Re: [Quantum Owners] 2+2 Zetec conversion

[Russell Willcox]

Just for interest of those of us doing engine conversions. I was 
informed by somebody at Stoneleigh that the DVLA are cracking down on 
this and you must now be able to prove where the engine came from i.e. 
what the original car was. I don't know how true this is but thought I 
would mention it. Luckily I have the car that my diesel came from so 
hopefully will not be a problem.

260hp 2+2... WOW!! mine is lively with a 1.4 and 62hp, yours must be

are not a major issue. I don't know what the donor car was as the 
engine was bought from someone who bought it for a Q. I have seen your

All the mods required have been covered in this group in the past, 
they may also be in the FAQ on the club web site.
I presume you've seen my web site www.quantums.info 
, some pictures on there of a Zetec in a 
2+2 plus another page on fitting a Zetec in a Mk2 Fiesta.


Main things are:
Spaceframe mods to clear crank pulley, top of cylinder head and 
possibly exhaust downpipe.

Modification of the CVH top engine mounting bracket to fit the Zetec.
Change to injection fuel tank or external swirl pot with high pressure 
fuel pump.

Additions to the wiring.
Depending on the engine donor don't forget about the PATS anti theft 
system..


What car is the engine coming from ?

I've got standard XR2 drums on the rear of my 260bhp ZVH turbo 2+2 but 
i've Willwood 4 pot calipers on the front.
There is no weight on the rear of a 2+2 so i don't think upgrading the 
rear brakes will help.

As I was just finishing my H4 at the time, I was not impressed - at

Re: [Quantum Owners] PAINT

[Russell Willcox]

I would always go for two pack as it is a much more durable paint and 
would steer well clear of basecoat and laquer. For some reason
on plastic cars the laquer seems to lose adhesion to the underlying 
basecoat and flakes off. I have had 2 cars like this and have seen a lot 
of Lotus' the same. Maybe it is bad prep but I would play safe and chose 
a flat colour in 2 pack.

What is the optimal time between the basecoat and lacquer? I guess

coats.

Thses day's basecoat colours are polyester based or waterbourne, its
time left between basecoat application and topcost 2K lacquer  which
causes delamintion in metalic finishes. I had several kits painted

Re: [Quantum Owners] TOW bar registration help needed

[Russell Willcox]

I have just got my V5 for the 2+2 after IVA, it only took them 11 months 
to issue it. It does not have any towing weights on it at all. I have used
my saloon to tow my Dandy trailer tent on a couple of occasions. I made 
the towbar myself and have reinforced all the mounting points so I

trust it.

There are no towing weights on the saloon V5 either, or my Audi A4 or 
the Fiesta that I broke recently.

Hi all,
Can everybody have a look at their V5 and see if there's any info

saloon and 2+2)?
I'm having difficulties having my towbar registerd , although I
presented the factory folder of 1993 to our RDW (DVLA), but that's not
quite enough. They just need some kind of "official evidence" that
there was a car fitted with a towbar, preferably by Quantum or DVLA.
At the mo I may tow 400kg unbraked, 0 (yes: zero)kg braked. Doesn''t
make much sense, does it? But it's the law and we need to bend it.
Has anyone ever bought a towbar from QSC in the past with a letter,
confiming the delivery and/or fitting instructions? Anything?
Please help and have a look, much appreciated,

Many thanks

Hopefully someone will be able to help me resolve the above issues.

even before the open day i had identified straightening  the catches
out as a way to stop the header rail on the hood from sticking up at

that the latches latch onto and hence move them slightly lower down,
if that makes sense?

So my big questions are

Are every one else’s catches straight?
And is there any reason why mine are bent before i whip them off and

Also the correct spanner size for the rear brake cylinder mounting

they seem loose with a 10 mm spanner!  I am having to soak them in

Ford have a strict code relating to year of manufacture - The Burton

My 1800  Zetec has no number on it whatsoever!  It came via Old Q as a
Kit-in-a-box with a separate engine plate from Ford Industrial 
Division.  My

2.0 DOHC for the Beauford had a very distinct mark on the timing cover,
which of course was not the one in the V5C for the donor.  This caused me
much hassle in getting it properly registered prior to IVA as the 
donor V5C
was required as proof of ownership.  The log book went back and forth 
about

three times before they got it right and then they put the wrong chassis
number in the Beauford V5C, which did not come to notice until the first
MOT!  A touch of too much work for too few people at DVLA methinks!

Hi,

Yes – I cut a hole the ”exact” size of the drawbar in the bumper. 
This required some judicious marking out followed by a pilot hole

in the middle of the area of the proposed aperture.  Remember the
old adage ”measure twice (or more!) and cut only once” to avoid an
unsightly gaping hole around the drawbar.  It is possible to
project the edge of the drawbar back onto the inside of the bumper
with a piece of flat steel held inside the flange and this helps a
lot..  It is the exact height that takes a bit of judgement but
the advice here is to assemble the drawbar without the bumper and
reference its position off something that will be accessible once
the bumper is in place.  Apologies if this is “teaching you to
suck eggs” but I have seen some really bad examples in the past
from thse who should know better.

The reason I changed the drawbar was to avoid it being too high
and too far away from the car as the drawbar holes on mine were 12
mm, a challenge to drill with a low powered drill whilst my Bosch
Li-Ion drill tends to snap 10 mm drills if they snag and will not
accept 12 mm.

Good luck!

The spacing

was highly fortuitous in that it did not encroach on the inner

company each week they could almost relaunch the UK small builders car market as is 
his power with petrolheads.
One guy complained to me saying that the price of my car was to high saying he had 
got one for £600 , i said well done . Im in no rush to sell my car so i guess im in 
a strong selling position , but looking around the market i really don't why kitcars 
should be going down in value so much even good versions as it not like are fords 
vauxhalls etc and they are thousands of the same one kicking around. All i can think 
is that it must be down to the people selling them. Also now theres another quantum 
owner up here i may keep it and we could go for 2 car rallies ,3 if we let my 
brother come along in his silva fury."


The owner also stiffed my asking for a dashboard to be flocked, as I had a 
spare I said I would do that and then swap it with his. He never turned up to 
collect!!

Much cheaper than a re spray

I used 1 pack enamel from a local supplier called Autoscot. I can't remember 
the actual paint manufacturer but will look out the tin and let you know. The 
colour was Cadmium Yellow. I used a roller for the majority but got a few spray 
cans made up for awkward areas like the door checks. It's horrible stuff to 
spray though as the offspray stays wet and gets everywhere you don't want it.

As a home job, I was happy with the results but it's nowhere near as good as a 
professional spray job. I call it a ten foot paint job - as long as you are 
over 10 feet away it looks good. Enamel tends to chip as well, so there are now 
some chips on the front but I'm still glad I did it.

I think I would go for a vinyl wrap next time but that's a whole new subject.

   Saw it - Well done.
   I've been an advocate of brush painting GRP, but everybody seems to want to 
go with spraying.
   I'd be interested on your thoughts. Who's paint did you use? I contacted 
International paints, who considered for a car my plans to brush paint rather 
than roller were a good idea. Their guidance to roller, then tip-off with brush 
is ideal for larger items (such as a yatch) though.
   I've painted a car before, using single-pack polyurethane alkyd, and 
although the finish was great the paint went dull after a few months! I'll 
certainly won't be using that again. The single pack can't be flatted down 
either - I believe the 2 pack can.
   I have to get a paint mixed up to match the Oxford Blue of my Q saloon so that I can 
brush paint my "Quantum Sleep" matching folding caravan - The only place I can 
find which will mix a matching paint for brushing is Witham Paints (unless you can advise)

Re: [Quantum Owners] Endura DE into saloon

[Russell Willcox]

Tony,
The gearbox end looks like it is in the right place. I will check 
the oil filter on my engine tomorrow and let you know what it is like.


Russell

Found a spare day to have another go at dropping the Endura engine
into the Saloon.
I was hoping that I'd done enough to get it bolted in, but I'm blowed
if I can see how it's ever going to fit!


I've put some pics on photobucket if anybody wants to see them and
hopefully suggest alternatives.

http://s1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff506/Mugwump_9mm/Endura%20engine%20fitting%20-%20Q%20Saloon/



First thought is that the engine might be too high.
I can't remember whether the end of the gearbox on the passenger side
should be below the fibreglass?
Have I missed some spacers out which would lower the engine carrier
(and engine)?
That would give me up to an extra inch or two to play with, which
would be most welcome!


The driver's side of the engine needs to move backwards about an inch,
but that puts the oil filter through the steering rack.
Again, lowering the engine would help.  But also, it looks like there
might be a spacer plate in there, which might be removable.
Anybody know for sure?

Moving it backwards would also make the crank pulley have a negative
clearance with the suspension turret - this would also be avoided if
the engine were lower.


Finally, getting a pipe onto the inlet manifold is going to be fun, it
would have to go through the driver's side suspension turret.
I can probably shorten the end of the manifold, re-shape the end and
make up a metal air pipe, but it won't be pretty.


I also had to remove the driver's side engine mount completely from
the engine.  It's all one huge piece of cast iron which includes the
alternator mounting, and it too was interfering with the turret.
Since the alternator needs to be moved, I'll be able to make up a
simpler/lighter engine mount.

TonyV.

Hi everyone
I really want to get some new seats for my quantum turbo
coupe on a
1.6 fiesta rs. I have seen some nice bucket seats that
recline on ebay
and am genuinely considering buying them because my recaro
seats are
not in a good condition. My only issue is, is what to do
with the rear
seats? as soon as i put some nice new leather seats in the
front the
back will look very outdated. Does anyone know some nice
rear leather
seats or can advise me on what to do? not a big fan of seat
covers but
would consider an upholstery.
Thanks in advance

Re: [Quantum Owners] How to identify a CVH engine?

[Russell Willcox]

It could possibly be a Ferriday engine. I have one in my 2+2 and that 
has 2.0 cast into the block.

They were based on a Sierra block with the XR2 head.

Hi All,

General Knowledge, Starter for 10:

I've just bought a red Coupe, no Q-061, nominally for spares, but it
may get fixed up some day. Anyway, the seller thought it had a 2.0 CVH
engine in it, but I'm not sure. The question is how can I tell easily?

I know that Quantum did have access to US-spec 2.0 engines, as they
were mentioned in some brochures, and in the Top Gear article on the
2+2. But do I have one?

The seller based his assumption on the fact that the 1600 sump gasket
didn't fit, only the one from the 1.8 Sierra, and that the block has
"20" cast into the front face, just below the middle two exhaust
ports. For what it's worth, it has a BP285 cam fitted and a
rectangular-top Weber, like the one on the early XR2s. The head has
the cross-hatch marks cast into it, like the Sierra head. The
distributor and thermostat housing are as per Fiesta, and there is no
Timing Belt Cover.

Now, I have a couple of Sierra 1.8 engines in the shed, and one of
them has "27" cast into the block, in the same place as the "20" on
this one. So I suspect that is just a batch mark. Personally, I
suspect it's a Sierra unit that someone has converted to FWD and,
maybe done some tuning on. I've heard it running, but never driven it,
so it's hard to say what sort of power it has.

So, is there any easy way that I can tell what it is? I know the 1.8
is taller than the 1.6, but what about the 2.0? Are there any
distinctive differences between the US and UK engines? Do the casting
marks mean anything? Will the Engine No. tell me anything?

I know I can take the head off and know for sure, but it's cold and I
have a lot of other things to do. Any ideas, anyone, please?

Thanks,

Dave.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: How to identify a CVH engine?

[Russell Willcox]

If I remember the pistons are out of something else (Rover?) with 
pockets machined to clear the valves but I could be wrong. As I said 
mine has 2.0 cast into the block but I always thought the CC was 1818.

I'm pretty sure the oil filter is in the normal CVH place. If he used
a 1.8 Sierra sump gasket, I would have thought that wouldn't fit a
ZVH?

I did wonder about taking the plugs out turning one cylinder to TDC,
topping it up with oil through the plug hole, then turning it to BDC
and seeing how much more it took, as a crude way of measuring the cc
without taking the head off. Would be a bit messy syphoning it out
again, but would save a head gasket and set of stretch bolts. In fact,
if it did turn out to be a US engine, the gasket and bolt set might
take a little sourcing.

I wonder if I could tell anything from looking through the plug holes
at the piston crowns. The Sierra's are very different to the 1.6's.
Any ideas what the US ones looked like?

I have loads of receipts, including the original receipts for the kit,
and there's no mention of the engine, so I assume this is a later
addition. It's still registered as a 1.6. Is the car known to the
club? Red Coupe, black bonnet, E186EHD? Awfully tatty, but lots of
fancy bits, so was obviously someone's pride and joy when built.

Thanks for the help

Dave.

The engine capacity is normally where you say the 20 is on the front of

The Sierra block i had said 1.8 there.
The early FWD CVH heads also had the cross hatch marks.

The easy way to tell if it's really a CVH rather than a ZVH (Zetc block,
CVH head), where is the oil filter.
If it's on the back of the block under then inlet manifold then it's a
CVH, if it's hung off the oil pump at the bottom corner of the engine
then it's a ZVH.

Re: [Quantum Owners] My Mystery CVH

[Russell Willcox]

Dave,
Still sounds like the Ferriday to me. They have cutouts in the 
pistons and the standard XR2 head gasket and timing belt is used along 
with stretch bolts. If you email Mike at Ferriday Engineering 
m...@ferriday.co.uk  he may be able to tell 
you waht the parts are off and hopefully identify it as one of his.


If you look on his website there is a section on there for the CVH.

Just taken the head off the CVH from my latest acquisition and the
mystery deepens. As you will recall, the previous owner thought it was
a 2.0 and knew it had some fancy bits fitted, but wasn't sure of the
details. Well, I had to have a look didn't I...?

Bore is 83mm, Stroke is 88mm, which, I believe, is the same as the
1905cc American engine. However, it has the 81SM6090 Head (with the
Cross-Hatching that is supposedly so desirable), and the block seems
to be the 1.6 height, not the 1.8, as the 1.6 cam belt cover fits,
which it doesn't on the Sierra block. "E8EE", "AA" and "9E25" are cast
into the block.

Pistons are 'Hemi' type, with large cutouts cast in them for valves
"3019P", "9-6" and "0.75mm" marked in the crowns. The head appears to
have 43mm inlet valves fitted. Haven't taken the valves out, so can't
accurately measure them, but they aren't 42 (standard) or 45mm. Might
be 42.6 or might be 43.5. Ports look to have been modified, and the
cam is a Piper BP285.

Was running a Weber DFT carb and a 4-2-1 manifold into a standard
exhaust. Unfortunately, I never actually drove the thing as it was out
of MoT. Was misfiring badly, but turned out to have a u/s plug lead
and a cracked coil terminal, so that should be easy to fix.

Anyway, I'm interested to hear any ideas as to the origin of the
engine, as I'm going to need some spares for it. At a minimum, I need
a head gasket set and stretch bolts. Plan at the moment is a de-coke
and re-assembly, ready to go into the 2+2, either using the Weber, or
a set of R6 bike carbs that came with it.

So, if any of you can provide any information, based on the above,
I'll be very grateful.

Thanks,

Dave.

Mind you we could all do with doing our bit to promote the cars as
much as possible, I’m shocked to learn that Quantum’s are being pulled
apart to put manky old fiestas back on the road,
Ok so no need for us all to become media whores or anything like that
but the odd few bits in magazines and such like can only serve to
create interest and provided we concentrate on the positives we should
achieve our main objective – to raise awareness of the club and the
cars.

On this note, (and I’m not trying to distract away from topic - QMOPS
in the magazine)I have a cunning plan where we could all lend a hand
to Eddie when he gets the new Quantum website up and running, since im
forever having people asking me what the car is (even when it had 3ft
long wording down the side saying what it was) and no doubt many
others I don’t know about while I’m parked up, and o know im not the
only one who gets this – I think we all do,
so a simple sticker made up with a memorable web address for  the new
website displayed somewhere on the car (rear quarter window – number
plate – boot lid etc.) will aid admirers in identifying the car and to
be directed to the correct  source to by a new one if they wish, id
happily display one on mine if the idea gets the thumbs up

anyway just a thought

"Are you embarking on a heroic restoration? We'd like to know what
you're getting up to in your garage or workshop with the view of
possibly publishing some of them, so if you'd like the chance to

I thought of QMOPS because our cars are now older than some of the
ones they've featured and we've also got rarity on our side. I
always felt that the factory-build cars were the Wooldridge's
effort to get into the same kind of league as TVR, Lotus, Gordon
Keeble, Reliant and so on (all of which have been featured at some
point).

ive removed the pop rivets and P clips that held the brake pipes on,

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o192/jindal/DSC02331.jpg

  they didn't fit too well and the pop rivets didn't go through the
bulkhead so only served to swell out the fiberglass and let water and
dirt in, evidenced by the dirt that had crept within the hole around
the rivet, i chamferd the holes to remove the contaminated fiberglass
and gelcoted from the outside with a thin layer

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o192/jindal/DSC02333.jpg

then filled the rear with slow set araldite to seal the join and
hopefully put a bit more strength back in

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o192/jindal/DSC02336.jpg

the tape is just to stop it running out and keep it smooth

cut out the first hole for my cable glands, i found a cone step drill
very handy for enlarging holes (I'm using one of my extra? servo mount
holes that were drilled but unused?) since they locate and don't
wander about ripping the gel coat like normal twist drills, only thing
to do is drill both sides sins the steps are shallow,

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o192/jindal/DSC02332.jpg

tapped it out to the right size

and sealed the fiberglass with araldite resin and wound the gland in

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o192/jindal/DSC02335.jpg

then gave a wipe round the inside with more resin just to be sure,
these should be very water proof now, this one will be for the wiper
motor

as for the brake pipes, I'm not too sure how I'm going to secure the P
clips, I'm not going to use pop rivets fore sure, i may drill a few
holes and tap a thread then wind in a stainless stud with araldite to
seal unless anyone knows a batter way?

The other problem that can happen with the electric windows is if they

Yes you're right the DMTL is for a Golf I think but if you have the

From memory it needed a XR2 manifold.

There were 2 carbs on the XR2's, the early square top carb with a 
manual choke and the later round top carb with a auto choke.
It used to be easy to get conversion kits to convert the later carb to 
manual choke but i guess theres not much demand for them now.

Dear All,

I am still researching the stainless steel fuel tank
fabrication.  The local guys can definitely make them and I
need to provide an old tank as a pattern then they can be done
within a couple of weeks.  I can do that but wanted to tap the
club collective brain for info.  We have a 2+2 & a Coupe Mark
2.  I have only played with the 2+2 tank so far.  It has a
standard XR2 1989 type fuel tank.  I assume the coupe tank is
the same (i.e. a standard Fiesta XR2 tank)  Is it?  I know that
some of the other fiesta tanks look the same initially but have
the connections in different places so are not interchangeable.

Also I assume that a built in swirl-pot would be welcomed by
all regardless of the engine in your car. Is that so?

Anyone got experience with a suitable after market fuel
contents sender?  I think mine has died and this is a good time
to fit a new one.

I will try and get some price info in a few weeks but I do know
that they will be cheaper in larger numbers.  Eddie may want a
few but if you are interested say this year please think about
it and maybe we can put in a decent size order to everyone's
advantage.

A big thank you to all the members who turned up to support the club 
today.  The big news from the AGM is that there have been a few 
changes on the committee.  Andy Heatons started the AGM by asking the 
club members to vote in a new club secretary to fill the vacant role, 
allowing minutes to be taken. Faye Jeffs was duly voted into this role.


The remainder if the committee where happy to remain in their existing 
roles, and where all voted back in. Mike Balance will be joining 
Russell Wilcox and myself looking after the website, and the big news 
is that Andy Heaton has stepped into a vice-chair role, with myself 
being voted in to chair.


More updates to follow on the club website later thus week.

Dear All,

Many thanks to everyone who has replied to my post - It has been very
informative and certainly gives me a lot to think about and to start
looking into.

If I decide to go ahead with the project I shall definitely keep
everyone up to speed with my progress (or not as the case may be!)

Thanks again and if there are any other possible rwd conversions, I
would be interested to know.

On a separate subject, during the 15 years or so that I've been a
member of the Quantum Owners club, I've always hoped that a North of
England group might be set up but as yet, I don't believe there is
one. Does anyone who is in the inner workings of the QOC happen to
know the exact number of Quantum owners located within certain
regions? If so, I wonder if it would be an idea to contact members in
regions which don't have local groups to see if they would be
interested in having some regular get together's? At least if I knew
there were several others within the Teesside area who were interested
in starting a group, we could all get in touch, especially as Croft
circuit is within our region :-)

Thanks again for everyone's help and information.

Cheers,

Keith

I believe the MX5 has a complete separate chassis as at this years kit
car show there was a company doing an aerial atom style body conversion
for the MX56 and they pretty much just lifted off the MX5 body and used
the chassis complete.
If it's a suitable size you could maybe use it complete.
But then, why not just by an MX5.

Hi Keith
I think the MX5 rear axel will be very close to fitting on width of
the 2+2
One of the advantages is that the axel from the MX5 is fitted into a
sub frame that will require the floor of the 2+2 to be altered. You
must watch this area VERY carefully as this area has a box section
above (between the boot and cabin) that is needed for structural
rigidity.
The tunnel down the centre of the car will be relatively easy to
enlarge to accept a drive shaft, however, the bulkhead is another area
that will need careful thought as it takes the loads from the frame at
the front.
I would recomend altering the shell in composite rather than making
metal frames to go in the car to accept the rea axel etc as you may
bolt these frames into areas that are not stressed for the loads that
will be applied.
You also need to check this, but I have been advised that the MX5 rear
axel will take upto 250BHP before needing upgrades. As I say, I have
been advised of that but I am not sure how accurate this is. Hopefully
someone here may know more.
Good luck with this project though. Sounds really good.

Hi,
I built my 2+2 back in 1998 and am now thinking of a major re-build.
Does anyone have any experience or know anyone who has attempted to
convert their 2+2 into rear wheel drive?
I remember many years ago someone converted theirs into 4wd, I think
using an old Fiat Panda but I am after something a bit more sporty as
a basis, possibly a Mazda MX5 or something like that.
If anyone can offer any advice, I would be most grateful.

I visited a company called Portsmouth Fibreglass to get some more GRP

This is just a thought and no more.

Hi Eddie.
May I second Jim's condolences both for dynamic mouldings, and
quantum.  May I suggest that stock and small mouldings can be
displaced amongst the qoc members, obviously this will need
careful inventory etc. Do you have any idea of square meters you /

It is with the utmost sadness that I write this today.
The 31st July will see my last day here at Unit C1 Backfield Farm
Trd Est.
Those of you at Stoneligh Kit Car show AGM may well recall that I
was very upbeat, as I had many months of work ahead of me. Well
since then, the work has dropped away at such speed, I find myself
now running out of work and unable to pay myself and thus support
my family. I can not jeopardise the welfare of my wife and children.
It would seem that the economic climate has bitten very hard, and
we have experienced potential clients putting a stop to their
projects with Dynamic Mouldings.
Quantum Kit Cars has been housed in the same unit here, in order
to protect the stock and moulds, so that I could bring the company
back up once I had more staff. This is NOT going to happen. With
this in mind I have to retract back to my garage at home with
Dynamic Mouldings in order to be able to look after our cars. (
yes, even through this I am still dedicated to the cars we own )
I am totally unable to keep Quantum as I will just not have the
room to keep all of the moulds etc.
I can and will assure you, that I am trying to work with the
comittee to see if we can do anything to save it.
Please accept my sincer appologies for this situation. I have
worked very hard over the last few years, but I find myself unable
to beat the economic climate that we find ourselves in.

Eddie

it runs really well. I'm afraid I don't have much

replaced the cambelt, oil, plugs, 4 tyres and upgraded the brake

Re: [Quantum Owners] exhaust for 2+2

[Russell Willcox]

Calvin,
 The 2+2 is a standard XR2 exhaust, sometimes it has to be bent 
slightly near the gearchange for clearance purposes. It is probably 
worth keeping an eye out for a stainless Scorpion or Magnex if you are 
going to keep the car.

Pumping the pedal before I start the engine, then start the engine? I also get

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Ebay auction cancelation charges.

[Russell Willcox]

I can understand why they are doing this and in some ways I agree as I 
have had auctions pulled from under me as the highest bidder and it is 
annoying to say the least.


However there are certainly other areas where they are failing. As an 
example I bought a car recently and when I went to collect it the rear 
bumper had been scraped in a car park that day, it wasn't there on the 
pictures so was probably true. I negotiated a reduction in price and was 
semi happy as the car was definitely not in A1 condition as it was 
described, but I purchased it anyway so that is down to me.


A few days later I received a request from the seller via an Ebay case 
saying that he wanted to cancel the transaction listing the reason as :


hello Russell,would you mind if i cancelled the ebay transaction,its 
nothing dodgy,i'm just trying to get some money back for what i lost on 
the scratch/scuff,if you allow it i will get some of my fees back, 
thanks, 


You then have so long to agree or not and if you say nothing the 
transaction is cancelled. In the meantime I had left neutral feedback 
stating the car was not as described and they had the evidence of what 
the seller was doing to get his fees back in the case that was opened, I 
did not respond to the case so it was closed in the seller's favour and 
he got his fees back even though the car was sold through Ebay.


So they still have a lot of tightening up to do.

It grates a bit when you see an ad where the seller is obviously

eg a car for
1p, and when you read the ad they say if you bid you'll get a dustcap,

Always the way with ebay

What if you do genuinely have your car nicked when up for sale?
About 6 years ago I was unlucky enough to crash a car that I had for
sale on ebay with about 3 days to go and bids up to £1200 (I can laugh
about it now ….. just) consequently I had to cancel the auction and
call the scrap man,
so in this instance I would be £120 out of pocket to add insult to

I guess this is to close the loophole where people list an item and

A valeter at a company I used to work for always used a waffle type

Re: [Quantum Owners] Boss for a steering wheel on a Quantum 2+2

Chris,
Most steering wheels are pretty standard now with 6 bolts I believe 
so you should be able to use a Mountney M type, Raid, Momo etc. The 
older mountney wheels had a larger diameter, plus the new bosses are all 
collapsible in the event of an accident.


Is that what you meant?

Chris,
The things to bear in mind are that you need to be able to see the 
clocks through the steering wheel and the smaller the diameter the 
harder it is to steer if you do not have power steering. The last one I 
bought was 340mm.

Hamish,
Glad Trish and yourself made it home safely and I hope you are both well.

I too had a coolant leak in the Xtreme, which saw me being recovered home

from Aylesbury, as the heater matrix looks to be leaking.  I have 2 foot
wells covered in anti-freeze.  Not long to fix this before the Wales tour.

We would like to add our Thanks to all those who worked so hard to make
this year’s Stoneleigh another great success.



Our return journey was to say the least frustrating!  Yesterday we found
that the whole of the area 10 miles in any direction around Warwick was
in gridlock, mostly because the police were on point duty on the A46/M40
interchange trying hard to avoid back-ups on the motorway but actually
causing a 5 mile tail back through Warwick and any other route we tried.
Certainly a day to throw away the GPS as it seemed to have a magnetic
attraction towards snarl-ups - probably because everyone else’s GPS
systems were trying to use the same route.  It seemed that all the major
roads were solid and it took 5 hours to get to Marlborough, a journey of
usually about 1 hour!



Today I thought I might just check that everything had survived the
roasting in the traffic jams – Oil: OK, Brake fluid: OK, Power steering
Oil: OK; hey wait a minute – No water in the header tank!  No leak
was evident and there was no evidence of any water under the car.  A
full big kettle of water later we had water in the header and decided to
chance it back.  It is surprising how fast one can go on nothing more
than ¼ throttle all the way home to keep the temperature gauge almost on
its lower stop.  The fuel economy was incredible; made up for
yesterday’s maxi swallowing effort for no distance.  We just got back
home with no apparent loss of water and I was talking to the neighbours
with the engine idling when the leak finally decided to show itself –
all over the driveway!  It appears that the side junction on the pipe
that goes between the pump and the rad had decided to fail – underneath
so it could not be seen – and was finally going to give its all.  This
is possibly the worst hose for accessibility but as there will be no
water in the rad it is probably better to take that out first so I can
get to the water pump end, which is sandwiched between the power
steering pump and the engine mount.  Other practical suggestions are
welcomed.  Let’s hope the hoses are still available as I drew a blank on
replacing the engine mounts last month.



Hamish and Trish

[Quantum Owners] Re: Crazing/cracks

[Russell Willcox]

Arnie,
To get rid of them properly you need to grind away the affected gel 
coat back to the underlying fibreglass. If the fibreglass is also 
damaged you may need to remove some of that as well, but keep enough to 
retain the shape. Next relaminate the affected area using fibreglass mat 
initially and then fibreglass tissue to finish off. You should be able 
to get very close to the final shape using this method, but may need to 
use a small amount of filler to get the shape exact. Finally prep and paint.

If you simply use filler to resolve the issue, the cracks will 
re-appear again.

Hope this helps,

Russell

that the breather from the left hand side of the valve cover (looking 
from the front of car) connects to. The connector has snapped off and 
somebody has filled it with something that looks like body filler. I am 
guessing that this will be needed for emissions for IVA but that I will 
get away with a K&N breather filter on top of the black plastic part 
that would bormally go into the bottom of the air filter. I will check 
tomorrow to see if the connector is still available as I work at a Ford 
dealer.

   Can I ask where you saw the section about laminating in the spreader 
plates for the seats? I have been looking through the inspection manual 
but cannot find it. This is my first car to go through such a test as 
all the ones I have built before were pre SVA, so just the good old MOT.

[Quantum Owners] Re: IVA Information

[Russell Willcox]

Currently an immobiliser is not required as there is an exemption for 
kit cars, but from next April one will be required, or that is what I 
was told when I phoned VOSA.

[Quantum Owners] Re: 2+2 Gearbox

[Russell Willcox]

Sorry only 5 speed in the new Fiesta and KA, plus the KA is a Fiat and I 
don't know how good their gearboxes are. Interestingly though I found 
out from a mechainic at work that the 1600 Focus' have a common fault in 
their gearboxes which results in the diff  breaking out through the side 
of the box. :-(

[Quantum Owners] Re: Seats

[Russell Willcox]

I measured up many seats whilst working at the garage and found that the 
old shape Fiesta ST should fit, Hyundai coupe and Alfa Romeo GTV. 
Obviously you would have to be handy at adjusting the runners but I 
think they all bolted flat to the floor.

[Quantum Owners] Re: To Turbo or not

[Russell Willcox]

John,
Thanks for your reply it is the only one on the subject of diesel 
power so far. One thing of interest to me would be the connections to 
the car. As my car is currently XR2 based it has fuel supply/return, 
vacuum pipes going everywhere, choke cable, accelerator, plus of course 
the ignition system. I am guessing that diesel still has the 
supply/return for fuel, a power supply to the heater plugs and a cutoff 
to the fuel pump. I suppose what I am asking is if there is anything 
additional to what I already have.

[Quantum Owners] Re: To Turbo or not

[Russell Willcox]

Thanks Jim,
   Your input is always greatly received. I am going for the simpler the 
better as this usually means lower repair costs and less failures. I am 
attending a GRP course presented by John Dickens the Technical Editor of 
Complete Kitcar Magazine in South Shields, details at 
http://www.ecfibreglasssupplies.co.uk/store/ this is a free course 
beginning in early October, so if anybody wants to go let him know, 
therefore hopefully the GRP side will not be an issue.

   All I want is a car that I can use everyday, that is reliable and 
economical and does not rust. I am pretty good with anything mechanical, 
but electrics are my downfall, hence keeping things simple. When did 
electronics start to play a bigger part? Speed and 0-60 times are not 
that important, I have a motorbike and there are not many cars that will 
beat that in these stakes, however I do not like driving "normal" cars 
hence changing the Q.

[Quantum Owners] Re: MK3 SI Wingback Seats

[Russell Willcox]

Yes they do fit I used to have them in my old 2+2. The only problem I 
had was that you could not recline them fully as the wing bits hit the 
inner moulding where the seatbelt is mounted, and as already said the 
mountings are wider.
