Why don't you locate some K11 steel wheels the toddle down to the local company who will powder coat them, there is a disabled company who will do the for a donation and they do a damn good job I got mine done last week for £20 Remploy is the company name don't know if they're national. The...

Going to check it tomorrow now the engine is running sort of satisfactory. I know front brakes are ok just the rears suck

Are you sure you have the correct brakes ? According to halfords this morning there are two types both different measurements ? Halfords here don't know much so they could be wrong

That's great thanks. I'm guessing the black and red wire I have on the existing Earth terminal goes on the new earth terminal. Just got to get a broken dissy cap stud out now I have the Haynes and will check too just too.

If you need to drive at 10 mph on a motor way you need to be banned for life as it's obvious that you aren't capable of driving. At least it wasn't one of those electric buggies

My K10 has been a pig since I got it. 1st the head gasket blew in a major way boiled dry 2nd the carb gasket gave 3rd the carb gave up 4th the car quit on the way to lowestoft for no reason 5th the Timing belt jumped 20 degrees out That's why I called it a pig oh this is in the last...

It's running just Tappety noises well more of a clattery like the engine has no oil. I'm thinking the alternator wheel is loose

That's what I'm going to do. That VW you posted there was one running around Norwich a few years ago the owner ran a shop here. Over the weekend it's being checked over for it's MoT I know rear brakes are rubbish as the handbrake doesn't work at all it goes on but the car will still move so...

ewwwww no. Ill speak to the Paint shop down the road to see. If the car passes it's MoT then ill think about it

Hopefully. As I need to send the pig in for it's MoT soon, that's going to be horrid

That would look nice ? not!!! as would the Dulux. Might have to get the gas axe out *girls favorite tool* cut each panel off take them to the shop individually then the car would look real nice. Seriously if it's between 600- 1000 then the paint may wait a touch although I love some of the...

Wow that much? the car isn't worth that much. I was expecting 300-500 ish.

I think I was very lucky, I've only ran it long enough to do 1/4 mile not at speed though just through the city. It is making a little bit of tappety noise sounding like something may be loose. Now that the belt is timed correctly the valves will need checking, also may be a little bit of damage...

What can I expect to pay for a complete respray on my K10 ? I don't want anything fancy, ie that colour changing paint although it does look nice, just a standard metalic colour.

sounds good, send me an email please [email protected] Do you by anychance know how to fit this electronic distributor to my point engine I have a spare wire and don't know where to put it, the Haynes shows it going no where or doubling up. Hissyfizzy

Before you all fall over in laughter please read on I have a LPG kit sitting in my shed doing absolutly nothing it came off a Carb Range Rover and I'm thinking instead of letting it rot why not fit it to my K10 (When i've finished rebuilding the engine) Anyone know realistically if the K10...

I've been sent an early Electronic Distributor to replace my defunt points based one. I've read through some posts have said that these distributors will direct fit, one question mine has one wire and earth socket the electronic one has two wires plus earth socket, Haynes manual shows, or...

Thanks i knew I'd see it somewhere on the forum. Search always goes mad on me it brings up more than one Ed do you have an address to send the camshaft ?

What would the cost be of a reprofiled Cam using my existing one? Primarily I want the valves to stay open longer 257 to around 260 degrees. Will I need to uprate the valve springs and Valves as with the Range Rover cams Hissyfizzy

I've now got to say that the MA10 engine is a tough little engine. The one I've got has boiled over, timing been out by over 20 degrees, Cam shaft wheel came off and still the engine is running. Why can't other engines be as tough
