  1. well done

    find best cure for blocked matrix is industrial descaler called scale free available in 5 litres from cleaning companies

    diconnect heater pipes from engine then raise both above matrix using bungees or wire etc insert funell and pour in 1 litre scale free using gloves leave 1 hr after wards gently !!!!use airline to agitate not blast then leave 10 mins b4 flushing with hose both ways

     

    may have matrix and quite alot of other stuff hidden away so will look for lens if you reply

     

    by the way NB willl drag 18 est towbar out and had you asked 18 est back lights are on the shelf at my workshop

  2. mmm very rare car to have chrome bumpers 3 stud wheels and white indicators ,is it 5 speed? be aware there are 2 diferent makes of rear lens not aproblem if the bulb holder comes with it cibie or seima

    can find you some but not been asked for 18 bits for years so will only look if asked as t chest is a bit buried def no pumps think same as later volvo 340

    ebay should provide expect QH still list one

  3. usual problem is oil leak into distributor cap which turns to a sort of carbon powder and causes shorting out inside not helped by probably original ht leads ( have they gone rock hard if you try to bend them)if i get time b4 next 21T heads for scrap will investigate sunroof operation and try and keep bits for you

  4. so what happens if you cant park outside your house to plug your car in and thats assuming the vandals dont unplug you cut the cable etc or whos liable if someone trips over the wire ?

  5. yep def pgo stud pattern some 106 base specs are 3 stud think all my 14 stuff thrown away now may have rear shoes and cylinders as still got box of genuine bendix parts to sort through hope when it fires up no nasty cam noise other trick they used to do was strip splines on transfer gear shaft

  6. very guilty now have pulled at least 15 R25 turbos to bits the one in the garden pic has been scrapped the black one in the barn phase 1 is due to go soon sorry :roll: interesting story about 5/6 years ago supplied a black engine less rolling shell to a west end theatre as a prop for a play ended up with electric motors to drive on stage and they even converted it to LHD as it was sposed to be paris taxi ps call me on phone re my limo as very slow typing

  7. regarding blocked heater matrixes have had great sucess with industrial dishwasher product called scalefree block or clamp one pipe use funel and put 1liter neat into matrix leave one hour then if you have got airline carefully( remember this is corrosive stuff)blow bubbles into pipe leave another 15 mins then flush and reverse flush with garden hose fixe a clio last week that was solid and old boy had had no heat at for last 3 yrs :shock: how dare you mention bangers :lol:

  8. due to severe water leaks in my friends chicken shed/barn several borderline projects are now being scrapped as scrap is £85 ton 2 safranes went over 250 pair
