Ok. I was wondering a bit whether you had forgotten but was too polite to send you a reminder
Thanks Rossocorsa. You are a little gem.

Ok. Many thanks for that Rossocorsa. You are a great help as always. That link of all the relevant seat cover pages for FL1 cars will be very helpful for future reference. Sorry I haven't done this yet, my fiche reader isn't too good so I'm trying to get it a bit sharper. I won't forget and will do it eventually. |

Hi Peter,
I’m in and booked at the Hare and Hounds for Saturday night. I’ll most likely be leaving Yorkshire early Saturday morning to join you. Chris |

Well that's another part to be bagged and put on the shelf. Steering rack fully overhauled, no discernible play in the rack/pinion, replaced the track rod arm bushes with Mark's polybush kit, new track rod ends, everything cleaned and plated, new boots and a custom made stabilised bracket to take the new Audi shock absorber.
If anyone wants the original, newly plated, shock absorber bracket drop me a PM! Guy |

I have the gasket that comes with the Water pump. Haynes manual states that there is an O ring that should be replaced when you reconnect the lower water rail to the water pump.
It was this O ring size that I was after. Thanks Si |

I think it's a simple gasket that should come with the water pump.

Hello Si, and welcome,
My thoughts are the water pump assuming your leak is towards the rear area of the cover. Take the yellow cover off and you'll see it. There's good access to the pump from under the wheel arch area. The only other possibility is where the top steel coolant pipe mounts to the head, but you'd see that from the top. Best wishes, Nigel |

Hi Ian,
Thanks for the ULEZ tips. I'm not thinking I need to enter the zone anytime soon but if I do I'll have to apply in good time. Kevin, as far as I can work out I'm due one month's refund but no sign of it yet. I'll follow up if not seen in a week or so. Cheers to all, Nigel |

Hi Everyone
I have been recommissioning my 2.0 lancia beta spyder and have a coolant leak. As soon as I add water to the coolant tank it drips out from under the yellow timing belt cover. The leak occurs without starting the engine and leaves the coolant tank completely empty. Just wondering if anyone has encountered this before and had any thoughts as to where the leak could be coming from. Many thanks in advance Si |
