910 PTFE Lined Aramid Braided Lightweight Racing Hose is the only hose that I would use for a fuel line. It is not affected by ethanol.

I have just built and delivered a new SV 420r to a customer. It shares its garage with an 18 Gt3. Perfect pairing?

ID, AN dash 3 = 3/16 ID, AN dash 4= 1/4. I beg to differ but clutch lines should be dash 4, displaces more fluid.

You are using a dash 4 clutch hose? Brake line is dash 3.

Your clutch disc is most probably frozen to the flywheel. 2 options. Start the car and make sure it gets up to operating temp. Turn off engine, put in gear and start on key and drive off, it will loosen off eventually. Or do the same jack up rear end, with car in gear and running. Drop onto the ground and the shock will free off the disc plate. M/C 5/8", slave 3/4.

Where can I get a nose cone for a Series 2, Lotus 7?
fotsyr replied to Bill's topic in General Sevens Discussion
All S2 Sevens had a short bonnet that covered the thermostat housing and a longer top section of the nose.. All Caterhams had a longer bonnet, allowing access to the thermostat housing and a shorter top section of the nose. -
Elan S1 mount from Bean or Rd.

I believe its a standard Caterham yellow. Only the rest of the car was painted a special colour, chosen by Mrs Jane Nearn. chris

Replacing entire front end of Caterham and need some guidance
fotsyr replied to Jonathan Cort's topic in Build Threads
I did a similar repair about 25 years ago. Carefully pulled out the side skin, installed new front end and use the side skin as a jig. Used a chassis plate to ensure all even.
