Agree with the revs, they need to be high, ideally a spare pair of hands to assist. Also worth noting mine does run cooler since pump replacement, only a few degrees but poss goes to show the pump was not as efficient as it should have been. I just had a drip from mine, changed it when it started sq...

CovKid I had issues with air when I replaced my water pump, 2 day job from start to finish, similar issues as you! With the same seized bolt. The only way I could get rid of the air was to ease the main hose off the block with the bleed valve holding the 4 main water pipes in the engine bay, that le...

Hi all What is "acceptable play" on a water pump / pulley in your opinions? I seem to have a bit of play on my water pump, small in and out bit more of side to side, no leaks, no loss of water, pumping round, no overheating, alternator / pump belt correct tension (regularly checked) i did ...

Hi Wonder if anyone could enlighten me at what voltage a typical split charge relay kicks in and out, obviously above 12v, is it standard kick in and out, or do they differ by a great deal, cant see any markings on the split charger I have.

The vehicle featured has lo...

Baldy Looks like a Holdsworth roof IMHO on the Ebay link, Ian Hulley corrected my typo, B & C pillar cross member connection (Not A & C as I said :oops: ) Looks like where the cross member is bolted to (pic 2) is either a welded part to body / pillar where the original cross member was conne...

Picture showing the 2 cross members

close up of cross member connection to body / pillar

Confirmed ! 2 cross members, A and C pillar, I have some pics that i will post up of an interior of a Holdsworth that has been stripped out, pictures sent by a member on 80-90, not sure if he is still around. Give me a few minutes to upload and link
