  1. All three of the major suppliers have several recommendations and I'd be happy to buy from any of them, but I don't know about that specific hose. NB Club discounts. Jonathan
  2. I can't find it in the archives or from the Caterham part number. Anything on Steve Marsh's site or forum? Otherwise talk to AP Racing or Redline? Jonathan
  3. Could it be petrol rather than exhaust?Have you got the results of a recent exhaust emissions test?Jonathan
  4. Well done. Pig of a job though eh? It seems to vary. Which gaiters did you use? Jonathan
  5. I'd be interested to know whether or not the CSR crank is. "Caterham CSR260 Build Manual": that's for the engine, not a Seven Assembly Guide. Jonathan
  6. (Crossed with Ian's) Need to do some reading on the best way to refill avoiding airlocks. Quick summary of suggested methods and tips. There's lots on each in the archives. Let us know if you can't find what you need. Jonathan
  7. I don't think anyone has yet written an article comparing LSDs (or other devices aiming for ea similar effect) from the driving seat. But there are some strongly held (o)pinions. What's the feasibility of some back to back testing, preferably blinded? Jonathan
  8. IIRC You unscrew the track rod (using the flats) from the track rod end. how do you get the thin end of the boot on ? ... a piece of tape where it first makes contact to ease the slide, warming the boot, lubricant (although I'd use silicone rather than grease or WD-40), determination... Jonathan
  9. Sorry, I'm not up to date on discounts. Always worth asking? Jonathan
  10. Full search of the archives: https://www.google.com/search?q=site:lotus7.club+silicone+oat. And thoughts about what might have kicked off the concerns. As above, that combination is what I use, and there's now a lot of Seven years of exposure accumulated between us all. Jonathan
  11. Same here. There's some discussion in the archives, I'll dig it out later. It includes one report of staining. My Seven has Comma G30 and Classic Silicone hoses, and I'd do the same again. Jonathan PS: Members are happy with all three major suppliers of silicone hoses. NB Club discounts.
  12. Works fine. Thanks Jonathan PS: Did you see the discussion of pdfs as inline images on BlatChat?
  13. That crossed with Ian's... any expert views comparing marking with counting turns? Thanks Jonathan
  14. There was a photo, but I can't find it: defeated by a combination of multiple threads and broken links, and, quite possibly, misspellings. I'll have another look. Meanwhile have you found this thread? Jonathan
  15. What would happen if a thermostat was installed the wrong way around? It wouldn't fit in the housing Does yours? Jonathan
  16. Have you got part numbers for those that don't fit, please? Thanks Jonathan
  17. The NY wire appears to go to Pin 25 of the ECU which is a 'Programmable I/O Pin'. Which ECU and engine? There's some very clever detective work in the archives... Jonathan
  18. I'd assumed that the open circle was identifying the physical layout of the connector (cf the one to its left above) rather than an electrical way. But I don't know. Could you have a look at the car and see if the connectors are different? A 'phone with a camera might be a convenient tool. Jonathan
  19. That's Green and Brown/Yellow. Brown/Yellow is usually "Alternator to "no charge" warning light". Green is usually "Accessories fused via ignition switch". So it's probably the dash end of that wire from the loom. Jonathan PS: "`Standard colours".
  20. - and by all reports neither does Chrome. Clearly Apple have implemented this (and perhaps some Linux distributions?), but these represent a small fraction of the total browser market, so no commercial website will ever use it. In case anyone's wondering how that squares with Tony's observation: Chrome and Firefox on iPad can see both. it's possibly because on iOS those (and possibly all other browsers) use WebKit. Jonathan PS: Thanks, Barry. :-)
  21. Yes. My guess appears to be wrong. I did point to your original observation, and I'm sorry if I didn't give it enough weight. Jonathan
  22. Thanks very much for doing this. Excellent quality scanning. And thanks from me, and also very impressed with the quality. I'll have a look at the wiring diagrams. (But the first K Guides had the old style diagram!) Jonathan
