I ordered an Oil Cooler hose set this Monday, and received it on Wednesday. Admittedly, it's is easier to the UK. I've had many dealings with them over the past some years, and they've always been re

Please ignore my last mail. I'm confusing Specialities with Sunbeam Supreme, which is the UK supplier. Julian.

I'm pretty sure that the plastic valves are not included (at least with the original girling kit I bought), as I recall I had a chipped one and had to break another booster down to retrieve a decent

Anyone have a recommended source for a tailored cover for the Alpine (big fin I can get Covercraft here in the UK, but they are pretty expensive at $200 for just the indoor version. I'd be interested

It will not do any harm, although the brakes will be quite heavy without the servo working. The problem you have is with the plastic valves in the side of the servo sticking. If you replace these, yo

I would advocate patience. I've often found with clutches, air gets trapped in the system after bleeding. However, walking away for 24 hours has sometimes solved the problem, in that the air rises ou

It's the master cylinder. Since there is no fliud loss, the fluid is leaking past a shot hydraulic sels in the M/C, back into the reservoir. It could not be the S/C, as the only way for the fluid is

I'm not too far from London, being in West Horsley, Surrey. I never take the Alpine to London however. In fact I don't take it anywhere at the moment as the weather has been rubbish all year. Regards

I would not worry too much if the pressure on an SII drops a littel at low revs. As long as it is 20-25 PSI and runs up to 50+ PSI at revs, then it'll run for a while yet without problems. You could

You can simply bypass the servo, but if you do that only you should be prepared to build up the leg muscles some on your right side. The best alternative would be to bypass and to fit a smaller bore

It's a long shot, but another potential cause, given the engine vital signs are good could be the starter ring coming away from the flywheel. I've had this happen, and the din is frightful. On the pl

The method I use is to pump out the pistons before removing the calipers. This is done by removing the brake pads, then inserting a spacer between piston and disk (rotor) to avoid the pistons coming

You're correct. If your car is +/ve earth, then the 'hot' terminal is the -/ve. The procedure is as per your install sheet. 1. Turn on the ignition. 2. 'Flash' the live contact (using any old piece o

Check the polarity of the poles on the coil. If you've changed the car's polarity, this could have been missed. If wrong, the car will run for a while, but will burn out the points/condensor quickly.

The other possibility that occurred to was fuel. I've heard of similar trouble from people using LRP. I've avoided any such problems by using additives, instead of LRP. Regards, Julian.
