    Which header tanks will fit 1*2 pipework and where is the cheapest place to buy?

    Having looked at random MK2 header tanks on ebay it looks like any of them with the 2 holes will work fine? In fact they look almost identical to a proper 1*2 bottle? Should I buy a used 1 for £10+ £6p+p or is there someone to get a new 1 reasonable priced? GSF and Eurocarparts dont stock...

    Alternative to Williams wheel centre caps?

    I am in need of some centre caps for my williams wheels but don't care if they are not standard as the wheels are silver anyway! (and genuine 1's are not easy to come by for cheap!)

    Clunking noise on pull away and low speed gear change. Ideas?

    It is as if something is moving when I pull away. I had a similar problem before which turned out to be the wishbone balljoint, but im sure I replaced them both sides in the last 12 months! Patrick p.s. To check the wishbone bushes do you need to disconnect it from the hub and then check...
