ok Clive when your ready just pm me

Many thanks Wendy

Help guys can any body tell me what car this came off of ? I think 2.0 Saloon or 2.5 estate.

Clive you need a bracket like this, I can pop it off and send you the details if you wish

What a can of worms we've opened !

when i did the GT6 ALL cylinders were new, and the questions were asked are your seals compatable with silicone fluid, along with the brake lines, servo unit, the calipers were sent to https://www.bcs-automotive.co.uk/#/

"BCS" did come back to me and point out that the rear drums would fade with use, but to date, they were done in July 2015 the drums and calipers are still red,  

When I restored my GT6 I opted  for silicone, and I also changed the family run about as well i think at least 5 years ago, ive had no trouble since, 

iani I hope you took chocolate biscuits round to Tony's, I found he works better with them 

I had a similar problem last year, mine won't come on not matter what I did, after all the usual checking I purchased a new relay from eBay 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174515829414

and the problem was solved,  fan now works fine I think I paid £5 

Ive kept the trumpets inside 

well my boy hood wish was a tadge noisy, the sensible setup is loads better

I used https://www.fueltanks.co.uk/services/fuel-tanks-renu/

on my GT6 mK3, I did clean the inside of the tank first, it was a bit noisy half a shovel of small pee shingle drop of water, then I sent it to Hartlepool Rads, I did check about the E10 fuel first, I have a filter next to the tank and ive never had to changed it 

where from Pete

I run triple 40's 

Almost the same as mine 

Well all went fine until i filled up with fuel £1.80 per ltr what a rip off...

then on the way home the car wouldn't rev round to 6k and the speed wouldn't go over 50mph, I had cyclist queuing behind me, and cramp in my right foot I just couldn't push the peddle down 

it was only with your help, thanks very much 

test drive number two is about to happen 

Gland, no I didn't find a break I only had 40/50mm of Pink wire each end, as I didn't want to cut open the loom to investigate further, When I back tracked my order for the loom I gave a Rimmer's part number for a non ballasted loom, now when I checked back the guys email quote is a different part number, I only went with him because Rimmer's where out of stock, I took it for granted that I got a non ballasted loom, It has always had 12v coils, Many thanks again for your help

Gland the small white in the photo (above post) connects to the Pink, in my case just behind the battery and below the fuse box,  ( you can see it in the photo) then along towards the dip stick to where the two White / Yellow wires joined one to the coil and the other to the starter relay. Now the starter relay wire has been terminated not used any more, and the White / Yellow to the coil has been terminated not used any more, now the White from fuse box to the Pink,  has been disconnected and a new White has been joined in behind the battery where I found the joint  to the coil,

( the Pink has been terminated no longer in use) and after my first test drive all is grand, also I've now lost the misfire above 3500/4000 rpm

Gland, Rob many thanks for your wisdom and help 

like this

yes i have taken the parcel shelf out, so I can see the back of the fuse box

thats the mystery, its in there somewhere, I have two whites coming out of the fuse box, and two on the ing switch, one measures 2.5ohms to the pink, i have just reconnected every thing as it was when i broke down, and it started, now with the engine running I have 12v each side of the coil

So am I reading you correct, can I solder the w/yellow wires back together, that will be the connection   between the coil +ve and the starter relay, make the pink safe, (not use)

then pick up a ignition "on" continuous feed (new wire ) to the coil +ve as well  

my head is beginning to hurt 

both w/yellow wires check out ok ‚ 1.1 ohms & 1.3 ohms, now to find the other end of the pink, it's not on the fuse box or ing switch 

Iv'e unwrapped 6" of loom and found this little rascal i shall start tracing wires both the wires are White and Yellow, Pink ?

gland is that why my hair has suddenly gone curly

I am checking this morning many thanks guys
