Generally, there are 2 types of rad cap, for older cars. One just vents out to the street, the other type, to an overflow bottle. The second type is a different design, that allows coolant past the rubber seal when you turn off the engine. The first style does not. From memory, the 'small' cap is #5...

Does anybody know the part number for the overhaul kit of the SS40v brake master cylinder? Complete unit is $350 up. After disassembly, all looks good inside, just the rubber seals are worn. There are 5 rubber seals in the kit, (plus a dust boot cover, on the end) Whole unit is #JB1694. Have contact...

Hi mate, do you have the brake master cylinder on top the steering column?? If so, is it in good working order? Could you mail to Adelaide 5371 ?

Thanks, Bear.

OK, will do.

Hi Gypsy, is that the seat that was dealer fitted to the rear of the '82 Hatch. Very interested....

If this is your prob, try driving up a hill, foot flat to the floor, you'll hear the noise. :D Usually a timing issue. Or compression too high, for fuel oc...

I'm with you, accel pump on carby.

LOL. I had a rubber 'foot' of a toaster stuck in there for a while. Was lucky I found the guy at Suzuki who knew what I was talking about, and remembered the part. Stuck the pics up for everyone else to see the part number.

Hey all, does anyone have any spare wiper (driver) arms?? You know the ones under the windscreen cowl?? I have the wiper motor, the wipers and blades, but, the driver arms with the white plastic/teflon knuckle joints on the ends, are broken or missing. Mr Suzuki says they are sold as a complete item...

Well, its been a challenge, but, finally took the little fella for a run around the paddock. (no brakes!!). Found the speedometer and dash bits, and started cleaning them up. Might accidently roll some numbers back on the odo, supposed to be a recon engine, so might as well make it easy on myself, w...
