Hi All,

Been a while since my last post. Quick question! Best place to get front floor pans? Finally going to workshop.

Thanks

Hi All, Maybe this is simpler than I am thinking, But I am removing the ABS Pump unit to allow me to get the engine bay painted. The pipes I will mark up so I get these connected correctly once painted. Can anyone tell me what the symbols all mean? Thanks! https://i.imgur.com/fex28Nw.jpg https://i.i...

Finally Engine out after unbolting the gearbox. The engine mounts are rotten too, so replacement ordered!

Going to take steering to pieces and overhaul the rust and repaint!

Rear exhaust removed, but having issues untightning the bolts from the header to the front exhaust pipe!

Bought this little seat for working underneath. Very handy when moving with tool!

Removed engine oil and oil radiator cooler, Air intake and filter, Solenoid, coolant and reservoir, washer bottle and pipes.
Then removed bonnet! Removed radiator! Disconnected ECU! Do I just pull hard to get the cable out or this a two man operation!

Hi All,

Happy New Year!

Well, going to do this in short posts due to failure to do large post!

Been off this week and I managed to get closer to removing the engine!

Anybody having trouble creating posts with images. E30zone keeps crashing, due to internet issues. I'll keep trying, if this short post works!

Thats great thanks! I have not looked at the car for a while, but are there lift points if I use a engine hoist?

Hi All, Well, I have all that I need to get this done! So I had another vehicle (work) getting done and was told if I had any engine bay work that needs doing take the engine out. I do have some minor work. I'm picky, so he is right. Is this an easy task? How best to to take it out? Please let me kn...

Thanks! I'll need it.

Thanks for that! Body repair garage said he can fix the wings, so I have ordered the Valcas parts. Next project I have is to take boat engine out of my fishing boat and service outdrive etc. It is a D4 Volvo diesel engine with duo prop! Has to be fixed before end of March. There always something. Oh...

Hi All,

Well, this has stalled a bit. Awaiting BMW to have front wings. So far no luck. Any suggestions. Prefer new to suit the Mtech 2. All stripped and ready to get her fixed.

Well All,

Still waiting for the front wings on back order! Brian does not want to do this in bits and pieces, so I have to wait till I get all.

Well I have the side skirts off and body trim too. Didn't break any clips! Two new front wings required! Not going to be cheap! All parts came today except those wings are on back order!

Here is the old valance! Looks okay but the sides are rusty on the inside.

I am removing the side skirting next weekend all being well. I have order new expansion rivets, clamps, clips and screws for the front rear, and skirtings. Everything comes in 10's and 20's, so if anyone needs screws and clips etc, I should have few left over. These screws in the picture below are n...

Hi Folks, The E30 finally failed MOT reluctantly as was told by the MOT Centre. Brake pipes need replacing in places. The two areas under the car have holes now too bad, so I now have to get them fixed. I have parts from Valcas garage I ordered last year. Now I need to order more bits and bobs. http...

Yes that's my 68 fastback 302ci.

Hi,

Has anyone ever exported a car from Gran Canaria? If so, who did you use.

Richard

item 361589109057 on ebay is the replacement cable, so I have ordered this to have at least when it will be needed!

No luck with this. However I bit of extra lubricant to the old 2040 aerial and now it is working again full up and down. However, I would still like to have the correct fittings, if it ever decided to pack up.

Iphone 10 was used.

Paddy and Louise Kilday from Monaghan own this. Operates from March to end of October. There is a lobster business here and you can go in and buy lobsters freshly caught as they are kept in tanks. He sells them to all over the world. If you like crab you can buy off the fishermen if you get them at ...

Hi, The bright silver end of the coax cable is this one on the 2050. https://i.imgur.com/1qYjlEU.jpg And the old one on the 2040 is this one. The picture is not great but it has a slight lip on the end causing the connector not to fit the 2050. https://i.imgur.com/OC4gaJe.jpg They are similar but th...

The 2050 antenna socket is slightly smaller than the socket on the 2040. I'll get photos later today!

Richard

The Harbour, Mullaghmore, Sligo Town, Ireland?

Correct! Always a nice place when the weather is good. Can be bleak in winter! Draws coaches of people everyday during the summer and onto the beach. This year it is caravans and is packed on the weekends, so I avoid going into the village.

My fishing boat 'Gidley Way' in the habour!

It is well known area!

No, picture is on the coast. Enniskillen is on Lough Erne in Fermanagh!

Ah ha! Be a bit more precise!

Guess where this is? Those from N. Ireland and Ireland excluded for obvious reasons!
