The Ford Capri Laser Page

Nice one Nick. I put these in the 2.0 some years ago now https://i.postimg.cc/NGCQPhyk/DSC-1136.jpg Thanks Peter. Well pleased with the ones I bought mate. I really like those ones you fitted. Not seen these before. Lovely chrome work. Are these "Capri" handles or from other classic ford....

It's actually extremely offensive to National Socialists all this. Poor old Uncle Adolf would be mortified to see those symbols of the patriarchy flying around. #stopnazishaming It's actually extremely offensive to National Socialists all this.

Very nice. Hope to see them in Ireland next month

Jason, what gives?
Capri on a recovery truck?
Obviously not the engine as it is the best engine in the world

Nice one Nick.

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...

Hi all, Hope somone can help with noise coming from my 1986 2.8i. I know noises are difficult to diagnose without actually hearing bur here goes. Metalic clanking type noise coming from the engine. Started after winter hibernation and getting worse. Engine starts and runs and idles perfectly. At lo...

Yes was a runner, started spot on Have checked wur, have spark Did mesh with mixture I know I shouldn't have Thought low on fuel so drained it and fresh ib When the engine is properly cold disconnect the 7th injector at the plenum end, pop it in a jar and crank the engine. Fuel should come through ...

Can someone tell me what order to check different parts Car wouldn't start, changed a few bits still no good, tries to fire Changed fuel and filter Tia 2.8 Previously a runner? If its trying to start then presumably there is a spark and some fuel getting through. If it has not been used in a while ...

Price doesn't sound too bad to me but it has clearly had some paint work - no surprise on a car that age but it depends how well anything has been done. I would suggest there could be some filler at the bottom of the near side wing where it joins the sill, where the valance meets the wings and aroun...

I have a bit of a problem! The dates clash with my mothers birthday and my stepfather has (seemingly unbeknown to anyone!) arranged a surprise family gathering in Northumberland (good job we hadn’t booked a holiday abroad!). Let me know if you’re out of pocket as a result of my late withdrawal and ...

Just a few POINTS I wanted to CONDENSE into my thread

I do try to distribute my jokes at the right timing so as not to leave people with a dizzy brain

Time for a fresh spark

It's what I fitted probably close on 10 years ago. Haven't had to touch it since

Very nice. I'm sure I saw a picture on Instagram earlier. The clouds and damp surface worked well in the end

Major_Tom wrote: ↑Mon May 15, 2023 11:22 am ..long story short, I'm going back to the olde ways.

Who supplies decent points and condensers these days?

I have some new points still in their blister pack if you are interested Tom

That will be because it's the best engine in the world. So I've heard anyway

Great stuff Tom. Most of the old airfields I have been to have scant remains now but then many ceased operations in the late 1940s.

Fire blanket ? No it's a hermetically sealed cylinder (or it was till someone put a hole in it) and the hole in its base isn't deep enough to hold s blanket. And the entire thing is well over engineered for that! Can't help feeling it must be some sort of fire protection device. A windowless room w...

'old faded plastic' - is that the mother-in law again

I watched the first episode it was ok.

That was exactly what I said about it when the wife asked if I had seen it.
OK sums it up.
