The rear wheel brake cylinders on my GT6 Mk3 (very late) need replacing - they did not survive the removal of 30 year old corroded brake pipes and bleed nipples. Apparently these parts are no longer

I am worried by your statement 'is then very reluctant to go above 3500rpm and will get 'stuck' there'. UJ (drive or prop shaft ones) will not cause this phenomena. Is the noise definitely coming fr

I know this is a car list and not a beer list, but the larger Tesco stores sell the bottled variety (I have never seen it in cans) and pubs in the Wetherspoons chain sell it on draught, and very nice

Hardly worth the long drive south, but there is one in Milton Keynes. It advertises itself as 'Europe's Best Car Wash'. Have to say it does a lovely job on the wife's car (my company car doesn't des

James, it sounds like you may be running too rich with the new carbs. What needles are fitted (3 letter code)? Paul Tegler's site has good info about this. You will have to 'enrich' (thinner needle)

Hopefully you managed to check the needles in the carbs last night and found that they are ABT (standard). For use with K&Ns a good starting point is to use AAQ needles. These have the same diameter

I would imagine that AAU are *way* to rich even if you are using a full sport exhaust. There is a downloadable Excel spreadsheet that makes needle comparison easy, I think there is a link on tegleriz

Congratulations on the new car and also for surviving Round 1 with the M25. K&N's are a big plus point if it is performance you are after, it will not help you in keeping petrol costs down though :
