Looked on Z008 website but cant see details- can I be pointed at relevant bit please as threads hellish long! Regards Dave

One on ebay: Item number: 360048375199 Regards Dave

If it helps my freind had exactly the same symptoms on his NA, changed TPS with a known good S/H one @£30 and set it up himself using the advice on here- search forums- with total success! Hope you have similiar results!! Regards Dave

Workede most of the night for a show and car looks superb with new trims, polisah and 99 spec lights! Got my 89 indicator bulb holders to fit at last and put in chrome bulbs of same spec as my old clears........trouble is in daylight you can hardly see them flash...whiuch is not good!!!!!!!!!!!! :cry: Can anyone with 99 spec lights tell me if they use amber lights instead of chrome without fried egg and better results, and if I need to use higher rated bulbs? :bow: Many Thanks Dave

Sorry.....got to be Jessica Alba!!!!!! If I knew how to paster a pic on here I would!!! but heres a good link........http://www.gagreport.com/Funny_Pictures/sexy_jessica_alba_nude_pictures_1.htm Don't ban me....its Googles fault!! Regards Dave

:DDefo looks like a busy summer then!! My first outing will be on Sunday 27th April tho... to a little Charity Day and Classic Car Display... next to my mates little tiny 1927 Austin!! Great little show on the Victoria Avenue Car Park in Swanage from 10am till4.00pm -all money to local charities!! Any other z'ds welcome to fly the flag!! :dance: Regards Dave :D

Bit puzzled here?????????????????:confused: Just been on the South West area thread/poll and they claim Wiltshire and Dorset-........lokk on here and see all the Bournemouth/Wiltshire lot.........where am I???????? :eek: Swanage, Dorset................I'm torn!!!!!!!!! :cry: Regards Dave

Slipping clutch in autobox perhaps. Regards Dave

No probs cos they still flash amber! Regards Dave

Just disconnect the carbon canister (under passenger front wing) on the tank side as Topless says. If you remove the assembly you should be able to test purge valve anyway. Regards Dave

Honestly think fuel pressure reg symptom, not cause. Money on Purge valve/ Carbon canister! :) Regards Dave

Crystal fronts look far better. Cover the other holes with foil and they wont notice. Make sure you use chrome bulbs on sides and fronts and you'll lose the fried egg look! Regards Dave

There should be neglible pressure on the return side of the fuel pressure regulator- if it does rise there is a possibility that it will react on the diaphram and increase pressure on the injector side- more fuel will be injected at each pulse even tho the length of each pulse remains the same (same principle as adjustable regulators on performance engines) and could effect the engine through overenrichment. Regards Dave

I believe the problem will be a blockage in the Carbon Canister/ and or Purge control valve. The design with the canister allows vapor to build up until purged by the running engine. Since the tank is sealed to prevent vapors escaping to the atmosphere, (and the only pressure relief through the cap is inward to counter vacuum caused by cold fuel/ fuel drop) if the canister cannot purge pressure will build up. The only pressure relief available to the tank to the atmosphere is via the canister and thence intake manifold and engine! Remember as fuel warms and expands it achieves greater volume, + vapor pressure will have the same effect as pumping up the garden sprayer. Look at andys pic to see system. Dont want to be rude but cant see how the pump can pressurise system since only pumping same volume of fuel round and round, that is takes from tank and returns it less that burnt- to pressurise it would need to be pumping fuel from another source into a tank with no vent- think about it- thats how an air compressor works!! Regards Dave

Hi Lisa I have seen something similiar when a workshop blew a gun out with thinners outside (they had been priming a panel outside the booth)- forgetting vehicles parked a little way away- breeze carried droplets across onto parked cars! :headvswal By the way I think Lisa meant he said £100 a panel to respray. Best of luck Dave

Les300ZTT- only the other side of Bournemouth in Swanage- not far!!- should meet up! :duffer: BigDaveZX- looks like my quote slightly on the high side then and you got quite a good deal! Love to see how it turned out- Got Pics? Regards Dave

Many Thanks for that- anyone else got quotes after the recent group buy? Regards Dave

Hi All Just got the 99 spec and wondered what everyone considers a reasonable charge to weld up old holes, fit new spoiler and respray with Tailgate- with me removing the old spoiler! :confused: So far quoted £380.00 plus VAT! :headvswal Regards Dave

Mine was idle control valve sticking solid- just replaced with good S/C hand one. Regards Dave

Clutch Thrust Bearing? Regards Dave

Mine did this- stuck idling valve- back of engine on battery side- had to replace it- b of a job!! If you look in the manual its the one with the slotted screw for adjusting idling- threads on here describe process but mine did nothing when turned so quickly obvious u/s. Regards Dave

Really sympathise- rust in that place on import unusual. Can't get my head round 'heavy oil'- isn't that diesal? :confused: Regards Dave

Bad Luck- easy repair- interesting tho as not the first time this cars been repaired in the same place- plenty of filler showing through! Good Luck Dave
