    Engine Noise

    yep sound like bigend bearings...i bet its the middle crank bearings are very worn like my bro found on his mk1 2000,lucky for him eazy on mk1 2000 with engine sill the car...engine out joby there mate
  5. have you check if there is any leaks from the inlet/manifold manifold,mine did the same and found that the gasget was blowing so i checked the hg and found that was buggered between 2-3 pistons so it was sucking and blowing at the wrong time and made it run ruff and no power but it sat ticking over ok...or it could be even the points or fuel pump

    Engine Noise

    it could be big end shells as my bro's triumph mk1 2000 had strange noise coming from engine,he check pump/pully/alt/clutch/release bearing every that may be the problem and found out the main crank shells have worn(squeeling noise/squeacking sound at tick over and low rev's) he replaced the big end and con rod shells now all sorted and drive's mint.....he's a fourm member on here..(nicmk1est)...
  11. same here,my clutch and brake master's are the same so brought new one's not worth getting service repair kit's for mine(rusted up in bore's)

Even the harshest of stopping can be done effortlessly. ahh yes,effortless...i just dont want to hard like u do in a mini i had,that was a bugger on brakes with the same sort of system. this y im asking about the remote servo to fit to the herald...my old toledo&dolomite i had where great and effortless under brakeing this wot im looking for not to push and push harder.
  13. thanks,may ask for a test drive if any one's near me of these 13/60 as i never drove one ever befor.. :(
  14. just been looking around and got hooked on to this,would it be worth my while getting one of these fitted to my herald as im doing the whole brakeing system?  :-/ NEW LOCKHEED TYPE REMOTE BRAKE SERVO http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150972504832?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
