Just a quick shout! Thanks and congrats for setting this up. The google thing works... that's how I found you.
I just bought an '88 Classic about a month ago. Got an unbelievable deal and she runs strong, but it has some issues I want to tackle.
1) Non-functioning speedo and odo.
2) Non-working sunroof
3) Dicey power seats and mirrors (prob. needs a good cleaning and rebuild)
4) non-working Hella fog lamps
5) low coolant flashing (despite being full)
Any referrals on DIY for this stuff would be greatly appreciated! I have the 2 Haynes manuals, but would like to see what others have done on these relatively benign and common problems. My most recent project will be the replacement of my power steering hoses. The hi-pressure one is squirting like mad!
This is my second British car. First was a groovy little orange '78 Triumph Spitfire that I sold last April. Got this one to haul a little more stuff! and I have to say that so far I trust it more than my Triumph!
Pics coming later!
