RE: [Quantum Owners] H4 on E-bay

2012-11-25 Thread Hamish Freeman 
It appears that the seller is in Littlehampton, not far from me.  Not Robert
Greig then unless he has moved!  The car is being sold to build an NG!.

I converted that one from a 1.6 Zetec to the 2.0 Zetec for Eammon Wren.
I thought Robert Greig bought it off him but it doesn't look like Robert
selling it.

I have a load of pictures of the engine conversion if anybody here buys it.

Re: [Quantum Owners] 2+2 engine will not start when hot

2012-11-25 Thread Peter Brown 
Thanks guys for the help.

I have not noticed this recently, probably the cold weather is helping! In 
addition I found that the wire between starter motor and alternator had 
worn through at one part and was touching the metal frame, so the battery 
cannot have been delivering charge or recharging as effectively as it 
should.

I'll bear the mk3 starter in mind and/or a heat shield should I need to 
replace the current starter.
