Mine has done this for many years. Every time I start the car, even from cold now, I wait for the fuel pump to prime and light on dash to go out before cranking. Starts straight away every time, hot or cold.
I went for Bride rails for my Recaro ABE's and as I'm 6'3", needed to cut and shut the rails to get the seat base touching the carpet and gain sufficient headroom. Depending on your height, this may or not be something to consider.
I had the side brackets fabricated but I know some have used the...
Great F1 series to watch if you can get Discovery +. It is called "Lucky" and is a trip through the years from Bernie Ecclestones point of view. A good watch, very nostalgic.
Certainly worrying, but transmission has been in the car about 8 years and seems fine...
I can't see anything internal grinding it down, not physically possible IMHO.
Bolt removed. Glad I had to remove it. God only knows why someone had ground down the end of the bolt??? Any ideas?
Luckily I have a spare gearbox and switched bolts to get the job all finished today.
Update...after cleaning said bolt and leaving for a few days, it is indeed leaking.
Is it just a matter of undoing, cleaning and torqing to spec, with a little Honda Bond on the threads?
MTF will obviously be drained as part of the procedure.
Thanks Kaz.
Leak has been there for quite a while but very minor, so has not been addressed as a priority.
Not been driving the car much lately either.
I've not noticed anything seeping higher than the solenoid. Collection of MTF inside the solenoid boot though.
All, dry around the clutch slave...
Thanks OG.
The box was apart to install the 'R' final drive and input shaft, so possibly not resealed.
It may be worth me doing both the bolt and solenoid seal, to save potentially draining the MTF twice. As long as it does not cause issues removing the bolt - hoping it's not a bolt that should...
I have a minor leak from my 6 speed transmission. Originally I thought it was from the solenoid and have bought a new O ring to install. However, before I started I noticed that there is a concentration of fluid around the bolt beneath (bolt is centre top of picture) and wondered if that could...
Holes which go through the door skin for mounting the lower mouldings.
Replica 02+ mouldings, fitted to earlier cars are usually fitted with double sided tape.
That is what I took off mine. If you post a pic of the top, i can mark it up better.. It reduces the top front horizontal bar by about half its width.
Before you do that though, have you tried adjusting the cradle in-situ with the bottom bar? Once the cradle is bolted in place you can get a...
I had the original SOS bracket and fitted a Pioneer head unit. I encountered the same issue and had to butcher the bracket to suit. I cut the front of the top horizontal bar back by about 1/2" to get the fitment as I needed. The bracket ends up a bit flimsy but all OK when bolted to the unit.
My cats are 30 years old and struggle slightly on the MoT test. The way to get it through is to take the car for a hack up the motorway and then straight to the testing station while the cats are red hot still. Get it tested straight away and ill bet you it passes.
