Re: New comer - Progress (edit)
Removed the lower UJ off the steering column as I thought there was some lash. It was absolutely shot! Have a post 86 replacement of a beefier design so may have had an earlier version (incorrect one) installed. Design fits SJ's prior and post images https://onedrive.live.com/embed?resid=D6A05D2C269...

Re: New comer - Progress (edit)
Found malt vinegar to be a very good cleaner of rusty parts, plus cheap at 30p a pint. Air Con condenser brackets came up lovely, but it doesn't straighten studs! https://onedrive.live.com/embed?resid=D6A05D2C269DC8A9%212686&authkey=%21AKk49bWkDpBvQGw&width=800&height=1500 The Thermostat housing was...

Think I'll be changing mine as the threaded part has already fractured.

Re: Engine bay wiring loom location
Ok so my SA is like this:
1, Red positive cable
2, Black negative cable
3, Main engine bay wiring loom that connects to everything in the engine bay
4, loom to gearbox. This includes the SA auto park lock but may be just your reverse switch
