Bit rich for me.
Best of luck

I stuck it on there with a stupidly high price just in case there was a rich collector desperately seeking an LS! However I'm hoping for between 3 & 4k.

I'l lower the ebay price soon!

Re: Bloody vibes!

Might be worth getting the compressions checked first Pete - just to be sure there's no issues in that area.

Re: Source of "little 10mm fuel hose clips" or "jubilee" replacements....

We used the same clips on the old VW's - google 111 127 537 A (with or without spaces) or ask for them at your local VW specialist - they secured the fuel filter on any of the old carburetor cars. Here's some at VW Heritage: https://www.vwheritage.com/mk2-golf/mk2-golf-fuel-induction/fuel-hoses-clip...

Re: 2000 year r850r Headlamp help please

Can't help with the separation query, but what do you want to achieve by doing this?

Thanks, Rich Yep, the Mamola rep had them as standard, but they're like rocking horse poo on the used market and cost the same as the moon. On a stick. Copy parts are also difficult to come by these d...
