Evening Derek. I believe the bolt is M12 x 55mm. Ford part number for this bolt is 6166443 (FINIS number) - E805465 S200 (Part Number). Referenced from two sites: http://www.fordopedia.org/parts-catalog/fiesta-mk1/B2.10 https://ford.7zap.com/en/car/4/no/0/1514/15128/65623/#2 Seen one online

Afternoon Steve. Must admit, I had a job finding it too! I think I found it by accident. Link here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/333690730393209/ Look under Discussions for a post by Steve Hanley on 10th July. He has added 148 pictures to his post, it was not in the photo gallery as I

My partner and I went to the Harte and Magpies in Beaconsfield on 10/07 to have a look at the British Classic and American Car Club event that takes place on second Tuesday of the month during the summer. We rolled up at about 8:00pm and I almost fell out of the car laughing at the reaction

Hi Nigel. Had a poke around with mine earlier and found 13.8V at the battery with engine running. After scratching the detritus from the battery terminal posts this showed a healthy 14.6V, so no problem with the alternator. I turned my attention to a small cable coming off the negative post

Hi Nigel. Mine is doing the same, only noticed it in the darker evening and more pronounced with the headlights on. Tomorrow I am going to check the output voltage which I believe should be 14.1V. Mine has three wires in the plug, one red wire goes to the battery, the other to the ignition

Oh to have a tyre with knobbles on and not a nail! A good suggestion Steve, will investigate. Was considering using it as a planter for my petunias. I noted that the pepperpot is a 6J rim and it has a 185/60 R13 tyre on, the current fitted road wheels are 6J's with 165/70 R13 tyres. I am

Thank you everyone for your input, very helpful indeed. I like these wheels, I can't imagine the car wearing anything else! I measured the width of the rim as 6" when I balanced them so most likely they are a 6J. I am changing the front brake calipers, when they arrive that is, and will

Thanks Jim. No other numbers or markings on the wheels themselves. Profile of the rims is fine, nice and flat inside and evidence of previous weights being fitted. The profile was one of the default settings on the machine I used to balance them - showing me where to place the new weights on

Afternoon folks. I have lent my 2+2 to the motor department of the college where I work. It will be cleaned up and displayed for an open evening on Tuesday 15th March. In their zealous haste to clean the car up, the Quantum badge on the front of the nose cone has been almost rubbed down to
