    Well done Mark, a brilliant calender. Of course, one way to prevent a divorce is start talking about dual drives! (if you dare) 😬 Malcolm Edited to correct awful spelling Edited by - Englishmaninwales on 11 Jan 2006 20:08:19

    Bob Corb/ Grant Any news on ZF supply? Malcolm

    Pelico My 1400 sensor works fine in the 1800. Just use one fixing. Malcolm

    Mark I understand lightening standard cast flywheels is dangerous.......Do a search, this has been covered here before Malcolm

    Andy Thanks, but mine is for a K......I think a different length? Ian *thumbup* EFA Volvo 340......I wasn't sure if this is genuine ..or a joke 🤔 Thanks

    thanks for the replies

    Why not fit the 1600 as an EU 2, retain the 1400 ss ECU, flywheel and loom but fit higher capacity injectors? This what I did fitting my 1800. Saves ripping the wiring to bits. Do you need EU 3 for MOT emissions? No doubt somebody will be along to say why not......... 😬 Malcolm

    Dave This a fairly simple job, but as Norman states somewhat fiddly. Removal of the boot floor helps a great deal, and it shouldn't be necessary to remove the triangular panel, as the retaining bolts are U bolts. Note the upper and lower mounting blocks are different sizes. The new bushes will need plenty of washing up fluid for lubrication to fit to the ARB. Malcolm

    Paul I think that relates to Quaife units rather than ZF, unless I've missed a posting...... Malcolm

    Caterham parts closed at present, presuambly until next week.......Anybody aware whether they have overhaul kits for the propshaft U/Js? If not, alternative source? Thanks Malcolm

    Dave At least I've got an engine in my car...... Malcolm (although it hasn't any rear suspension, dedion or differential!)

    Bob Any response from ZF when/if they can supply? Malcolm

    Andy I thought EBC GS pads were horrible. Try changing pads, eg Mintex 1144, before doing anything else. Malcolm

    Mike How old are they? Malcolm

    Thanks for the replies. Ian/ Thinforth: All the rear suspension and dedion tube are on the workbench to have all bushes renewed (and diff also out to fit an LSD). Although there are no obvious signs of cracks ( it is the earlier through tube fixing for the damper which I gather lasts longer than the later type), I was interested in the feasibility/cost effectiveness in crack testing. As you say, maybe treating the tube as a 'lifed' item (now 45k miles) and simply replacing the item is simpler!! Malcolm

    Powdercoat fell off ages ago, now only painted. In my ignorance I thought NDT was X-ray testing....Thanks for the replies Malcolm
  22. Englishmaninwales
    Ian My de dion tube and ears. (the latter after seeing Dannyboy's broken dedion ear at Oulton). No visible cracks, but I wanted to make sure! Malcolm

    Anybody know of a crack testing firm in N Wales, Wirral, Cheshire area? (Metal crack testing as opposed to white powder testing 😬) Malcolm
  25. Englishmaninwales
    Shortened mine with an angle grinder......easy if in the car, just be careful of all those red hot filings and the fuel lines. Malcolm
