I finally got to the bottom of this yesterday, I will update just incase anyone else has the issue. The original issue was caused by a jumper connector across the high beam relay holder had broken, it wasn't visible as it was quite close to the screw,  The second issue with nothing working, I had mi...

Nice one, I will check the earths agin maybe change a few connectors, thanks for your input

I checked the bulbs too all ok

That was very promising news thanks. I have changed th bulb and went to test again, but now no high beam at all I have had the indicator stalk off and the relay There is 2x12v going to the indicator stalk but when I remove the stalk and try and find a contact that has continuity to the 12v pins, the...

I have cleaned all the main earth behind the fuse box, I ran a separate earth for the lights to the chassis too.
I don’t think it’s a bulb or anything because the near side headlamp and sidelight go out when the full beam is on.

Hi when I click the full beam on I only get the right hand light and the near side headlight goes off

Any ideas, I have changed the headlight relay

Cheers, I see. thought the news one looks a bit cleaner. not sure why they would add a replaceable tail pipe to a stainless exhaust.

You do get condensation dripping out of exhausts until the engine is hot, you see it all the time driving behind other cars. Coolant has a smell to it, I would have a smell of the soot if it has that weird sweet coolant smell then you may be on to something. How much coolant are you loosing? I would...

I am looking to replace my exhaust there are a couple of cheap stainless exhausts on Just Kampers one for 89 onwards and one earlier, does anyone know if they are interchangeable? I realise there are some better made alternatives for more money but there is so little to the jx exhaust I can't see th...

nice one, thanks. 

They are on really tight, standing on the end of a long 3/4" drive breaker bar should do it.

Also try wd40 and heating it up with a blow torch.

I remember repeatedly sheering my 1/2" bar until I bit the bullet and bought a new 3/4 bar and socket.

 

Aidan, I was just reading about the gear ratios in the 3H, do you think that it is a less suitable for bigger tyres?

Thanks that's very interesting   

are you 4 or 5 speed ? Which code gearbox ? If 5 speed then you'll be spending more time in 4th in the happy rev range but will enjoy cruising in 5th a little easier where you can use it Normal 4 speed TD box is same gearing as a Syncro TD, which could come with 205R14C as standard, great in 4th bu...

Had the Cooper, and they were totally rubbish. What did you find bad about the Coopers, I am after some AT tyres for my 2wd. I had this on my shortlist because they come in 205 70 r15. On paper they look good for me because they have rain grooves running around them, so presumably a bit more road f...
