My mate in the know says:
Valvoline Racing Oil, 20W50, must be mineral type. Low oil pressure ok when hot as long as oil light not on when ticking over. Oil cooler is a good idea if car hasn't already got one.
I know a lad who has had a couple of Lotus Sunbeams and knows them inside out. He has rebuilt them and he once had a Skip Brown engined car. I you want me to pass on the question I can ask him what advice he would give.
Hello,
Just bought a 1966 Riley Elf. First chance this afternoon to lift carpets and remove seats. Anybody got a cheap MIG welder?
Also has Hydrolastic suspension which has leaked and needs refilling. Does anyone know where the filling valve is? Iam sure I will find out myself but if anyone can point me in the right direction it would save time.
Cheers
Hello. I have just bought a 1966 Riley Elf (Mini with a boot)
If anyone has photos, spares, knowledge of a similar car rusting away in a barn somewhere can they let me know?
Photos are always good to compare and hopefuly get the car back to original.
Cheers
So did I. We had a lot of rivallry with Shiregreen school which was next door. Saying that, the worst thing that happened that I can remember was a snowball fight one Winter. We couldn't see each other, just lobbed em over wall.
