Re: 77 Marina keeps blowing rear lights

Hi Remy,have you tested the voltage at the battery when it’s running? I would think a maximum of 14.7v. Anything higher than that could cause you problems. If it reads high you could have an alternator problem.

Re: CAR INSURANCE

Just changed to Peter James for both cars £265.00. One free upgrade was unlimited mileage as I’m a club member. Thought I’d support them as they are supporting our club.

Re: Does anybody know this car?

I believe this car may be up for sale soon, I’ve asked the owner that when the time comes can he advertise on here first. It’s still in Eastbourne on the south coast

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

The inside of the tank is now clean,it seemed covered in a sticky grey film. Filter has cleaned up a treat. I’ll leave it in. A coat of schutz,a new breather pipe and back in again. Thanks Ben

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

Found the cause of the breakdown on the way to the nationals. The filter attached to the sender unit in the tank.

The question is as I have a filter further upstream shall I leave it out?

Re: CAR INSURANCE

After a little nudge from the club (thanks Chris) they have called back. It is something they can do but the two cars would have to be on separate policies. More detail to follow.

Re: CAR INSURANCE

Well I tried Lancaster, took me three attempts to get through ,on the third attempt somebody answered, but couldn’t answer my question, then tried to get me through to somebody else. On hold for a while, and then informed they would ring back. I’m still waiting three days later.
Oh well!
