Rover Sports Register Forum

Welcome to the RSR forum and Rover ownership. It sounds like you have an interesting project and we would love to read all about the resurrection as it progresses. I do wonder if the car has been on the RSR register with your old neighbour all these years ago.

That's excellent Gary, hopefully some other members will be able to fill in some of the gaps

Welcome abord Gary, I watched that car go through the auction and it certainly looks tidy. Hopefully someone here will know it and be able to give you some information on it

The unit does not come apart, it's not an oil bath type. You need to clean the entire canister using a non volatile parts cleaner solution then allow it to dry completely before applying a heavy oil to the mesh. I've used Gunk engine cleaner and KN filter oil with good results
