Re: no starting
I Agree with the other comments.It's no good changing everything and hoping you've hit the spot.if the engine ran for a short time then it probably was'nt an ignition problem.so start looking at the fuel system.i.e.sticking needle valve in the float chamber e.t.c

Rear Door Window Replacement
Hi.All.Does anyone know how to replace the glass in the rear door(passenger).I have taken the glass out to fix the winder mechanism and replaced the window sealing strips but the glass will not feed in from the top(top channel removed)due to the width of the window winder runner.Cheers.

Re: Centre Crossmember
Hi.All Thanks for all the replys.the mot is not up untill September.but as i was under the car changing the clutch/gearbox i noticed that the crossmember was corroded just were the torsion bar is mounted to the crossmember. i am sure i can get away with just getting an end section fitted.
