Oli depending on how conversations go with other respondants - I'd be up for a swap, however I'm not sure how to distinguish if it's the right tonneau as I don't know how old the tonneau is? Rog
-
I've created an album on mylotussevenclub the numbers against each picture are the sprint entry number - for those pictures for which the number was not visible, I used reg / car description For some reason the pics don't fill the full view screen - the actual shots are all 3500x2300 shots so look better in real life - if anyone wants a copy just blatmail me Rog Edited by - rogneedham on 17 May 2012 22:14:25 Edited by - rogneedham on 17 May 2012 22:15:09

thx Ian - found the number. Didn't need a new injector in the end for reasons I'm not prepared to divulge on a public forum 😬 *redface* *redface*
-
was looking for wrong format of Part number. *redface*The OEM number (Bosch) is 0280 155 868
-
have checked the CC website and found following part numbers: MJY100850, MJY100640, MJY100430 & PR6543 none of these seem to resemble the buff,creak coloured injectors fitted to my roller barrel SLR/R400. I cannot see any obvious part number with them still in situ pls can anyone confirm correct part number thx Rog
-
thx Dave - is de-pressurising just a case of removing fuel pipe from bulkhead end of the rail, and / or fuse out?
-
thx Paul I had considered that option but was advised earlier that removing the injector is a fiddle as there are some O rings that could become dislodged / fall into the wrong place...
-
...just started again but engine still 'lumpy'. Removed number 3 plug again and still shiny. I'm more convinced it's an injector problem 😔
-
all plugs out and a spark is being produced by all four. I've moved the earth strap at the brake union from the top of the thread to the base of the thread next to the chassis box section. Done compression tests: 1 with closed throttle (1st set) and one with throttle open (2nd set); details as follows. all readings in bar. Cylinder 1 2 3 4 10.5 11.5 11.0 11.5 16.0 16.5 17.0 17.0 Rog

thx Angus - will double check spark on other plugs but thought that as there are signs of combustion this would mean cylinders 1,2 & 4 were ok. I have had the car running periodically over the past week or so. Yesterday it ran for c.20 mins. Once warmed through it idled ok but bringing revs up through c.2k rpm there was a vibration through the car and a roughness to the engine. I've checked the main earth on the engine mounting to alternator housing. The earth on the 3 way brake pipe union is ok. Am I missing one anywhere else? Rog
-
thx Dave - have gone back to basics and taken all plugs out. Number 3 plug is still 'out of the box' shiny. The other 3 have blackened with combustion. Have removed this plug and checked for spark and all ok. Have disconnected fuel pipe on the rail and fuel is pumping through ok. wondering now if I have an injector problem. Rog
-
thx Paul 😬yes definitely fuel - 20 litres put in 7 days ago fuel pump seems to operate fine. Will double-check ECU connections though Rog
-
had the car running for c.15 mins yesterday evening. Then had coolant related issues so switched engine off and followed various threads advice to resolve. Gone to try and start car again this morning and after c.20 attempts trying to catch on the throttle no joy. I've checked all the sensors and refitted. Brand new plugs (none loose) and leads. Having had an engine rebuilt the MBE was left untouched on the car and settings have not changed since car was withe The 2 Steve's in Feb 2010. Putting it in non-technical language it seems as though the ECU is picking up wrong signals somewhere. Short of taking the car to The 2 Steves - does anyone else have the software/hardware/ know how 'up north' or in the Midlands? Rog
-
ok - all sorted...so car now starts 😬 - the previous owner had created a extra length of wire for the rev counter on the Stack. Once I by passed this spark returned and engine fired ......no oil pressure though. Looks as though the pump is knackered. off to create a separate thread 😔 thanks for feedback guys
-
thx Giles - tried that and still not firing ☹️ spins over ok but no sign of it firing up
-
engine back in ready to crank for pressure and start just had a rebuild by DVA 😬. In the past 6 hrs have checked the following: engine getting fuel no spark when cranking coil has c.9V when cranking new distributor cap as I found the centre brush was broken the MBE & MFRU and all wiring were not removed from car battery reading 11V when cranking anyone any ideas ? have decided to sit in the sun for 30mins before I do anything daft thanks Rog
-
this is the one that fits into the lower mount on the alternator then through the adjustment arm. The head of the bolt fits into the hex shaped hole in the alternator is it M10Xc.80mm?
-
looking for something that hasn't been used too much. So my 'racing snake' figure for all to read chest: 44, waist 40, height 6ft ...weight 14.5stone so.... any racing walruses out there 😬 pls BM me Rog
-
I know it may be a bit of a trek - but when I had an Xflow engined car - I took it to Northampton Motorsports (Troy). They did a great job and since then they have had the pleasure of fettling Mr N.Mason's Ferrari 250GTO their details are in LF most months Rog

thx Rich

thx Rich
-
thanks DJ/Rich I already have the small blanking plate - can't remember how I came by it DJ- I work within 1 mile of CCM so can pop in and pick up the large cap - but thanks for the offer Rich - glad to see your faith in my abilities is steadily improving 😬 Do I remove the large plate first and push spindle out? - any tips you can recall? Rog
-
please see pics here does the spindle need removing - or can it be covered up? Is blanking plate on other side ok? Rog
-
the pics in the link show both sides of the gearbox speedo drive. As I have a Stack this drive is redundant. ref the pic with the 'nub' of the drive still protruding...what do I need to blank this off Is there a cap? or does this spindle come out? assume the blanking cap on other side is ok? here thanks Rog
