The Ford Capri Laser Page

Thanks for the heads up, that looks great !
I only had a quick look but I can't find much info on the Mk3 Capri though. Perhaps more material will be added in the future.

I'm sure that's a great "plaice" to go for fish and chips!

It's always a sad to lose a respected member of the Capri community. RIP.

I'm not sure what the lifespan of a mild steel exhaust is expected to be, but 15 to 20 years should be the norm, I would have thought. I've got the same mild steel exhaust that was on my Capri when I bought it 10 years ago. There's no sign of exterior surface corrosion. My Toyota has the original fa...

On a slightly more serious note , wouldnt they be better off not knowing🤔 It's an interesting point and I originally thought the same, but changed my feelings about it. Perhaps the police have an obligation to inform victims that they'd been violated, even if they were unaware. I suppose the photos...

There's one on Ebay if you get stuck. Maybe a bit pricey though? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/165880500770?hash=item269f3f9222:g:XbQAAOSwRbxjvvTa&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoEQKwkLfz0LIq8UL%2BwnGTid3cu2RJz%2Bk4YVBmhI2o7JmKnVprRurbQkHcleI8KRnamVW7YN5rjG5OqVuL0JxY4z75gNQNoHIAtyPV%2BLqLs%2FOkM3Fqm2Njp9dp2o...

jimmyted?

I trust you've tried CCI or Martin at Caprigear?



Andrew.

For reference, yes it does seem possible to repair (obviously not road tested yet but everything working as it should) and no it wasn't that difficult! Wish I had taken some pictures so show how easy it was in hindsight but will do that when I take the old spare stalk apart at some point in the fut...

8 years and 4 months.....
Is this a record for a thread resurrection?

It must be difficult to plan an event in show season to not clash with other shows.
I wonder if there are many Capri owners that usually attend both shows, and this year will have to decide which one to go to?
No contest for me!

Andrew.

The date for the CCI Nationals has been announced for this year and it's a few weeks later than usual, on the 21st May.
It's one of the most go-to shows for the Capri nut!
I'll be going and I hope to see some of you there.

You'll never guess what's on the front page of this month's mag. Or perhaps you will !

Happy New Year to all!

Thanks for replying, taking the sender out of the equation, shouldn't the two wires that go to the sender unit make the gauge go to the top if touched together? If so this doesn't happen when the wires are touched together. Hi Wayne, Of course, my bad. :doh: Have you checked that you are definitely...

Hi Wayne,
Although this situation can be frustrating, you've eliminated lots of possibilities, so you're definitely making good progress.
It's looking more and more likely that the sender itself is the faulty component.
