Rear lights

Sorry, I bet this has been covered so many times before but I can't seem to find much in the search.

Do 1990 rear lights off a e30 fit the cabs as well?

Re: LPG wiring

Car is partially running on lpg now, think i'll have to look into what Gareth has said above about clogged up solenoids.

car runs in 1st/2nd gear but quite hesitant, loses power in 3rd altogether.

the tank is making a ticking sound, not loud but not sure why this is?

Re: LPG wiring

Have you tried switching over as I described above? It can take a couple of seconds, you need to be moving in gear to keep the engine turning over whilst the changeover happens, revving at a standstill is unlikely to work unless the car is well setup, which is unlikely striaght out of the box.

How high should the beam of the lights be?

LSD hairline crack

I was putting new fluid into my 3.64 lsd and when i went to tighten the lower bleed bolt i cracked the part underneath it.

Can this be repaired?

Can it be welded?

i have a spare standard diff and it seems to be the same size.

Will this fit?

any suggestions?
