Re: Drop link wanted urgently

Hi Al. I'm just clearing out of my storage unit and stumbled across some unknown links the other day, but I have packed them in one of a number of boxes of bits to sort through. I'll try looking in the next couple of days, keep you posted. Incidentally, I used the guy at Bala in N Wales, who has tak...

Re: Daimler Conquest will not switch off.

Clearly, somewhere there is a short circuit between the battery live circuits and the ignition circuit. This could be very dangerous. I should ensure you leave the battery disconnected until the fault is discovered. Look for possible burnt wiring under the dash or bonnet. Has anything been done to t...

Re: Polyurethane bush material

There's another product, Vytaflex 60, seems a little less expensive and available in small bottles to avoid waste.

Re: Drive-It day 2022

But I've just washed and polished it and it's raining, again, all day in the forecast!

Re: Service Bulletins - Can You Help ???

Indeed, that is the one. An invaluable resource without a doubt and has answered several questions on the old now redundant forum.

Re: Service Bulletins - Can You Help ???

My word, you have been busy Richard. That is a very comprehensive body of work and I congratulate you.
