  1. I got one similar from eBay, they dispatched it from china 3 times and I never received any, this went on for a few months. Got the same item from a UK seller in 2 days
  2. Wow! nice motor, I've not seen that one knocking about, then again I only saw Keano once out of club meets in about 8 years.
  3. Happy Birthday, that time of year again :)
  4. I've just got 3 tins of shultz and a gun for £19 all in. I'll get round to it one day............
  5. Exactly,I don't think people look at kitted cars the same in general. but been there done that lol
  6. Excellent mate! Stunning! you should be really proud, kick back now and enjoy it :)
  7. On your first video the spring looks to be compressing but look closely 'is it stuck to the pin' what I'm saying is that the spring should move freely around the fulcrum pin. The booster depressing and connector there looks ok (I assume that you know the snap pin is missing). At a second glance there should be a large bolt through the fulcrum pin is that present? as I cant tell. Look at the workshop manual CL5 under clutch section, check its all there.
  8. The reaction disc had fallen out? put back in and rebuilt all, when I finally got sorted and was about to tighten up master cylinder the push rod had pulled out again, was not happy :(. anyway went ahead with test seemed better but sill about 20% free play on pedal travel. I swapped over the slave pin to a 5mm longer one as It would fit, (from my old slave to my new slave) Does this look OK to anyone that would know? I don't really want to take all apart again to check that the disc is still in place as I risk pulling the disc out again on inspection.
  9. I got a filter with my profec II and it was a small inline paper air filter the size of a 10p, sorry don't know about motorbike fuel filters
  10. Got a slave cylinder pin made up at work, came home and ground to the exact length (1mm play at fork), still no good. Going to strip booster down one day this week to look for a reaction disc :/
  11. I racked up over 10 years NCB with Adrian Flux, 7 years on the zed Was always the cheapest for me but zed not been insured for 5 years now :(
  12. Hope you get it sorted for the trip mate
  13. Your right (pin coming out of booster),mines a bit rusted up though and because it forms a seal I didn't want to go mad with the grips to loosen it. I discarded that because according to the manual you can only get 0.5mm adjustment anyway. Saying that in the manual it also states that the booster might be kaput if it need more adjustment, I thought it may have been OK when I put it back in due to the stroke measurements. I did inspect the booster and there was no vac leaks and It did hold pressure when I capped off the pipe which goes to plenum.
  14. I have taken the booster out and inspected, put onto pedal assembly on bench and adjusted to get the full stroke of the pedal, I am getting now approx 28mm of stroke at the booster cylinder at the pedal side, I measured the master cylinder stroke and is 30mm. Just reassembled and the pedal is better but not great, its stiff only after half way downward stroke, I'm going to get myself a 10mm longer pin at the slave cylinder as when the pedals on its first half of stoke its doing nothing and that's all I can think of, I don't know why it needs altering something must be amiss the pedal doesn't get better through pumping either.
  15. No bud, TT he switches are well out of the way and the stroke is on maximum. When the master cylinder is off and the pedal is pressed the push rod comes out of the booster in 2 stages and can be pulled out of the booster, bear in mind the cluch wasn't working at the time that's why I looked at this (I have a video). Don't think its right, need to have a Google research you can get booster rebuild kits not for a zed but for a patrol, I've going to have to gibe this a go.
