Re: Indicator Problems
Thank you.
Almost vindicated
... so either the factory OR a PDO has wired it as above , to the indicators... I knew I had great difficulty trying to wire in a " bleeper" .
Will still look for my wiring diagram for the " bleeper " fitting.
Thank you...

Re: Indicator Problems
The earlier cars , after semaphores and before self cancelling stalk used the earlier version of the wiring where the lamp on the end of the stalk ( non self cancelling ) was wired so as the curent flowed in two directions through the bulb to either right/left indicators.

Re: Indicator Problems
I have done this, but it wasn't easy as the lamp is lit by current in both directions , maybe someone has found a simpler solution ?

Re: Engine mount bolts
Do you have access to a drill and MIG/silver solder ?
If so , I'll show you the other method I've used , in this case No 5 bellhousing bolt.
You can do this to either the screw or nut ( but not both
)

I concur , the extra 2 inches I regard as a " crumple zone" , but as the only back-seat passenger I ever have is the Mother-in-law , I'm not really too bothered.

Re: Traveller 5 speed gearbox,
Yes, right in the middle of the ring magnet , " The magnet will still hold onto the steel/iron bits. " , so when one does an oil change any ferrous will be grabbed and held to the magnet , .... better than floating round in the box ? any non-ferrous will be drained .
