The Lotus Grand Tourers

Cheers Richard. I seem to remember when I had that problem that it was the short rubber hose at the back of the water pump.

Ive been driving mine quite a bit lately and it saves having to have the light pods up on a grotty day. Glad you like it.

Bash

Something similar, saves cutting into any wires. When its parked no one knows they are there and I could remove them and no one would know they had been there.

Ive fitted some discreet ones. DRLs are on when the ignitions on but go off a soon as the lights are switched on. I used two led lights from carbuilder solutions https://www.carbuilder.com/uk/micro-28mm-white-front-marker-side-light-pair , a relay, some light duty wiring because led lights hardly us...

Posted this a while ago but when it comes to pipes .....

I did mine a couple of years before Richard and its been fine so Im also curious how his was cos it was a pain to do. If the teflon pinion seals look ok leave them alone ( there be dragons !! ). Its usually only the piston seals that need sorting.

Bash

That's a great colour for that era of car.

Bash

There may be a market for those !!

I had similar gel cracks etc when I pit the v8 in that needed remedial work to look like new after spraying, I then covered the area at most risk with heat reflective tape. That's been on about 6 or 7 years ago now and still looks good.
I'm enjoying the updates, keep em coming.

Bash

How very dare you mr boole.

Bash

Have you checked the rubber diaphragm under the seat foam, they split. If its that the seat foam may be ok.

Bash

Blimey, that sounds arkward. The engine can be separated from the gearbox and pulled out on a crane that you had out anyway, or, engine and gearbox together without touching the diff or prop.

Have you tried pushing the bootlid down while twisting the key to release any pressure on the clasp.

Bash

Add me to the list after the show. Many thanks for producing it again.

Bash

Don't tell them pike.
