these cars run very hot. freaked me out a bit when i 1st got mine, so for piece of mind i did the old 2-fans-plus-lower-fan-cut-in-switch mod.

LOVE IT! hear the roar

good luck mate.. personally i dont know anything about this kind of stuff but i'm sure others do.

however, if you've taken the air-con out is it going spare??

i can back up point 11 though - i live on the lower clapton road, arguably one of the dodgiest areas of hackney which in turn is one of the dodgiest ares in the UK! park the BX in a side street and (touch wood) it's never had any unwanted attention. you're always seeing abandoned BMWs, Fords, Vauxha...

that's keith adams' old one i think?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6405701.stm i usually try to fill up with Tesco's 99 RON fuel - in fact i did so in edmonton, north london, on saturday. anyone experienced any problems? not so from me - car pulled liked a train as usual. it really loves that high octane stuff :) from reading about oth...
