The Piranha is breaking down and causes the engine to cut out suddenly. I cannot drive the car at the moment as one never knows when the engine will stop. Julian, from Discovery Land Rover, looked at my distributor and said that it was missing a few parts that the new Pertronix would require. I don't have a spare distributor to rob unfortunately. Can anyone help please? I am having the unit swapped over next week. I would be happy to replace the distributor that you lend me, yours would simply tide me over to allow this necessary job to proceed. Sorry about sending this worldwide, but there are some Rovernet members here in Perth Western Australia, as well as across Australia to whom I am appealing.

Does anyone have interesting photos of a 1950's-1960's garage scene suitable to be copied for a mural? I am putting together ideas for a wall size mural, ideally that could be painted as looking through a door or window ;of a garage or race preparation area in the 1950's to 1960's? The city of Sebring Florida is celebrating their 100th anniversary, and I am trying to present some ideas to illustrate their rich heritage, in that era.. There are some well intentioned people in Sebring, who are good at PR, but without some helpful advice, would probably choose the Chrysler Sebring as the car of the year, because they don't know any better.

They did a great job of making me a new set complete with the original labels sewn back on (I cheated because my interior is black and the 'grey' of my originals was a putrid,washed out, greenish grey----but they could probably match the material color for you).

They were given to me so I do not know if they are what you need. To describe, they have three points which appear to be made to slip over posts so they can be easily removed from the car rather than the more modern style of bolting the belt to the car. There is a parachute logo on the buckles and a nylon padding stitched to the shoulder portion. Let me know if these are what you need.

At that time, the P4 called for a Monroe # 4018 shock in the front and a #1020 shock in the rear. These numbers are now obsolete BUT the catalogue went on to say what other cars of the era used the same shocks. Here you are guys : The 1020 was also used on : 61-68 Toyota Corona(rear),, 58-69 Rambler American(rear), and the 56-61 Jag Mark 8 & 9s...... The 4018 was also used by : 59-60 Mercury all except Comet(rear), 57-60 Ford F-100 truck(front) Better add this info to the archives. Does anyone else need shock info? This catalogue shows quite a few other now dead foreign vehicles. Glenn Los Angeles -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I put front Munroes on a while back and to be honest they seem a little soft but never having driven a P4 before I have nothing to compare it to.

Ultimately, I suspect this is a farce because if it is an internal combustion engine then there has to be exhaust. I don't fancy having a watch with an exhaust pipe sticking out the side!!!!! Applications such as a pacemaker seems similarly absurd---where are you going to vent the exhaust? (Yes, this leads to all sorts of openings for witty Rovernutters, including the idea of tapping into one's GI system and increasing the amount of gas escaping from one's posterior-----I won't digress any further!).

You didn't really have to compete with me but you are up on me by ONE. I recognize all you wrote although I am more fortunate with lack of pain. I am secured with Titanium wire - hate to think of airport security in June, July, and November :-( I was in hospital most of the time from surgery on Dec. 23 (Christmas present?) to last Friday due to a variety of reasons. I found learning how to walk again a challenge - not there yet. Walking faster now. Balance improving. Cautious on steps. (I was just thinking - I think I can trump you with chemo treatments for a low level reoccurance of lymphoma. The first treatment was outstanding and kicked out two visible lumps completely. The doctor is impressed with how well I am responding and expects less treatments than he first thought. He gave me clearance to fly east in June. Now, I just have to sweet-talk my cardiologist. Sorry all - now back to Rover talk :-) PS. This is just like a pub atmosphere where occasional off-topic talk can occur, Clubs can make announcements to members, people can ask questions, give answers, and have civilized disagreements.

I swapped in a Sanden SD7H13 R134a compressor, new 134a hoses and O ring type connectors, larger parallel flow condenser, new TX valve, new 134a drier/receiver and pressure switch. Used existing evaporator but got it flushed out and pressure tested. The early Australian spec SD1s had the Alpinair under dash unit fitted with ducting into the heater outlet dash vents with the a/c controls (they came with 3 speed fan and adjustable thermo switches) beside the central vents above the console. On the Aussie versions the vents were raised out slightly from the face of the dash in a special padded panel. I bought everything online from Jeremy at www.speedyairspares.com.au It works extremely well.

Any A/C shop will recognize the thing immediately not even caring that it came from a Rover. It sounds like a complete replacement is in order. I dont think you can repair the can.

Message-ID: <7A028692E2B9475B8BB86FA42C3DAD93@userpc> You should grab it!! Years ago I wanted a Jag, I went to look at many examples, including one owner vehicles. Each time I went they took great delight showing me the pages and pages of receipts that they had spent that year, truly daunting, I remember remarking it must have been a bad year, they all pulled out almost the same number or receipts for the year before, and the year before that etc, one guy had even bound his. This really turned me off, I saw one of the first for sale that had been fitted with a Chev 350 and Turbo 400 transmission, just for fun I went to see it. I asked him the same question, how much did it cost for maintenance? He looked at me with a funny expression and said " Points, plugs and gas!" I bought it on the spot!!!! It was much more powerful, 100% reliable, 100% more fuel efficient an a lot of fun till it was stolen and wrapped around a tree. Still would like another one!! Maybe an XJS with a 350HP 350!! Scott.

She informed me that I had a problem with windows that I reported 3 weeks ago (?) and she had been instructed to give me a call to help me fix it. After repeatedly asking me to hit the windows start button and r then tell her what was in the run box. (I had already started to shut down the laptop by this time) I told her it was empty and what could I do? (By this time I had turned it off and shut the lid)After asking me to do it 3 or more times I told her that the screen had gone blank and what had gone wrong could she help me to fix it? (By this time I'm watching the news). She told me to hang on, as she needed to speak with someone. After holding the line open for a few minutes or so I hung up to receive a call back soon after. Once she phoned I went through it all again, by this time the laptop had gone cold as it was under the table, and told her that the screen had gone blank again. She then told me to turn the computer of and start again which after a moment's pause I said I had done, we then went through the same process again for a few minutes more only this time when I said the screen had gone blank she hung up.. I wonder how much a 10-minute call from India to Australia just cost them... BTW if you do get a call from someone tele- marketing dont hang up as it gets logged and they keep calling again and again. I tell them I will get the person and put them on hold.

It apparantly was some sort of dark blue green teal type color at one time..the body is really pretty good, the paint is shot, the original interior is shot. The radio had be replaced with a remote type radio/cd player, that works. The wheels, chrome w/ bulbous chrome jag caps, not too bad/serviceable. A luggage rack/a bit shot. No sunroof. The spare tyre identical to the running ones, with no apparant visible rust in the trunk. But what impressed me the most, is in taking a fast look, nothing seemed to be monkeyed with on the exterior, even the xj 12 emblems are in place. Front and rear windows didn't seem to be clouded either..but again, I just hasitly took a fast look. I remember growing up, how I was introduced to a 1959 Big Austin-Healey 106. It had been professionally built. Chev 350 w/muncie shortened 4-speed, shortened '57 chev rear end. Discs all the way around. 90 chrome spoke wheels. Adapted '63 AH roll-up window doors. Some kinda mill under the hood, and the hood had not been altered Black, with black covertible top, red rolled and pletted interior. The headers of course were beautifully customed..and the only difference you could tell about this SLEEPER, was it's four very small diameter exhaust /tail pipes exiting, straight out the back... Gentlemen...it was back in the days of Cruising..I actually saw the car jump straight up off the pavement..and disappear!..that was impressive at my young age..and I never have been right since!! I followed the car for years, amazingly, as I know it, it has had only two owners..one being the original guy who had done all this...and then the present owner..of whom I have lost contact with..but as I have been told, the car still exists. I'm basically a purist, with a touch of let's fix it better, improve, in the way the car manufacturer didn't...I still feel the designer/engineer with some of these car companies, have no insight into the practical real world.... I'm probably like most of you, whether you really want to admit it or not..I have too many automobile projects already, opposed to the time I've got left to live on this beautiful planet!..I already own an '86 XJ-6, stock, I might add, Haha. There's no real monetarial value in these things that I see, just therapy from the real world (smile)! Guess I took the liberty of being a real blowhard here..but i just hate to see a vintage car go to waste..and I realize it happpens everyday all around us..guess we just can't save th Whale either, huh Rover Guys..but we're surviviors..LOL!

I've used http://tinyurl.com/6g8g24g .It comes with a table that tells you how much to put in. You need to know how much R12 or 134 your system holds. This time around I've ordered Industrial 12a Refrigerant . When it comes to oil if I've just fixed a leak and don't have any signs of oil I don't add any. If I've added a component I'll add a couple of oz of the correct oil. The refrigerant manufacture will tell you what the correct oil is. Lastly you need a set of gauges or have access to a set.All the pressures you need are on the web site. Good luck Nick please tell us more about the R12 refrigerant substitute. I have a 1994 Range Rover that needs recharging/leak checking? I'm not sure which product from Envirosafe to use. I guess I need to check for leaks, and perhaps top up the compressor oil?

This has happened to a number of my friends and colleagues. What they are trying to do is to get you to allow your PC to be remotely controlled thru the Windows Remote Desktop facility that comes with certain versions of Windows. Warning! Take extra care when responding to unsolicited phone calls purporting to represent Microsoft seeking your computer details and instructing you to implement changes to your computers control panel. While this seems to have come from an Urban Myth story, it is in fact something that is happening here in Australia at present. My friend received a phone call purporting to be from a Michael Smith of "Windows Service Centre, Sydney phone 02 6100 3034". The gist of the call was to say that his computer had been infiltrated and had a malware problem. Sounded convincing, especially after my friend read that in the Car Club forum one of the forum members had developed a virus and / or a possible malware infiltration. The caller spoke most convincingly about how each computer has its own individual identification reference embedded in it, and that they, (Microsoft) naturally were alerted to his problem The caller wanted him to open the computer's "Control Panel" so he could guide him through the necessary "corrective" steps to "clean" the computer system. At this stage alarms went off in his mind, and he ended the call. My friend called Microsoft Help in Sydney [ph. 13 20 58] and they confirmed that Microsoft DO NOT contact users in this manner. He said that it should be reported to www.scamwatch.gov.au. Microsoft will themselves be following up this matter as well. So, for all you novices and even "experts" out there be extra careful!

Each time I went they took great delight showing me the pages and pages of receipts that they had spent that year, truly daunting, I remember remarking it must have been a bad year, they all pulled out almost the same number or receipts for the year before, and the year before that etc, one guy had even bound his. This really turned me off, I saw one of the first for sale that had been fitted with a Chev 350 and Turbo 400 transmission, just for fun I went to see it. I asked him the same question, how much did it cost for maintenance? He looked at me with a funny expression and said " Points, plugs and gas!" I bought it on the spot!!!! It was much more powerful, 100% reliable, 100% more fuel efficient an a lot of fun till it was stolen and wrapped around a tree. Still would like another one!! Maybe an XJS with a 350HP 350!! Scott.

A Jag without well known jag's problems... -----Messaggio originale----- Da: rovernet-bounces at rovernet.ca [mailto:rovernet-bounces at rovernet.ca] Per conto di British Rover Inviato: luned? 21 febbraio 2011 19.02 A: rovernet at rovernet.ca Oggetto: [Rovernet ] XJ 12, 350 chev and trasmission conversio - Okay, I'm a Rover Guy x2,but for all of you that other British interests... I've come across an interesting piece today, that I have to share with those of you that might be interested..I'd hate to see this item go away, if one of us needs to have it. This young kid' in town, has got a 1974 XJ-12 ..350 chev & transmission conversion, that had apparantly been in his family for a few years. It doesn't seem.to be rusted out, it doesn't seem to have been monkeyed with except for the conversion. He has been running it all around the area, so it must be basically sound. Now beyond that it needs all kind of help..but the body looks straight, original chrome wheels look good..sooo, one would actually have a pretty good start, to make it into something sound. Looks like it could be had, I'd say for probably $1500 if you flashed the cash. I'm not an interested party in this, just hate to see it bashed, then crushed. If I remember those conversions were about five grand when said and done. It's a pretty classy blast from the past..if that's what you like, and where you want to pour some money into.

Some 20 years ago my brother and I put an American small block Chev V8 into an XJ6 Jag. Absolutely transformed the car in terms of power, fuel economy, reliability and servicing costs. We concluded that this was the engine that should have been in the car from Day One. Beautiful piece of kit and pleasure to have under the right foot. The only thing that caused problems in the project was cooling. The V8 was shorter, so the cooling fan was located too far away from the radiator. After frigging about with trying to fabricate a fan tunnel we soon settled on an electric fan. > From: scottsoldautorubber at bigpond.com.au > To: rovernet at rovernet.ca > Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2011 11:13:46 +1100 > Subject: [Rovernet ] R: XJ 12, 350 chev and trasmission conversio - Okay, I'm a Rover Guy x2, but for all of you that other British interests... > > You should grab it!!
