Cheers for the suggestions guys! Ibuprofen: Already hitting this three times a day fir my fingers :( Different bore master cylinder: Works for brakes, but with clutch you have to shift a certain amount of fluid (far more than brakes) as determined by the physical design of the clutch, release lever ...

Any such thing as a servos assisted clutch?
My knees are having a little flare-up right now and the RRC clutch is a bit heavy for me - does anyone know of a servo clutch system I could perhaps nick off a scrapper or something. A long shot I think, but worth a punt before I try to make my own...

Google! :D hmmmmm... Not as easy as I had hoped - maybe a project for darker evenings :) Thanks for the suggestion Dave - it certainly looks like a 555 is the way to go. The nice thing about my proposed setup is that at any time I can merely reconnect the original wire and take any mods out of the ...

Arsing around again - I thought (after reading a post on another forum) that I should make an overrun fuel cut-off for the LPG. Now this is particularly easy since I have MegaJolt which gives outputs based on either revs or manifold pressure. So first I did a proof of concept - I put a switch in lin...

Re: Should I fit rear seat belts?
On the motion sickness question - I am a sufferer and have always found that seeing out helps. Also I have found that a jerky rough ride is far less likely to make me sick than a smooth swaying one. One thing guaranteed to make me feel sick within seconds is reading, so probably best not to give the...

Got to be worth a try! I'll bleed them next time i'ts dry and see if it helps. (although in my case the pedal does go solid, it just moves too far before it gets there...) Like you - before the MoT I had the brakes apart (although didn't need to replace anything) and cleaned and moved the pistons, s...

Thanks for the thoughts Dave: Wheel bearings, disks and pads are all ok (checked last week before and during MoT). Servo - interesting thought, but behaves exactly as it should in the 'start up' test. Brake fluid is two years (but only about 10,000 miles) old and came from a brand new container so I...

RRC Brakes 'problem' - never known anything like it before..
On the first application of the brakes in the morning the pedal goes down further than normal. It still works well in every way, it's just that it goes possibly a centimetre or two further down before it gets firm. It is not spongy - there is just nothing at the top of the travel. Subsequently the b...
