I like your signature line, especially after I translated it with an online latin translator:

If you wish to break in pieces not he is , be unwilling this to repair

I've just spent the last couple of weekends trying to sort out exactly the same problem with my 1971 Travaller. I could have saved myself a lot of time if I'd read this thread! I started on the fuel system and I now know a lot more about SU carbs. I finally tracked the problem down to the condenser ...

Thanks for the advice everyone, a loud stereo is out of the question - the boy racers going past my window sharing their music (at least I think that's what it is) drive me nuts and I'd hate to join them. I think I'll try to put sound deadening material on my side of the bulkhead and over the transm...

Noise Reduction

I want to reduce the noise levels in my 1098 Traveller and was thinking about fitting sound absorbing material under the carpets (there's none there at the moment), on the inside of the front bulkhead and on the floor beneath the load area. Above 50 mph the engine and drive train noise make converst...

Thanks for the help on this subject. The reason for wanting to fit a klaxon horn was the same as buying my Traveller in the first place: It makes me smile!

Klaxon Horn

I'm planning to fit a klaxon horn to my 1970 Traveller, can anyone tell me if this will be legal as the only horn or do I have to fit it as an addition to the standard horn?
Apologies if this question has been covered elsewhere recently.
Thanks,
Mark

I was after the waxoyl kit that had the round tin and little bicycle pump to help inject the stuff where other products couldn't reach. As far as I can tell it's the round tins that have been withdrawn. Has anybody tried using Waxoyl with an ordinary paint sray gun run off a compressor? A friend had...

I was planning to use the Waxoyl spray kit to rust proof my Traveller. WhenI went my local shop I was informed Waxoyl had recalled all their tins and sprayers due to an unspecified fault. Does anyone know anything about this or when we can expect to see Waxoyl back on the market? The only version I ...

As another new Traveller owner I've been reading this thread with interest. Especially as my Traveller seems to have filler in several places where there should be beautiful ash. Can anyone reccomend a good book on restoring the woodwork? I have the MMOC technical manual and it mentions the 'Practic...
