Gratuitous *joke opportunity taken:- Forfar 4 , East Fife 5 *Two Ronnies Hello m8 2sav

I got an 'early' Xmas gift, from SWMBO, of £30 Amazon cards [so I can choose something and have it before 25th]. I have popped for a pair of Ring +130 H4 bulbs @15.99 The lights I have are good enough but I think these might be just a little sharper. AutoExpress mag rates them very highly.. we will see! (better) 😅 My Vacuum Gauge plopped thru the post just the other day so some 'tune-up' action is on the horizon.... 2sav

Not quite.... It stayed with its original owner for about 18yr, who gave up driving and passed it on to the service tech at the local dealership... Tech kept it for the remainder but moved it on, as he wanted an auto cos of bad knee... Bit of 'for sale', card in window / on the side of the road, action and it came to me.. [through a serial - old car rescuer] 😇 2sav

..... If you look closely, there is a sticker in the top right of my screen... Sort of 'remember our glories' tag 2sav

..... No, but someone took VERY GOOD care of it for the first 25. Oh, lucky meeeeee 💞 2sav

I'm an *old Toyota enthusiast 😬 Car is 27, I'm 62 Welcome aboard m8 2sav

Well.... Todays the day! 27 Years old [1st reg Dec 06 1991] .... looking forward to many more..... here working today, earning the thanks of my quite poorly daughter... who has a Disabled Badge! 2sav

Yes.... Couldn't be two of me! My Savvy >> Great 'pocket rocket'.... Owned it for 9yr and loved every minute. 🚀 .... what you rolling in?? 2sav

I have just seen this picture on ToyotaNation and am curious.. It is a magnetic reed-switch and, from the description of the assembly of the speedo cable drive, a magnetic drum provides a pulse which is used to drive the 'needle deflection' for speed read out. Are there lots of speedos using an electronic modulator? Why not an old-skool drag/coilspring... Better accuracy eh? 2sav

I have bought a 50MM size Vac gauge, off Amazon £3.70 inc post! Anyone had any success tuning their carb using 'mercury vacuum' as the setting? Some webbie opinions favour the 'true vac', by gauge, over 'setting by ear' - listening to the engine stumble - as an indicator ?? Where do we stand on this ? And which pipe does anyone use for the *steady manifold vac? .... *The pipe for the dizzy advance is 'ported' so not ideal for this. 2sav

..... like EastEnders.... I'll wait for the 'weekend omnibus'.... 2sav

Fair enough 👍 You have NOTHING REMOTELY like this in the tank... You don't have a large securing ring.... You don't have a high pressure/'depress the clip' fuel line connector ?? If you aren't running the car/have the tank open/loose bits kicking about.... Some pictures of your tank 'sender'?? Does you engine look anything like this... ?? 2sav

Of course, you don't actually say, if its a 2C-L Diesel...... Its driven off the cambelt 😉.... And will be under the covers [likely] ^^ *just for some clues* 2sav

..... are you here for help or an argument, m8 ..... 🤐
