Firstly, yes, the ignition light should be on all the time that the ignition is on but the engine isn't running. The light is there to tell you that the alternator is failing to charge the battery -

Where do you live? In the UK Rimmers can supply a re-conditioned tank for about #200 - they don't appear to list brand new tanks, which almost certainly means they are no longer available new (if an

For a start, try and find as many advertisments for Spitfires for sale, so you can be sure your colleague is asking a reasonable price. It is not always easy trying to haggle with someone you work w

If it were me I would start with the dip switch. The switch connects to the wiring loom with a multi-plug connector - disconnect it, try and identify which wires operate the dip, and test whether th

I would suspect a poor connection somewhere between the battery and the starter. With the amount of current drawn by the starter, even a slight resistance at a connection can result in a SERIOUS vol

That sounds right to me - this arrangement makes sure that the spring itself is tight down onto the diff. If the plate went down flush onto the diff, then the bolt load would not all be transferred

Could it be that the pinch bolt for the clutch slave cylinder was not done up tight enough? If so, repeated use of the clutch (over the first day when it was working fine) could have moved the slave

I might be wrong about this, but I have a feeling that only America got the pumped-up, nose-in-the-air front suspension, because only they had the legislation that necessitated it. So, if your DPO c

Sounds to me most likely that the HT lead has gone. But, it could be any other part of the ignition system feeding no. 1 cylinder - the spark plug, or the distributor cap, or either of the connectio

Just one possible suggestion - fuel tank venting. Somewhere (don't know where, but there must be some listers who do) there should be a vent to let air into the petrol tank as the petrol is removed.

It depends on whether you are LHD or RHD! On my RHD car the tab points right, I would assume on an LHD car the tab would point left; regardless, as you say, it should be right in between the switch.

Since you are using a Spitfire tub, I would have thought that if you replace the spring you should use a new Spitfire spring, as being more suited to the weight that it has to carry. But I'm no expe
