glass action are the only off the shelves ones i can think of http://www.glass-action.com/type3.html, although i've got a set of fibreglass ones knocking about that were not made by them (no idea who made them though). other than that i think it's DIY as above or maybe go down the suitcase stereo ro...

Me and the lads here at work were toying with the idea for a bug (we got a few knocking about..bugs that is),I'm thinking of boring and stroking my already 1760 lump,all depends on other stuff going on though nice :D i've already got a scooby thats getting more n more expensive to fix that no one w...

yeah that's the one... well that or i could sell something, but that's probably not gonna happen!

The tricky bit will be the engine bay space..........not that I've thought about it ;) ;) was thinking non turbo would fit under the lid, but as i've not seen it done or got specific measurements at this point i can't be 100%... with a turbo motor however cutting or box over the lid are probably go...

any pics on your scooby build

just doing the research now... will do a thread when i get enough money to make a start, so i wouldn't hold your breath

scooby motor :evil: ... radiator in the spare wheel well, subtle vents in the lower valance below the bumper line piped through to the back, rjes bell housing to use a bus box with scooby clutch. all will fit under the hatch in theory or you can build a box to fit instead of the lid. not that i've p...

pass arrived at the weekend... cheers danny

Check the advance in the distributor is working - the rotor arm should twist in one direction and spring back. If you've a vacuum advance make sure that's working (suck on hose and it should move the distributor base-plate). I think the MoT would have shown up sticky brakes. Make sure choke butterf...

Good luck with finding it. These things do seem to have a habit of not enjoying the winter rest period - my lumpy idling seems to be caused by a similar lack of use! cheers for that... honestly she seems to have survived the winter really well considering. hope you get that idle sorted and get back...

no worries... i'll pm him now.

cheers

i'm not allowed in either and i'm a card carrying member (although i may owe dues for this year?!). pretty please can i be allowed in?!

It's not something stupid like the brakes sticking after it's little sleep? Might be worth feeling the wheels after a short drive to see if they are hotter than they should be. now this thought did cross my mind, but i dismissed it (perhaps too quickly) after doing emergency stops, etc... and findi...

Points, pipes on dizzy, condensor? (I'm guessing at it being to do with ignition as to my mind if everything else is ok then something wrong with the spark for yr bang to push them pistons)but don't quote me as I'm on the learning curve in a big way. cheers for the response... yeah it's looking lik...

hi all got the square out from hibernation this week ready for her MOT. everything appeared fine (well apart from the indicators giving up) until trying to get her to the MOT station last night. she started first time, runs fine on tick over, high revs no problem, etc... no leaks all fluids present ...

its most likely to be either a duff switch,or sludge in the system blocking up the switch To test the switch,pull the 2 wires off & touch them together M/cyl on type 3's is accessed from under the car,& theres a sheet metal cover held on with 2 screws that you need to remove for access.Removing fro...

The first thing I would check is the fuse. If that checks out, bit of a long shot, but have both bulbs failed at the same time...unlikely but... On my Type 4 and Bug the brake light switch is located on the side of the brake master cylinder. I would have thought it would be possible to test the wir...

just taken the square out for a run to make sure everything is right for driving to action on friday and neither of my break lights are working! now i'm lost without me manual and can't bloody find the thing :roll: gonna get the meters out soon as i get in from work tomorrow, but has anyone got any ...
