I thought that you'd be disappointed! :-) I'm still looking for notes on fitting ordinary poppers... but apart from the problem of getting the nose of the gun into the recess it's pretty straightforward... Jonathan
-
Was it this? Did your half-hood come with replacement studs etc for those two? Mine did. The FAQs have a diagram of the new fitting and a video. I was referring to the Soft Bits for Se7ens FAQs and video. But that was about the two studs on the hood that have to be changed, not a new stud onto the body. Jonathan

... what’s the wheel nut torque setting cause this might come in for that to. What sort of wheels and which rear axle? Have you already got an Assembly Guide and Handbook? And watch out for units of measurement. Jonathan

There's lots of great advice in the archives. And a few recurrent themes: No need to spend a lot of money.Calibration of the wrench: is it necessary?For the hub nuts either use weight x distance as above or borrow a big one: several available in the Equipment Register.Jonathan PS: I now have to have a little one for bits on the bike that can easily be overtightened. But I'm not going to carry it on the road. One step forwards...

I bought them with the kit, used them a few times, and sold them. But apparently they work better after some judicious bending. Jonathan
-
Precisely. But we're used to all of the ducks being lined up by vendors. Jonathan
-
it's amazingly regular... Yes. Is there any structure in the tyre that matches that? Jonathan
-
Thanks. The photo reminded me of something. Jonathan
-
What type of tyre is that, David? Thanks Jonathan
-
Is this a new build? Are the gearbox mount and its bolts in place? Does the left-right positioning of the gearbox at the mount look central? Jonathan
-
Thanks, Paul. Jonathan
-
Thanks Jonathan PS: Reminds me of American Hot Rod and Project Binky. :-)
-
Ah... I didn't know that you could get them that cheap. Jonathan

Paul I needed a small "spirit level" at the weekend and was playing with a newer-than-mine iPhone. I've had apps that did this before but the new built-in Measure was very neat with a digital inclinometer. How much would that simplify what you did in 2005? Thanks Jonathan PS: Measure also measures things at a distance.

Please check your email. Jonathan

Please send me a Private Message with your email address and details of the Seven: model, engine, year. Jonathan

Do you already have an Assembly Guide? Jonathan
-
Could not work out how to post Photo's There are three methods in the Forum User Guide, two to upload and one to link to an external server. Let me know if you'd like some help or want to practise. Jonathan
-
There are some sockets in the Equipment Register. Jonathan
-
That's good to hear. Great support, Steve. Jonathan -
Let us know if you need any more information on the immobiliser. Jonathan

I am basing my assumption that the battery (banner) is good on the fact that it is less than a year old and always on a conditioner when at home. I wouldn't rely on that. Check the fluid levels. A multimeter (un multímetro, picture below) would help a lot. Measure the voltage across the battery at rest, at 3,000 rpm, and minimum during cranking or attempting to. Jumping from another vehicle or another battery and seeing if it makes a difference might also add some information. Does the charge warning light come on with the ignition and go out as soon as the engine is running? Jonathan
-
Well done. What's the ground clearance under the sump, please? Jonathan
-
Park them together and the limerick would write itself! ;-) Jonathan
-
Is it like this? That's a Vecta Shadow Control System, discussed here. Jonathan
