Sunroof needs to drop below level of roof to slide under it, sometimes a gentle tap with side off your fist will drop it from closed position, and allow you to retract it, once open is selected and handle has been turned a few mm inside car, hope that works for you always does for me on sticky Capri...

Thank you Bug, might just run after market oil pressure gauge for now, if it gonna take a lot to convert to 6.

Hi guys, how big job is it to upgrade old 2 clock dash to a 6 clock item, i know you got run oil pressure line but is rest plug and play, i have all the parts clocks dash and fittings, anyone here ever done swap, and don't worry keeping all original parts, as it mint uncut two clock dash, but car ha...

Hi Guys, factory fitted tilt/slide sunroof stuck in the tilted open position, no matter what i do can't get it to close, anyone encounter this before ?
Any ideas what's wrong or how to get it to close, Thanks., p.s was working perfectly up until few days ago,

The larger bore ones haven't been available from my usual outlets for some time now. Past Parts can properly refurbish the original ones, far better than simply sticking in a set of seals. Thanks Caprigear, may come to that down the road, for now just want try diagnose these brakes, see if i can ge...

If the pipe change doesn't sort it the ATE master cylinder for a Granada will fit. It has a slightly bigger bore but does the job and still seems available. Good to know Peter, what year, i got a 94 Granada shell just sitting had a 2.9 in it we took few years ago for something else, will take look ...

have you got it piped correctly? it looks to me like the two outlets at the front are piped to one front brake and the rear line into the other? then the rear outlet, the pipe wiggles its way across the engine bay to the other front brake? i thought both front brakes are fed off the front of the ma...

What is it doing ....or not doing ? The cylinder can be resleeved if its either worn or corroded , and you can usually see that with the eyecrometer. really poor brakes has been long time, cleaned bore looked pretty good. rebuilt all new seals, Rear bleeds fine, front passenger side bleeds fine, dr...

It looks like a ATE one for a 2.8i. They aren't available new, you'll have to have yours refurbished. Been rebuilt already, still no joy, is there no replacement, wow that is weird, so brake booster is different on ATE as well ??? and replacement 2.8 ones from capriclub are different ? i thought so...

why do you want to replace it ? Looks OK from the outside . You can get new seals for them if you just want to freshen it up a bit. Im sure there will be a tutorial vid on you tube showing how to do the job :) Rebuilt with new kit already still not working, yes looks lovely, but must be something w...

Hi guys and Girls, just needing some more help identifying this brake master cylinder please, want replace but want make sure i getting the right one, thanks. 3 brake line, 22 stamped on cylinder, https://i.postimg.cc/5yLGWnsZ/IMG-20220613-172038.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/9Q8LS6WD/IMG-20220613-172002...

A common engine swap is 1.6 to 2.0. I believe the clutch was smaller on the 1.6. yeah have done it time or two. not for a long while tho, but i always left flywheel alone on the 2 lt is 1.6 clutch that small do you know ??? and are bell housing and starter and input shaft all comparable, i honestly...

Nice, anyone on here got a GT4 or know anyone with one :? Are you talking about the bonnet and side stripes? It would be a heck of a job measuring all of those! If you mean the bootlid decal, would it be the same "Capri 1.6" or "Capri 2.0" as on other models? Andrew. No Andrew l...

As long as you don't discover you've actually been driving a 1.6 with a twin choke Webber :shock: :xd: or 1300 pinto :D :D :D :D :D no its 2lt 205 stamped block, that was main reason i got it and solid enough shell, engine runs sweet as nut, just done timing belt and service, its got electric ignit...

If it's a 23 spline friction plate and a smaller cover plate then I can get them. I think it's 190mm clutch for a 1.3 that was in it somehow, but i want to replace it with correct 215mm kit, but that will not fit on the flywheel, it must be 1300 flywheel as well, is that possible do you think ? jus...

So you're looking for a 23 spline friction plate but smaller cover plate than the standard 2 litre clutch? shouldn't be that difficult, most retailers go by parts books that have been wrong for years. You would think so right ? they both 23 spline friction plates, they both came from 2lt Pinto engi...

Hi, anyone, know of anyone making good Capri GT4 decals ???? Thanks I'm after some of those too, can't find any. I asked a couple of companies and we basically have track down the dimensions of the stickers and pass them on. Nice, anyone on here got a GT4 or know anyone with one :? thanks Tom
