hi, it's been a while...

Hi, I used to hang out on here about a decade+ ago. I couldn't remember my old 'handle' here so I've gone with this one.

 

I'm working on getting an '89 narrow bodied SE xFlow back on the road again. The plan is to

  • get it running! (electrics are all over the place, need a link to a loom diagram if anyone's got one please)
  • get it mot'd (cycle wings are fouling body - need advice here please. think the old wisdom was to limit the rack with jubilee clips?)
  • attend some events - I'm derbyshire based
  • modernize it/smarten it up... new(to me) dash, switches, steering wheel etc. 

 

Cheers :)

Welcome back  :ww:

 

Jubilee clips can be used to restrict steering lock as you have described. Also you might find lots of useful information on Tiggers website, including wiring diagrams.

We are always out and about in the Peak District, feel free to join us any time even if you car is not fixed yet and its just for a cup of tea and a chat at one of our frequent stops for refreshment. Keep an eye on the out and about section for details of when and where we are meeting.

Welcome back!

 

I did have a look "back of house" to see if I could find any trace of your old membership - we can merge them into the new, when we find them, but I suspect it's been on the previous to the previous Boardroom and I'm afraid, not got carried forward at some point in time.

 

As Martyn said, Jubilee clips have been a common mod over the years, or if you want something a little more solid, RS Components and others do split collars in a variety of sizes that bolt on (Allen bolts, so nice and tidy, with no added bulk).

 

There's a handy site here, where you can download a lot of the Westfield manuals and some of the wiring diagrams etc. (It's one of the US distributors)

Welcome back :):ww:

 

I think I found one of your old accounts, that is if you did the Blyton Sunday last year in a 240Z.  If you had other email addresses that you used previously that I could check, that might help.

 

Nothing's changed except I haven't seen the comment 'do a search' for a while :)

 

Thank goodness...and if Dave Eastwood sees anyone use that in a real situation here in the forums, expect a knock at the door and a slap with a wet tuna. :angry:;):laugh:

 

Hopefully we can get you back in the fold as a full member once your 30 day trial period is up. :t-up:

Hi, did you say Derbyshire? great, come and have a brew with us anytime. Although for the next few weekends I seem to be piggy backing on everyone else's events but we do frequent the Peak District, honest.
