Don't know but I hope to see the needle move up a bit and be in direct ration with the revs. Old gauge barely moved during regular use and started to freak me out on the highway when it would ready 0 or near 0 for prolonged periods of time late last season. I've send the oil out to Blackstone in the meantime. Running the soft line was a huge PITA I'll say that. Maybe I should switch to some sort of braided connection is the results are good and I keep this gauge. Turns out its a very obscure light bulb. K5632. Looking at options now.

Voice of reason?

There was a an aircraft mechanic that recently made a big stink on FB about regular fire extinguishers and using them on Aluminum This made me wonder and look into the matter but there is a lot involved There are ABC/AB/Element/Halon/ etc He says only Halon is allowed in aircraft use and everything else is corrosive on Aluminum and you might as well let the car burn as if you use corrosive items they will destroy the car anyway. Getting into the minutia it gets more complicated as there are many times of elements that are used in extinguishers and ABC only describes their use not their contacts or reactiveness So the summary appears to be there are these types Ammonium phosphate - wet foam sodium bicarbonate - dry chemical element - don't know Halon - safe for aviation due to Aluminum oxidation Big debate is whether the guy is over reacting or not I've reached out to to Element to hear it from the horses mouth whether they are corrosive I currently use first Alert BC one but will likely have Element on order next. Maybe dry chemical baking soda one instead?

This appears to be the same one that just sold on Canada on BaT https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1990-caterham-caterham-7-csr200/

Do you suffer from Upgraditis? A summary of the symptoms of this terrible condition!

New oil pressure gauge looking good Now just have to swap the rest of lights on dash to match the brightness

Track day insurance even if you don't usually buy it. Seriously. Edit: also half tonneau if you got it. Can't comment on other issues

Do you still have the data log software? I also read through your very old Zetec misfire thread and that you had a map that solved that. Is that something you can share? Im clearly reaching for straws here with my misfire issues. I’ve came across a few threads with similar symptoms on forums but there hasn’t been a closed resolution to most.

@catsv7 @DaveD either one of you still active?

When "EFI crap brakes [sic] down" you fix it same way you fix "mechanical crap" when it brakes [sic] down. Its okay to not like it, but its not inherently worse to be using modern technology in vehicles. As far as basic drivetrain reliability modern cars are most efficient and longest lasting than ever. I for one don't want to be hand crank starting my daily driver because I'm afraid of a starter mechanism and a relay and I like to enjoy things like a digital radio and GPS navigation instead of a map to get places.

bump for updates

Headlight swap is giving me headaches. The wiring that should be working as is, isn't and I'm trying to retrace what's what. The carbon fiber headlight buckets dont have a good way to secure the headlight assembly in place like the metal ones did so I'm going to end up using Sikaflex to secure the headlight to the ring and likely drill 2 or 3 holes and tap screws in there to secure them.

If you're talking about the angled overhead shot, I don't believe there are any in that year. I think its from around 2017? or even older. It's 4.5 hours for me too, a highlight of the year every year I make it.

Aww. It would have been cool to have a 620 there.

Going to try my best to be there this year

You won't get a more concise answer from anybody else ^! Croc is one of the few people in the world other than maybe Caterham employees with that much CSR Cat experience.

Out with the old. In with the new. Started doing the headlight move down to lower brackets and already despising the job. With that said the front sway bar has to be unbolted and since my boots were falling apart I already had replacements in stock

Took only about 3 years but now I'm weather resistant! Ordered tonneau in 2020 and between everything else going on was reluctant to be punching holes and making it fit. In the end with the right tools wasn't too bad at all

No idea. That's how it I got it

Here is mine.

Likely Center filler cap was peculiar too..
