I know this question would be more appropriate on the Spitfires list, but I'm not subscribed to that and this one is busy enough as it is, so I hope you'll forgive me for asking this here. I pulled t

I believe that is the bracket that routes the fuel line across the front of the engine. It is there to keep the line from interfering with the water pump/fan belt. Inside the large hole is a rubber g

Come on Eric, you didn't really pull that engine and clean it up...did you? Your hands are too clean!...;-) My hands haven't looked like that in 10 years! Jim '67 TR-4A '68 GT6 '73 Spit6 http://www.g

Hmmm. It's a good idea, but I don't think that's it. On Spit 1500's with twin SU's, the fuel line is routed _behind_ the engine through a 90 degree bracket with _two_ large holes. One of the holes is

Does anyone else believe in gloves ? I find the latex ones don't last me over 20 minutes, tops. Any kind of solvent, including gasoline, and they turn yellow, hard and tear about 30 seconds later. T

Sorry if this is repeated, forgot to edit the squiggles at the end which supposedly stop the message getting through! Hi Eric I believe the bracket is the one that fits under the middle bolt on the m

Hi Randall I use latex gloves all the time now, I used to always be covered in black stuff, then I started hearing about all this nasty stuff in used oils and tried gloves, then I found that with cle

I've recently started using Craftsman mechanics gloves. They keep the grease off my hands, and keep me from scraping the skin off my knuckles when I use the grinder. They have a good texture, so I ca

Latex gloves are for the modern mechanic. UK law says I have to supply them for use by my staff. On a personal level I think that they are a nightmare. The first time I tried them I gashed my wrist w

change under >the Randall I agree about the gloves. I use nitrile ones that have no powder coating on the inside. This lessens the likely hood of skin reactions to the gloves. Latex can show a nasty
