richardmorris Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 what's wrong with the switch? Can it be repaired ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardmorris Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 They are out of stock This is the switch I need, part no. C38908. Any thoughts as to weather this Hazard switch from Australia will be the same as a UK one? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191764658059?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Looks ok - part number is the same. you could always swap the cover over from yours to keep the original look.

I have now emailed the company to see see if the picture is generic or the actual part they would send. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardmorris Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Hope it works out. I had a similar issue with the 2cv's hazard switch last year. Hazards worked and flashed the tell tale fine, but the tell tale only flashed on the left indicator not right ( god knows why). Replacement hazard switch and normality was restored.

richardmorris Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Not helped by every photo being taken from a different angle! SNG apart number is also c38908 so should be correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six-cylinder Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 Back to work on the LNA today. It has suffered poor running so we changed the carburettor for a second-hand one I had bought in the winter shut down, but no better. We did a compression check all 120-130 psi. Fiddled with timing but no better. Then tried the Ignition Module from the Visa GT, bingo it now runs much better. The question is the Ignition Module on the LNA is a Ducellier 521007D, the one we borrowed from the Visa GT is 521007E, what is the difference between a 521007 D & E?

Six-cylinder Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 I collected my MGB GT from my favourite garage today with a fresh MOT, without any issues. This is the same garage who are doing my MG Metro and as the two were parked together I snapped them. I then took the B to storage and collected my MG ZR so snapped those two together all well. One day I will be able to line up all 3! richardmorris, Bucketeer and RobT 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardmorris Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Do you ever forget you have a particular car? I'm currently working out how to juggle three cars around the country this summer, with one working perfectly, one needing paint and one needing a service and mot.

Six-cylinder Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Do you ever forget you have a particular car? I'm currently working out how to juggle three cars around the country this summer, with one working perfectly, one needing paint and one needing a service and mot. For cars stored off site I have to draw up a plan of where they are stored because sometimes I can't remember! It would be a good game for Shitefest, you could sit me in a black Mastermind chair and ask the question, name all the cars you have! Then run off to the pub and leave me there. purplebargeken, alf892 and HMC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demag Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I found different letters following dizzy part numbers usually mean different advance curves so if it pinks under load you might have to swap the Bob weights and springs.

Six-cylinder Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 Mrs 6C and I have been the Jaguar spares day at the National Agriculture Centre today and she thinks I went a step too far! I was looking for an XJ6 Series 2 Hazard switch and all the major suppliers say they are currently unobtainable. My sign worked when a lady chased me to say they probably had one at base and gave me her business card. As it turned out, I found a secondhand one - still on the steering column - with a trader who said he had no tools to take it off. He solved the problem by selling me the whole lot for £20! Mrs 6C was looking for parts for her MK10, bonnet, front wing and any other bits for the body when we start to restore it. She was overjoyed to find a good useable grille Asimo, SiC, Bucketeer and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMC Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Great! OBV online auction sites are very convenient but not quite as satisfying as finding a barg at an auto jumble. Where in the queue is the mk10? Six-cylinder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richardmorris Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Glad you found a cheap switch- hope it works too! I was going to beaulieu in may and it's always good to have a part to search for , even for someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Equalizer Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I do love S1/S2 XJ6s - more updates please! Massively underated in my opinion having owned a MK2 and Daimler Sovereign (420 Jag version). Coincidentally, I had a quick look at my 1970 S1 4.2 manual that's stored in the mother-in-law's garage this weekend. Here's a photo of it when I first got it five years' ago.

Six-cylinder Posted March 27, 2017 Author Share Posted March 27, 2017 From 1973 my parents had first a 1960 MK2 3.4 Auto and then a 1965 S Type 3.8 Auto when I was growing up. The S-Type lasted long enough for me to be lent it when I was a student if my car was broken and my dad wanted his Citroen GS, so I got to take it to collage occasionally. The picture is "THE" S-Type but the only picture I have is really of my Herald with the S-Type behind it. GoGently 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
