Fold the resistor wire three times either end so its thicker (and shorter) Or as @1812lsd said. You can get away with a single/double fold if you leave a loop at the end but it's loser and probably wont make contact properly.

Well lower than 140k should last longer. Although that said from what I've read mileage doesn't really matter to much its all about how its been kept.......Correct myself again even if its kept well it can still go. Take @Dr Jekyll and his mishaps for instance

I'd get a lower mile engine, get all the belts done while its out or buy one with them already done, chuck it in with new clutch as above and enjoy a fair enough thousand miles of happy driving

At first i'd think engine mounts on the vibration side of things but you say you lose power, could be the drive shaft has worn off the teeth but that's unlikely so im at a loss

hmmm that sucks! so get it right first time or light gets stuck on!

Not on a cup i dont think buddy. However the Momo has the holes to get the cables through. this is what i have any way

resistors worked on mine, had to triple fold them at the end to make sure they made contact properly though

Will keep my eye on this. What's the plans?

ahh maybe mine is totally empty. i was thinking my compressor was dead too!

@GrahamS fancy giving mine a go some time ;) I'm useless with wiring and soldering! Got my heater control panel to go in and still not confident just swapping pins around :(

Just needed one of these too! :)

Relay and box turned up today, only ordered it Saturday morning :smile: going to try and give it a go this week after work if the weather stays nice.

Ok cool. I currently have my heater controls unplugged as i'm doing the ph1 to ph2 dash conversion (using the analogue controls) but the dash dimmer isn't working so my guess is its probably that that is the issue :)

Does anyone know if this is on the same circuit? If the heater controls aren't plugged in I'm guessing this could be why my dash dimmer has just stopped working?

Sure does. I think it'll look pretty good

Much like for this post!!

The ph1 dash never grew on me, I wanted to like it but what with it being manky round the silver and melting top dash it had to go.

Cool well let me know when your about and i'll come get some stuff :) I got clocks just missing that bit.

Not sure if I can be arsed to rip up the cup carpet again to change it. I'll be getting the 182 seats :) will try and get enough leather to retrim the Ph1 rear head rests as I prefer them. Fuse cover would be great, don't suppose you have the coin tray that goes by the clock as well do you?

Yeah started it at around half 1 and finished at about 5, didn't take long with two of us.I've got an OMP on so should be ok. Probably just wear down over time although doesn't look like it's catching. I may need to swap out the self tappers for counter sunk screws if that's the problem Got a...

So i di the ph2 dash conversion today :smile: A whole lot easier than the guide might suggest! Didnt get a before pic.. everyone knows what a ph1 dash looks like. mine was in a bit of a sorry state with marks all over the silver etc and the top dash was melting and would just rub off if you...

So i got this done today... well not the wiring but the conversion :smile: went really well... however... 2 issues really. First is one i've probably caused myself and the second one i cant for the life of me figure out why its doing it. 1. Dash dimmer switch no longer works (tried both...

Yep looks lovely... will probably get linched for this but i quite like it with the red/pink wheels too!

Yeah that's where i saw them and got me thinking :)

I've changed mine over, looks 100x better although im tempted to get some Ph2 base model none colour coded and see how it looks

Does FT mean 'F'ing tight' or does it mean 'finger tight'? I always find that if its not F'ing tight it just works it way loose!

Hows this coming along buddy? @Dr Jekyll

hmmm! might help cure the low hanging ph1 front bumper!

Yep its the cone filter. The manifold would have been put on probably because the standard ones crack as they are sh*t!

Mine are also the wrong way round but they have been cut by a previous owner for some stupid reason. I don't have any airbag lights on though so doesn't help much
