Thanks for the replies. Turns out a little piece of rubber I had used to sit the generator on had been sucked the air hole and stopped it spinning! One fan belt later and a lesson well learnt!

Thanks

Cheers for reply. Best part of £200 to get them from ISP not sure if they're worth that much to me yet!
Gonna keep looking!

Hi, wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for replacement bearings for the 12v generator?

Any help would be great

Thanks, Joe

Does anyone have any idea if you can buy coco car mats from anywhere other than the states? Ideally somewhere in the UK. I've trawled the net for weeks but having no luck.

Hi, what kind of filler did you use on your dash, cheers

Cracking explanation mike cheers, i dont have any shutters flaps connected on either think they were removed by previous owner. Do you think if i just blocked up the foot vents it would be enough to encourage the heat upto the windscreen??

Hi, cheers for your reply. Yep valve is working fine as is lever for rear heat. Getting a good flow of air from both right and left sides just the left side doesnt get warm. Is there a way to differentiate whether its the heat ex or the thermosta??
Cheers

i get a good amount of warm air up through the driver side heat exchanger, but the passenger side only gets luke warm at best. The flow amount of flow is exactly the same on both sides, just the temperature. Do in need a new heat exchanger or could it be something else like the thermostat?? Thanks, ...

Hi, so the two slider controls on passenger and driver side A pillars are connected to valves for footwell heating?? can you possibly post a picture or explain where exactly i can access them. The only footwell control i can find is the lever to the left of the handbrake?

Thanks

Hi, did you get anywhere with this thread? I am trying to get my heating system working again. The two slider controls on either side on the A pillar (passenger and driver) are missing on mine and only the wire sleeve. Do you know where the wires go from the A pillar?? is there a valve connected in ...

Hi mate, I'm in north east england not far from newcastle. It doesn't have to be fibreglass I would actually prefer metal, was just proving tricky to find any In the uk. I don't think the later model wings are any good for mine, but then again I'm kinda hoping someone knows more than me! If you coul...

Hi, i have recently bought a 69 fastback and am ready to get it sprayed, however the two front wings are in pretty poor shape. I have been told to replace them rather than get the rusty bits cut out. But i cant find any........ANYWHERE! I would even put fibreglass on but am struggling with that one ...
