Got the new radiator installed in the Sprite this weekend, and discovered,
while trying to flush the system, that the drain plug on the lower pipe is
missing. Grrrr. Irritiatingly enough, the Moss catalog shows the drain
plug as Not Available. So what does this plug look like? I'm assuming its
supposed to be a regular bolt of some sort, but what size? Anybody know
where I could get a hold of one?
And speaking of Moss, I replaced the choke cable with one from the catalog.
It must be for another type of car though, because it is about 10 inches too
long, and the excess has no where to go. I'm sure I can just clip it off,
but I shouldn't have to.. On the positive side, I also managed to remove
the entire interior with little problem. It sure is easy to access the
dashboard if you can sit directly on the car's floor. Important question,
though: Why is there a rubber plug on the inside of the sills, about 8
inches back from the jacking point?
Nevertheless, I couldn't figure out how to remove the guages. Any hints on
how to do so?
