Re: Mk1 Cortina Lower Ball Joints

Just checked Brett 21.60 GBP plus shipping and that's for a pair. That's for tie rod ends. Bottom ball joint kits 53.40 GBP. Not sure which one's you're after.

Re: Mk1 Cortina Lower Ball Joints

So did you have to join the club or do they sell to anyone? I don't actually have a Mk1 Cortina , just the struts and track arms. I might experiment with them on the front of a 100e Anglia. Brett. You have to be a member but if you need them I could always order them and get them sent to you. Let me...

Looks like a good fit. Since found out exactly where the clips go on the originals. Wondered why the old ones didn’t stay in place, had no clips before.

Mk1 Cortina part install question

Just ordered and received part # T42 from owners club, includes some small metal clips. Parts are the cardboard looking triangular wind deflector pieces that slot down either side of the radiator. Anyone have a picture of exactly how they install? Thanks.

Sign identification

http://www.enfostuff.com/forum/userpix/485_Ford_sign_1.jpg A friend of mine recently picked me up this sign from a boot sale back in Blighty, can anyone tell me where it would originate from? Haven't seen it before. Almost looks like a tyre logo that I remember but can't recall which brand....almost.

Last post on my fuel gauge..... honest. It’s now working correctly , it turns out the gauge needs 10 ohms to read full. Gauge is new but the range is 20 to 200 ohms so I had to bend the max level tab on the sender slightly to give me that extra 10 ohms, well 10 ohms less. Not sure how 10 ohms give...

Here is what we found with the sending unit, voltage stabilizer, and fuel gauge on the bench. The voltage stabilizer turns down the voltage from 12v to a steady 5v. The sender unit reads 20 ohms full and 200 ohms empty. The fuel gauge gives a 12 ohm reading when empty. We hooked it all up and had th...
