    Blocked fuel jets/Crud in fuel line??

    Thanks Panky! We did get it going, eventually. Whatever the problem was it seems to have 'blown through' but we will follow all your advice above. Is there some fuel additive we could run through it. We always fill with E5 but it still has ethanol in it. Last filled up in June, but not filled...

    Thank you that was brilliant advice and I have ordered the seal from Simply bearings with the dimensions in the link! Huge help! I also spoke to OverDrive and he says the overdrive is a D? and thinks he has the seal, so will sort that on Monday. :)

    Advice re parts/repairs for Gladys please

    Ok that makes sense but does the J or D gearbox affect the Clutch Slave Cylinder or Clutch Master Cylinder? ie are they different for each type? I just don't want to order the wrong parts. Once I know which gear box i will order those two plus maybe the Brake master cylinder from the same place...

    Advice re parts/repairs for Gladys please

    Thank you Panky. That's helpful. Do you think our gearbox is the J and not the D. Bernie said to contact OverDrive in Sheffield for that seal?? And when you say go for the larger bore, can you tell me more?? Bernie has been lovely about me pestering him with Qs but I don't want to be a pain...
