Is the throttle rod spring set properly ie the sliding bracket/hook not slipped back?

I have fitted orange bulbs to the front sidelights and the rear white reverse light lenses. Conversion kits are available to have both in the front sidelights now. Through a system of relays, I have retained the trafficators. It would be foolhardy and dangerous to use semaphore indicators only on ro...

Nicely done P3 indeed It is a little low but sometimes excessive camber on the rear can affect the front. It certainly does so on P4's. I am not familiar with P3's just P2/P4/P5 though. Packers could be fitted as they are in P4's I suppose but the coil springs could be tired Welcome to the forum as ...

Was the oil pump rebuilt and the pressure relief valve replaced in the side of the block. Dizzies can knock terrible when worn especially the 25D6 but yours should have the DMBZ6 which is better quality.

Swapping the dizzy for a known good one may be useful before buying a reconditioned one

I use our 100 daily and touring Ireland as well. Ideal for modern roads. It does have power steering fitted by the previous owner (my late father in law) but I had no bother driving it before even on radials as I am used to series Land Rovers and the P2. Even my wife's classic Mini has heavier steer...

What is your problem as I do not understand fully your question.

They should not pink - the mixture does need setting up per the book and the timing is never absolute for any engine. Modern fuels often need less advance. It's best to use a strobe and then preferably with a vac gauge adjust timing to get the fastest idle.

Over long bolts/screws can just take longer to remove when rusty - they should not foul anything so I would try them

See earlier post and these

The arrangement works very well as long as the hole is not oval or the rod is not grooved and the lever is in the correct position. It hooks into a downward extension of the carb throttle lever

I can post a pic if you cannot find the car anchorage
