Re: DB18/2 lifting the car
While I don't have a DB18 I do use a double scissor style (2 platforms) lift for my Dart. It came with hard rubber blocks that sit under the chassis on the platform in 2 places each side, no weight is taken by the sills. All mechanical components can be serviced. In the past I've had 4 post style li...

Re: SP250 Inlet manifiold
Thats something I've not seen on any of the SP250 engines. I wonder it the "screw" discussed earlier in the post was a previous owner fabricating a 'vacuum port'?
Possibly same with the 'vacuum balance line', place a tee between them and thus the highest vacuum would be sensed.

Re: fuel level sensor
Sydsmith, I agree with your statement regarding attitude when posting or responding doesn't normally do any good to piss people off. In my case my car on a car lift and I'm not in a position to lower it just to take a photo! Anyhow I've attached a electrical schematic that shows only 2 wires in use ...
