Perfect!

Going to give the radiator a clean out. Any idea roughly how much coolant I'll need for 50:50 water ratio?

Thanks all

Anyone know the lip measurements so I can check when the rain stops lol

It's 1986 it does look thin but I was expecting it to be wider due to the year

Is this a wide lip rocker cover?

Looking for some quarter window louvres if anyone has any for sale. Not the capri club ones though

I tried the WD40 it didn't do much. I ordered 2 new ones for about 6 quid so hopefully that will solve the problem then

Problem found its the door switches themselves. Passenger side doesn't pop out when door open and drivers side doesn't seem to trigger it but all the other checks it comes on. Thanks all

Thanks all I'll take a look this afternoon

Any idea where to start where the interior light isn't coming on when the door opens.

It works manually but has stopped turning on when the door opens.

Any idea where to get fuel pipes and filter then? I'm making a log of things to tidy up on the car to freshen it up a bit

Just starting to take a few turns to start over recently so wasn't sure if the coil might be on its way out. The leads and plugs all look recent just not the coil

Do you have an electronic ignition in that instead of points? I fitted an Aldon kit years ago and fitted a flamethrower coil at the same time https://www.amazon.co.uk/PerTronix-40611-Flame-Thrower-Volt-Coil/dp/B000N2XOYE/ref=pd_sbs_2?pd_rd_w=KeZoz&pf_rd_p=07da8879-85f6-456f-911c-215915448007&pf_rd_...

Alright I guess I'll play safe and just get the same one just wasn't sure if it was worth seeing if anyone found other ones better that would fit what I have

If it`s any help, the 2 round plugs are the original fittings, the spade connectors have been added bt a previous owner (maybe a cut-out switch shorting the coil :roll: :!: ) The voltage may be stamped on the bottom surface. edit: just saw ur post. In that case, the coil I got from Amazon will just...

Lucas. Can you see any of the text, should say 12v or 6v: ballast, non-ballast? Or check the voltage across th LT terminals?

Its a Lucas Dlb120 and I think it says use only with ballast resistor

I'll take a look at what's left of the label when I get home see if there's any info left on it lol

That's what's there now. What type is that?
