The big black cylinder is the brake booster or servo.They seldom go wrong so should only be replaced if they wont hold the stored vacuum pressure.MJP on here can sort the cylinders for you.

Just get new ones Martin.They are not expensive.But if you wish put a kit in the clutch master but not the brake one,i wouldnt risk it with a car of that performace.

Neutral switch pin?
Wire it to the gearboxes neutral switch as it should be.This way the car knows your in gear and starts to advance the timing.Grounding it will just cause the ecu to think your in neutral all the time.

Neutral switch pin?
You need to wire one side of the switch to earth and the other to pin 44 on the ecu.

Awesome Driving
Power wise he nailed it,but in the handling he wouldnt.The falcon used to race rs1600 mk 1 escorts.The falcons always did well on the straight but the escorts could take the bends.I admire anyone that can navigate 2 tonnes of pig iron around a twisty track.

The beast resides in Whitehall which is on Eastons doorstep.So literally just up the road from where i work :yes:- Insane bmw find
Take a look at this gem ive found in Whitehall,Bristol.Funkis going to love this machine,To be honest who wouldnt.Obviously its work in progress and not reached its full splendour :lol:- Quick brakes question..
Have you priced up new ones,You dont need the bells,just the outer disc.Youll need to measure the diameter.Those discs are not made specific to the car they are just sold by dimensions.You swap the new disc onto the old bells.Once youve got the dimensions google them.They are made by AP racing.- ford diesel problem
Yes mate,one you crack off the offending injector the noise will stop.It will need re furbing.Shouldnt cost more than £100 i should imagine.- ford diesel problem
If its diesel knock and NOT common rail,undo each fuel pipe in turn with it running till the knock stops,if it doesnt then it may be the pump or timing.If it starts good then it prolly isnt timing.It wont be because an injector is in wrong,they will only go in one way,if it was leaking past the injector it will make a chuffing sound as air is forced out.- The Madmax help and support thread
The metal pipes didnt have corrosion when it was new bud.Best to do the same on any of the water pipes if they are pitted.Could prevent a disater.- The Madmax help and support thread
Those water hoses in your picture,did you smear sealant around the inside before you fitted them? They can leak if you dont.- Happy Birthday RichardSmith
