The reply I had to my email was from someone called Jordan

He just said that he'd love to have a quick chat with me on the phone about my car

Quick chat I thought that was a rather odd thing to say

Lighten up Peter. If you worked in my office you'd find out what abuse was and Paul has not abused you. I think that more than enough has been said on this thread Alex I know the answer to my original question now There is no Club conventional method for torqueing a dizzy It seems that I may possib...

Not at all funny so far as I am concerned

Not one of those quotes are me calling you names! If you think that's name calling then i'm sorry, but i speak my mind and this entire thread is a farce, to me it's a joke even talking about torqueing a dizzy bolt, but whatever. All of those quotes are abusive & offensive Paul I am a gentleman ...

Well said young man

"starts stupid threads purely for conflict"

I gave you a solution Your so called "solution" is totally impracticable as you should know perfectly well If not then I will put you straight One member who has spoken a great deal of sense on this thread is Chris (Oukie) What will a prospective new member think, reading all your ranting...

Here we are again :roll: Another snipe endlessly at Peter & blame it all on Peter thread :? The sniping coming predominantly from one source All I wanted to know in the first place is whether there is a method of torqueing down the distributer on a Mk1 without taking the cap off Seems not then :-k

Nothing wrong with my spelling Alex

You misunderstood the play on words

It's a distributor bolt. :| Would you torque up oil pump bolts? I'm umming and rrr-ing about that at the moment... Provided you know the correct setting & also provided your wrench is capable of being set down to a low enough setting, then the answer is simple YES :D You have gone off topic wit...

I hope you do get to enjoy driving the car before it goes on sale Imran

Your family comes first of course

Far more important than any car

Hope you're gonna keep those wheels nice & clean when you start using the car Imran :) Well looks like once the car is finished it will be on sale. New owner would need to keep the wheels clean. :( Oh dear, that's sad :( Not suitable as a family car of course, now you have your little person Wi...

I'm quite relaxed about most people being out of step with me on the issue of the distributer setbolts

I'll carry on doing what I do

Some others may want to use their grannie's old Whitworth open ended

I emailed them & had a message back asking for my phone number

Several days have passed & havn't been called

Anyroad up if it's Bernie I don't want to know

Tested the resistance of the HT leads They are all well within the spec given in BGB so shall not need to replace them I think However, two of the poles in the cap look corroded & I had to push quite hard & scratch with the meter probe to obtain a circuit through the HT lead So a new distrib...

Yes I'll certainly be cracking on Paul

Hopefully I'll get some positive responses to my original post in contrast to the negative ones

One thing I will own up to :

I'm very very determined & persistent

You ought to know that by now surely

I already have a selection of torque wrenches thank you Paul Don't need any funny contraptions made up of levers & weights As said above I have used a small one to torque the distributer setbolts to 20 Nm I have a particular reason for wanting to tighten them to the specified torque Oh & by ...

Hope you're gonna keep those wheels nice & clean when you start using the car Imran

Must say they don't look over fiddly to clean though

If folk don't want to tighten nut/bolts with a torque wrench that's OK with me

It's up to the individual

Abusive personal comment is another matter altogether Alex
