Had a discussion with AH Spares some years ago about the length of their carb sealing strip (their part no. BON125, original part no. AHB9095). This is the long rubber strip that attaches to the lip

Two different gear lever grommets that I have used are OK for a while, then, after some use, both move so that the rubber 'folds' where it shouldn't (radial folds). It looks terrible! Looking at the

Hi Listers Is there a consensus for the correct tyre pressures for Firestone F560s (with tubes) on a BJ8, for normal road driving? I seem to remember mid 20s for the fronts and 30-ish for the rears.

Hi Jim, and Listers, OK, I'm getting 50:50 'refurb' and 'upgrade' advice! A question, though - are the modern replacements polarity sensitive? Does it matter whether I'm positive earth or negative ea
