Can't give a recommendation though!

No, that is not right. Only the Mk III has the Type 35. The earlier cars
have the DG automatic transmission.

Hello Fredrick and Rovernet,
I am pretty sure that an early P5 would actually be a Borg Warner DG 250.
Maybe someone else can write in and verify this. The type 35 was a late
60s, early 70s creation. Good luck, Garrett Bourque

Hi Ben,
The MK1a has Borg Warner DG auto trans. cast iron weighs a ton.
you can tell which one you have by looking at the shift indicator, the
reverse is at the bottom instead of being next to the park spot.

Message-ID: <508187B8.3050208@bluewin.ch>
Dear Rovernetters
Would you know if there is any chance to find standard height Boge rear
self-levellers (Nivomat), possibly in Europe or somewhere else?
Otherwise, could the latter be reconditioned?
If the only way is to convert to classical shocks: should I order
- Rimmer's SD1 Rear Shock Absorber Conversion Kit - Heavy Duty Shocks
- Rimmer's SD1 Rear Shock Absorber Conversion Kit - Standard Shocks
(the springs appear to be the same in both kits, just different
shock-ratings; I suppose the latter are a lot stiffer than the original
ones fitted with the Boge self-levelers?).
Would this conversion cause a noticeable riding difference?
Thank you for your advice and hints!
=> BTW, If someone is interested, I have a LHD CamGears PAS steering
rack (new seals necessary) and a set of 4 alloy cast wheels SD1
available in Switzerland.
Best regards,
Pierre.

Rimmer Bros sells standard rear springs and regular shock absorbers for
your SD1.
I bought a pair when they were on sale and am very please with the results.
I cannot tell any difference in riding height or quality over the obsolete
BOGEs. The replacements are not expensive and the outcome is very well worth
it.

None of the UK stockists or Scotts have them on their website but I understand Ruth may have them or can anyone point me to where I might get them?
Thanks in anticipation

Thanks for the number though as i'm in the UK I'm hoping for an email response but as a last resort it may prove useful!

Hi Vern,
Many thanks for the info, I did look on Wadhams but I was looking under Gearbox rather than Clutch & Drivetrain though ?15 (about US$25) (if you include our sales tax VAT) ?does seem a bit steep for 2 small rubber buffers and a spring!
As yet nothing from Ruth but will try and keep my options open.
Best regards
Alan?

Subject: [Rovernet ] P3 ongoing
Message-ID: <508D04E8.1070403@adam.com.au>
Hello again,
Its been a while, lots of interruptions, but the P3 has now gone from my
place for a short time. haha. It is now at the owners body shop for
paint etc, and then off to the trimmers for that huge task, then back to
me for light fitment and connection of same, and final checkover.
My reason for asking at the moment is the carby (Solex) is giving grief.
It has been refurbished, but some heavy handed person has been here
before, and it is a tad sad. He has read of a Weber conversion, makes
sense to me/us, but the question has arisen as to the simplicity of this
"upgrade".
Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated. Sourcing a Weber
should not be too difficult, but maybe there is a specific style that is
used. I am familiar with the Renault, Peugeot, Ford types, so again
advice would be great.
The airfilter will obviously need custom fabricating at the attachment
throat, I reckon, as most Weber's are "oval" in that area????. He would
like to retain the "proper" air cleaner if possible.
Thanks in advance once more.

Hi Grant
I had a 1948 P3 some years ago, and know the Solex could be a problem. I fitted a cyl head from a P4 with twin SU's and it worked beautifully. The head was a straight swop just had to adapt the linkage to the carbs. Good Luck

Help please.
My P6B has been languishing of late due to my tardiness in taking her
out and giving her a good run. When I did get round to starting her up
with a view to driving on a regular basis I found I had a very hard
brake pedal which was the same before and after starting the car. My
first thought was the brake booster/servo. To start with I replaced the
hose from the inlet manifold to the servo as well as the non-return
valve but with no change. My questions are therefore;
1. Do I assume it is the servo or could it be the master cylinder and
how can I tell? 2. Could it be anything else? Could the brake cylinders
be frozen? I suppose what I am asking is, what is the order of
investigation? Where do I start? I don't want to change over the servo
only to find the problem still exists.
For Australian members only, where can I get a re-conditioned (or new?)
servo? Is there a suitable replacement from another make? Is there a
service kit for a Lockheed servo unit?
Any and all replies will be gratefully received as I want to transfer
the car to club plates under the permit scheme. I know there are many
out there who have far more experience in this field than me.
Thanks,

Hello Ray,
Let me first say that I take it that this is a 3500 system since you refer
to only one servo and if so then there are kits out there to rebuild the
servo. You may need to make a tool to hold the can with in a vise while you
turn the back plate with another tool. I have had the same sort of problem
with a firm pedal and had the pedal kick back when applied. You had best
plan to go through the entire system to make sure you have all the bugs out.
Vacuum and hydraulic that is. Rubber has a shelf life that can't be stopped
so all hoses and valve rubbers may need to be replaced as well as the seals
in the cylinders. Check to make sure that the rear calipers are in proper
working condition as well.
Ben

Hi Ray,
Does the brake pedal remain hard even when the vacuum line is
disconnected from the servo?

Hi Ray,
Does the brake pedal remain hard even when the vacuum line is
disconnected from the servo? I had a similar problem and it was caused by an air leak at the master cylinder
holding the serve partially "on".
(This might only apply in the case of the unusual brake system fitted to NADA P6Bs. Don't know if cars for
Australia had the same system.)
Cheers,

Yes Bill, the pedal stays hard even when the vacuum line is
disconnected. The system on my car has a remote master cylinder attached
to the bulkhead so that the pedal connects directly to it. I know that
some systems had the master cylinder attached to the booster unit. Would
it be beneficial to have a look at the master cylinder? Take it off and
see if it needs a service kit or replacement. Thanks,
Ray

It's a check valve in the booster.

Subject: [Rovernet ] Considering purchase of Rover 90 P4
Message-ID: <6B70E34F-95CB-4900-84DB-A5D8A20174F0@dccnet.com>
I have just become aware of a Rover 90 P4 available to purchase in my town. I don't know anything of its history except that it is a Vancouver car (I live in Gibsons, BC). It appears to be have sat dormant for a number of years and has considerable mold in the fabric and surface rust on the undercarriage. That said, there is no perforation in body panels nor in the undercarriage, and chrome bits, trim etc seems to be quite salvageable. I have no idea yet of mechanical condition, though I am told it has run fairly recently. The leather is a little bit cracked in front, quite sound in the rear.
I have a moderate mechanical aptitude, though by no means professional, and have had some experience in maintaining and restoring VW Westfalias.
This car is tempting me.
I am thinking that offering $500, but going as high as $1000 would be appropriate.
If I buy it, my first step will be to join the Rover Club! (My father in law had a 68 2000TC in the 70s, and a Hillman Minx convertible which I used for a while.)
Any comments or suggestions?

Hello,
My name is Mrs. Veronica Gajardo; I work with the Status Tracking Service, a consulting
Firm in London , UK . We are conducting a standard process investigation involving
a client who shares the same name with you and also the circumstances
surrounding investments made by this client at HSBC Bank Plc.

inherit the title over the investments made with HSBC Bank Plc. The essence of
this communication with you is to request that you provide us information on
three issues:

known contact address was Madrid , Spain ?
2-Are you aware of any investment of considerable value made by such a person
at the HSBC Bank Plc.?
3-Can you establish beyond reasonable doubt your eligibility to assume status
of next of kin to the deceased?
It is pertinent that you inform us ASAP whether or not you are familiar with
this personality that we may put an end to this communication with you and our
inquiries surrounding this personality.
You must appreciate that we are constrained from providing you with more
detailed information at this point. PLEASE RESPOND BACK TO MY PRIVATE AND DIRECT EMAIL ADDRESS;

Obtaining the proper carby would be far easier, someone in the club should
have a spare or 2?? I have had a P3 that had a Holden carby fitted, looked like
an old carter from memory from a grey motor. Car ran well and seemed to pull
well.
Thankyou,
Scott.
