The Ford Capri Laser Page

It's marvellous to see these old planes flying over us and long may they do so but we must never forget the brave men and women who gave their lives flying them 80+ years ago to keep us all (relatively) free.

Very annoyingly my GL has started doing this again - I replaced the master cylinder about 18 months ago as it failed the MOT on it, however I am now having the exact same issue. Brake pedal goes pretty much the whole way to the floor before it actually starts doing any braking. I have checked and t...

I'm surprised the ebay swear filter didn't edit or block his ad.

recently had this with a Rover SD1 EFi - it was a blocked fuel filter.

I don't know where you are based, but as Hamish says take your cylinder head off and take it to an automotive engineering works. The old valve seats have to be machined out and the new seats are a hardened steel which frozen in liquid nitrogen then dropped into the machined out "hole". Whe...

I've never ridden a bum, nor do I intend to. Each to their own though!

Cars are only worth what someone wants to pay. There are however some fools out there who are easily parted with their money.

I wasted similar time and effort getting my Capri ready for so-called Ford Fair in 2021.

Wickes, B&Q, Homebase etc :lol: :lol: Sorry, I'm in the next county down from you so I don't really know any in Northampton. You live in County Down? Gosh, I thought you were a lot closer than that :whistle: I can't county up either. Useless fact;- Silverstone race track is listed as being in N...

The Carla on my 3.0S is a bit faded but not torn or worn so, with finances as they are, I think it will have to stay as is. However I do need some bolster work and the piping renewed and will need some of the black surround cloth on the driver's backrest in the usual place that seats first wear.
