solenoid under the body but it didn't work Would you still have the Brise adapter plate gathering dust in your garage? I would like to move the solenoid as far away as possible from the primaries. Cheers Jack

Hello Mechanical Moz Do you know if the adapter plate for the Brise would enable the coil to be fitted underneath the motor part of the starter? Jack

I am looking to update this part of the wiring of car also and I have been looking at "welding cable" which is design for high current application and is flexible. the one I am looking at is 35mmsq which is rated at 220A which should be enough for the starter motor. It seems also to be more cost effective... Jack

Hi All My old starter motor is dead after nearly 20 years of being cooked by the exhaust it is not bad going. I have researched the subject and it seems there is three main possibilities: The Powerlite RAC430 The WASP LMS430 Brise C890510PGR Cost varies between £150 to £215 for the Brise. They all look very similar, with multi hole flanges etc. Thye question is which one is best? Jack

Dave removed the lump when my engine was being tinkered with. I'm going to order the bits from Dave and do it. Jack

Called DVA and he is very busy, so I will get the bits from him and do it at home. Jack

Hi I watch this video which is quite good Ash do you mean this tool? https://www.eliseparts.com/products/show/66/1885/k-series-flywheel-locking-tool/ I couldn't find the bits on DVA's web site Jack

Hello I've seen the video where the engine is on a bench and the video about cutting the cam belt length ways and fit a new one. On the video, the chaps removes the crank pulley, is that necessary on a Caterham? What is the best way to lock the engine? If it is left in-gear is that ok? And lastly which kit to buy and where? Cheers Jack

Hi All I need some help in fixing the electrical issues I have with my 21. Can someone recommend a local company to Abingdon which could mend and or repair the loom of my car? Cheers Jack

Hello All I would like to learn on how to change the cam belts on my VVC engine. Is there a guide somewhere? Could i watch someone doing it on my car if i provide beer / pizza / chocolate cake? Cheers Jack

You could add a resistor in series, with the bulb. I did that a while back and it was successful. Jack

Andrew There was a website which gave a lot of maps and dyno plot. The name of that website elapses me ( too much beer*beer* maybe). Maybe google can help? Jack

Thank you for your kinf offer, but we are driving down for a week skiing about the same time as you*yes* Maybe see you there*byebye* It seems sad to have to spend this kind of money for something which is going to gather dust in the corner of the garage Jack
