[Quantum Owners] That was the week that was
A great big nightmare! Think back to Saturday (wibble wobble wibble wobble wibble wobble) In the morning I found the exhaust was trying to fall off due to the middle bracket being AWOL. A quick bodge with some thick wire and I could get to work. - Monday - I ordered a new exhaust and picked it up around 3pm, no time to fit it that day though. - Tuesday - After work it snapped in half so I fitted the new one (but too high so it hit the tank and body, oops). When I ran the engine I discovered that by fixing one loud noise I had uncovered another one. The engine sounded terrible, I checked the oil, oh, bit low, topped it up. Sounds better but still bad. When was the last time I changed the plugs? Ah, 1½ years ago, ok new plugs. Engine sounds much better but exhaust noise is horrible, must be the downpipe (well it IS at least 15 years old). No probs, I’ve got a new one lurking in the garage, but no gasket…….. - Wednesday – After work drop into local Ford garage, they have loads of gaskets but no part numbers to confirm it’s the right one! Order a new one. Get home and change front pads (so THAT’S why the brakes are naff). - Thursday – After work pick up the gasket (I took the downpipe in to be sure) go home and replace it. Sound easy doesn’t it. Only 3 nuts. One stud sheared off, another threatened to, I didn’t try the third! - Friday - Got up Really early to get to Fords 1st thing. Yes they can look at it today but they won’t have it ready for the weekend and it will probably end up needing a new manifold as they don’t drill out bust studs. Oh, that’s Stoneleigh out then, hmm that went down well at home…….. At 4pm I got a phone call, the cars fixed. Huh?? It turns out someone didn’t turn up so my car jumped up the list. It took 3 hours but they managed to get the downpipe off and all 3 studs out (there was enough sticking out). New bits on, it all works and is a lot quieter. YIPPEE. Right then, where’s the tent…..

The upshot is that I have never known the spring rates and the ride is as firm as you are likely to get. Ontop of this the springs do actually "squeak" when driving along, they are slightly rubbing on the shock body section. Anyway that's the history now for the question. I have sourced a pair of MK2 XR2 front legs and by using the top fitments of the MK1 coil overs I have managed to fit them to the car, however does anyone have any idea as to how much lower than standard springs I can go without fouling and also what spring rate I should be looking for to get a reasonably comfortable ride but not too soft? I am running 195 45 15 tyres on OZ wheels with a 10mm spacer to get the tyres to clear the leg.

RE: [Quantum Owners] Re: Coupe roofs
Dave I can see your point about not spending large amounts of money on a car if your looking to sell it but many owners (including myself) have had their cars for many years (in my case 12 years) and intend to keep them for many, many more. Therefore the need for replacement panels is always there. The sunroof in my coupe/saloon/MK2 (whatever you want to call it) had leaked for years until I glued it shut with sealant and covered the edge with duck tape. I did that because you can't buy the sealing strips or a new sunroof of the same size anymore, they are all either long and too thin or too short and fat so in order to fit a new one the roof will have to be filled in then cut out again. That is why Eddie has made a mould for the roof. I like the idea of a solid sunroof like on the MK1 but I have height issues in my car (need to get a bass drum onto the back seat) so unfortunately that won't work for me. Chris G -Original Message- From: quantumowners@googlegroups.com [mailto:quantumown...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Dave the Subbie Sent: 27 September 2010 13:06 To: Quantum Owners Group Subject: [Quantum Owners] Re: Coupe roofs Hi Eddie, When you say Coupe, do you mean the hatchbacks? Mine has problems around the sunroof area, but I don't think it's worth spending the money on. I'll do a localised repair with tissue and make good with filler. For what it's worth, I can't see much point in spending much money on the early cars, as their value is so low. I note that there's a really nice one that appears on Ebay/pistonheads etc for £1500-ish every so often, but never seems to sell. Obviously, the Club's work on 003 is a different case, as I can see its historic value, and it would be nice to see it exhibited somewhere. But that's a one off, and I can't really see anyone seriously paying much more than £600/700 for any of the others, even in good condition. So the repairs are going to be cost-driven in the extreme! For what it's worth, the sunroof on my car doesn't look to be a very good design in any case, using a boot-seal around the lip, with consequent large gaps between the sunroof panel and the roof edge, which must be noisy. The clip doesn't look man-enough to hold such a large panel tight, and the 2-part hinges are a bit domestic. Sorry, but I'd advise anyone who wanted a sunroof in a saloon to fit an after market glass one - much cheaper, and easier, probably a better result, and more sensible in view of the value of the car. In fact, I have a couple in my loft that they can have if they are serious..! Sorry if I sound a bit negative (OK, very negative), but I'm afraid that I don't share your optimism, and it seems like a lot of work for a limited market. Now, a nice-looking dash moulding to replace the XR2 item, a bit like the one in my 2+2, but maybe a bit prettier. I could see a small, but useful market for that?? Dave.

RE: [Quantum Owners] Misc parts, Can't find them!!
The wind noise from the doors is usually cured by a strip of thinish flat stick on rubber stuck to the shell running round where the door hoop closes in. You can get that from trim suppliers like Woolies trim http://www.woolies-trim.co.uk/c-132-sa-strip.aspx They sell the door seals aswell. Fog light switches etc can be found on ebay, brand new aswell as second-hand.

[Quantum Owners] Naughty Q
My Q is in a lot of trouble, it's been caught smoking so now it's grounded! When the engine was cold it ran lumpy at low speed. When the engine got hot it also blew Clouds of white smoke out of the exhaust leaving a trail of thick fog behind it at every roundabout. After nursing it to the in-laws (around the corner from a garage I trust) I opened the bonnet (eventually seeing the engine through the fog) to find that it was peeing oil into a corner of the engine bay. Me thinks the head gasket has blown. I'll be ringing the garage in the morning.

RE: [Quantum Owners] CIE Continuous Enforcement
They probably arrange to pay monthly for their insurance, get the certificate, tax the car then stop paying each month therefore invalidating the insurance. By having the certificate they can 'prove' the have insurance if anyone asks. Chris G -Original Message- From: quantumowners@googlegroups.com [mailto:quantumown...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of russ...@quantum54.freeserve.co.uk Sent: 24 November 2010 15:26 To: Quantum Owners Group Subject: [Quantum Owners] CIE Continuous Enforcement I got information on this from another forum that I am a member of and wondered if everybody on the group, especially those with more that one car were aware of it. This law comes into effect in January 2011 and basically says that if your car is uninsured but still taxed then you may get a fine or have the vehicle impounded. I have checked on the direct gov website and it states that if the vehicle is uninsured then you have to return the tax disk and declare it SORN. I know I have in the past taken a car of the road but left a valid tax disk on as it had little left and I could not see the point in returning it. They are going to check vehicles on the motor insurance database MIB and if it is not insured but still showing as being taxed then the owner will be sent a letter. If the registered owner does not respond then a £100 fixed penalty will be issued, this may then be followed up with a fine of up to £1000 or the vehicle impounded. The purpose of this new law is to reduce the number of uninsured drivers on our roads. Do uninsured drivers generally tax their vehicles? How do they do it without valid insurance?
