I need to insulate a fuel pipe, do Halfords sell anything suitable or can anyone think of anything home made to do such a thing?

Oh by the way have you got a book?

Phil · 30th May 2011, 17:32

I do have a book, yeah. Thanks mate.

I have had a damn frustrating day, but has finished rather satisfactorily. I had to re route the pipe from the tap. In the end I just made my own from steel pipe. Works beautifully now.

next job, carb balance and tune up It's a little sluggish so I think they need doing especially after I replaced the jets and float needles.

also transmission oils.
Don't suppose you have any almond panels col, and a light grey carpet you want shot of? I only need the bit that goes under the seats. Not the centre console. Someone has replaced it with green house carpet!

Does it have SUs or Strombergs?

Ah good at least you're making progress

Nowt left in Almond I dont think, what do you need & I'll have a look & see what I've got in other colours

Oh no grey carpets either but try Ian at Rover Classics he had some odd bits

Cheers Col. I don't know whether my doors are that bad to be honest I need to take it to my bodyshop man to ask him.

Are fuel gauge senders easy to get out? My gauge doesnt work! Only goes up to 1/4 tank.
Rear 1/4 panels, mine aren't what I would call solid. They aren't loose but you can definately move them if you wobble them. Not loose. More bendy.
