[Fuel Tank to Bosch fuel pump hose]

Tim, Impossible to be certain but I have the same filter set up with an increased bore tank outlet and it takes a 3/8” id hose. Use an R9 or R14 spec hose for ethanol resistance and minimised permeability (smell). There have been many previous posts on fuel hose types.

[What manual do I have?]

Hi Alistair,

It looks like you have the multi model BL manual. I have one and it is dated 1977. You appear to be missing the soft back covers, BL / Unipart introduction and the first "contents" page. The final section prefixed 99- covers the various Churchill special tools.

[Surrey rear window fitting????]

Hi Pete,

I have just successfully fitted a new laminated rear screen with a "too long" Moss rubber. As Mick said,
 you need the excess in the lower corners.

In my case the Moss rubber came with the label below. The manufacturer's join was at the top.

Andy, Not that local to you, but TRGB in Cambridgeshire have a chassis jig and do such work.

[Rocker arm ratio]

Hi John, 

outside of ball with inner jaw square to shaft drilling.  From what I’ve seen on various engines I’ve pulled apart , early 2.5pi, TR5, TR250 have single oil drilling adjacent to adjuster, later cars, but I can’t say from when , extra drilling on top of rocker. The one in the picture has the single drilling and I’m afraid I only have the one. I’ve also seen big variations in rocker pad position over the valve tip with the modern repro rockers and clash of pushrods to head casting as mentioned earlier.

[Rocker arm ratio]

Hi John,

If it helps here is the dimension on a NOS BL rocker arm supplied by Chris Witor a few years ago.

I recently fitted a Pilkington screen with a screen rubber from TRGB - went in no problem.

[Bosch Fuel Pump - Current Model No]

Bosch 910 used to be supplied as part of Prestige Injection kit. I fitted this to my TR5 is 2007 and no problems so far!

I am not sure this pump is still available - as said previously, suppliers seem to be using Sytec alternatives these days.

[HELP PLEASE]

Hi John, 

Re positioning of the channel - these may help. the black marker lines coincide with the edges of the channel before removed to change glass.

[PI Pedestal, Distributer, Metering Unit installation and timing]

Andy,

The drive slot is OK - one tooth either way will just give a different position for your rotor arm and so a different position of the distributor body when points (?) are opening no. 1 firing. If the distributor body is too far clockwise the tacho cable can restrict rotation. Why not just sit the distributor onto the slot and see where the body ends up with rotor pointing at no.1 contact in dizzy cap?

[Rear Wing to B Post Fit]

Hi 

I’m not with the car at the moment, there is a small clearance gap but 1/4” - not sure?  If the wing fits well , I’d move on - there will be other challenges!
Ian

[Rear Wing to B Post Fit]

Hi

No sealant is used on the front face of Bpost where rear wing wraps around. The spotwelded flange of the b post is visible. Non setting sealant on the rear of the B post where the rear wing bolts up is a good idea to keep the weather out. 
Picture may help.

Hi Dave , 

You have the handbrake levers on the backplate the facing the wrong way. Easy fix.

Graham,

These might help; Originally attached with spotwelds on all flanges with possibly some brazing where the front of the inner wing drain channel sits on top of the headlamp panel.
