Scrap it. I've not looked over it yet, but it's a non-runner and the floor is usually rotten on these.

I don't post about my cars on here usually as I don't own an FB.

It's a really solid unit. I was keeping it for myself but if you want it, it's yours.

Don't suppose you have any idea on the size of the oil line fittings on that, MR TOOL? Or anyone, for that matter? Given how expensive they are, I'd prefer not to order the wrong size for mine :oops:

Cheers mate, I'll take it. Just PM me the price and I'll arrange to pop around in the next week or so.

Cheers dude 8-) lol at the switch, I didn't want to be cheeky by hassling you :oops: Mind you, I was swearing a blue streak at it the other day when it went down... and then wouldn't go up again :roll: It's amazing how much rain can blow through an open window in a really short time, given this current horizontal weather we've been having :lol:

Hey, I don't know what size the threads are on the oil cooler lines. Never made any up so never measured it. 21mm spanner on the front one and 23mm spanner on the rear iirc.
Doesn't help you though.

Yeah, it's the size of the thread I need really. The original ones are a giant banjo aren't they? I thought it'd to get some nicer (and simpler) Aeroquip fittings or something. Plus I'm never going to find any original fittings anyway because a) they're almost all rusty and nasty and b) anyone selling them is likely to be selling them with an oil cooler :lol:
