You will probably have to pay tax. Unless you can get it sent as a present.

Janie, You can fit the battery anyway round. Infact I think it's best if the +ve terminal is at the back away from the battery clamp. This is the one o bought with Clives recommendation....very pleased with it. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330858314711?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

You can do it without taking the drive shafts out. Get it up on axle stands. but wear safty glasses, you dont want one flying off into your eye.

I had knocking and could find no play at all. so changed all the UJ's and still had knocking. So I then put in thicker cerclips and the knocking disappeared. Try fitting a G-clamp on the UJ so it moves it hard against one circlip and see if you can get a 2 thou feeler gauge in between the other circlip and the UJ. If you can then thicker cerclips may be the answer.

via the ignition. Didn't want any surprises with my head and hands in the engine bay with the ignition off. I have left the viscose on the pump and will keep the old fan in the boot. Just in case the electric one packs up.

Done it. Fitted the replacement thermostat housing which I tapped with a 3/8bsp thread. and fitted thermo switch part number ICP-EFS5270 92C - 87C . All wired via a relay with an override switch on the dash. Flushed system and replenished with Coma antifreeze. Removed the mechanical fan and started up. Temperature rose past the point where the mechanical fan used to keep the engine temperature which was halfway between 1/4 and normal. It went just past normal and the electric fan kicked in which pushed the temperature back to normal. If I operate the override switch it drops the temperature below normal. Only problem at the moment the heater has an airlock.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330858314711?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 New battery ordered from above Thursday and on my doorstep when I got home from work last night. Not bad for standard post. I'm working Sat & Sun so will fit it Monday. I have nothing against Halfords. Yes they are dearer but if you need something quick there ok. But seeing how quick this battery arrived and the price, it's Ebay for now on with batteries.

Lucky it was the side towards the wall of the garage and away from the car and me. I thought I'd dig out the Halfuds receipt thinking it it might be in the 2 year warranty. It's nearly 4 years old. how time flies.

cliftyhanger wrote:Unusual for a battery to split like that. Could have been a spark igniting the hydrogen :-/ not nice at all. But can happen to any battery. Anyway, my current (get it) battery fav is the 063 supplied by eurocarparts. Bosch 4yr. They have just put the prices up, but I got one via ebay for £40 delivered. Check the website too, they were £35 after the discount code. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330858314711?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 (just checked, £10 cheaper via ebay) Thanks Clive, Thats the one I'll go for.

Battery been on trickle charge while laid up. Went to start the Spity and it just about turned the engine. So I connected a battery booster and just got in the drivers seat when there was a bang and it caught fire. I had to quickly disconnect the terminal and take the battery out. I've washed the battery tray out as it had a load of battery acid in it. Don't know if it had a short across one of the cells ????? Last Halfuds battery I buy.

It's not just the cooling. I have never had overheating problems. But I was thinking by removing the mechanical fan it would save a little on petrol and also make the engine quieter.
-
Still not done mine yet. Thinking of tapping the thermostat housing to 3/8 bsp but need to find a switch with the right temperature range with that thread before I start. Also while I'm at it I will fit the stainless steel under manifold pipe that I have had for 4 months.

Bad idea. Not that I have rebuilt a gearbox. But I thing the principle is the same when changing sprockets and chains. Always use new sprockets with new chains.
