    Ph1 vs Ph2 Engine Loom

    Thanks, I'll have a look through your thread. Sure itl be a great help. Yeah I have the ph2 loom so as long as the pins in the white plug are the same I should be ok or maybe move a few pins. Other option is start from scratch and tie in the ecu into my own loom but rather try and use the one...

    Nut and Bolt sets

    Be careful of using stainless bolts on carbon steel parts, can often cause further issues due to galvanic corrosion and dissimilar metals. Especially in a corrosive atmosphere or where theres lots of moisture / salty roads

    Nut and Bolt sets

    Screwfix do sets of nuts and bolts in a tray but can't comment on quality as never used. Something Iv always meant to get myself but I always seem to get by without purchasing a set

    Oil filter sandwich plate or sump plug adapter for an oil temp gauge?

    Gearbox noise on idle (Gripper diff)

    Just replaced the gearbox, flywheel, clutch and release bearing last week and have a noise on idle which disappears when clutch is depressed which leads me to think its the release bearing. Unless gripper diff's can be noisy on idle (unsure if they see any rotation in neutral? Maybe a daft...

    The new tool thread

    Decided on a sealey set in the end rather than forking out for Bluepoint / Snap on https://www.sealey.co.uk/product/5637770847/12pc-reversible-combination-ratchet-spanner-set As for torches, led auto lamps do one with a dock but its smaller than most normal inspection lamps
