Re: Alarms
Cheers Richard but Ive already got a secret switch (two actually !!). Like the idea of a tracker Andrew, something to look into. Keep the ideas coming but I want something to wake the locals up if a scrote bricks the window.

Alarms
Can anyone recommend a self fitted decent quality alarm, Im not the only one that has suffered with so called professionals crap installations. I know some insurance companies want certificated installation but I am not letting them near my car, and, its not a requirement of my insurance.

Re: East Yorks Club Lotus Excel fest
The nags head, HU17 9SH, on the 2nd sat lunchtime (12 oclock) of each month. Very friendly bunch that usually have a meal together too. A great range of cars turn up, most of which I didn't capture cos I was slightly distracted.
Very impressive bunch of much loved Excels.

Re: Wiper motor...again!
Is the spindle free ? I know you have tested it with the arm off but the spindle itself has a tendancy to seize up and could be causing your problem. An easier check than removing the whole assembly would be to remove the instrument panel leave the wiper arm off and then undo the nut on the motor to...

Re: 912 HC Power curve
I never used to rev mine over 6000 because it didnt seem to improve after that. Ive not seen these graphs before but they do seem to confirm my thoughts.

Re: Can I remove the inlet manifold complete with carbs?
