Re: Slight rattle &a Tap! Recommend hydraulic tappet replace?

Cheers for all the advice.

New oil and a good run and as you have said, it clears after about 10 mins.

Re: Slight rattle &a Tap! Recommend hydraulic tappet replace?

Sorry was meant to say, yes some decent synthetic oil. I have a small oil leak, need to replace the oil filler pipe (which probably doesnt help).

Ive just had the filter replaced and im off on a run this weekend, so will check after that.

Cheers

Slight rattle &a Tap! Recommend hydraulic tappet replace?

I’ve been recommended to replace my hydraulic tappets at a fair whack! It’s only a slight tap and a little rattle on the exhaust. Around £250 all in.
Does this sound reasonable and is it absolutely necessary immediately or can it wait a while?
Advice welcomed?

Cheers

Re: WANTED: Advice - 3/4 Rock & Roll Bed

I ended up buying one from 57lorat - on ebay. Can not recommend it any more highly. Superb! Great communication, delivery as expected and was of high qaulity and a spot on fit.

Has made a massive differnce and for the price a real bargain.

Re: Syncro Caravelle - Best wheels & where to buy them?

The gap between the tyre and the wheel arch is massive. Unusually so!?

Re: Syncro Caravelle - Best wheels & where to buy them?

Thanks for the link and recommendation, its a definite option. I cant seem to find the package deals?

I was hoping for something in the region of £500 (not bothered if secondhand) - Will look on ebay but how do I know they will fit?
