The 'E' Type Forum

Your car look the business

I’ve always used Castrol 4 Life in both my E Type and XK120 without any issues (plus a water wetting agent). I also have my Kenlowe (took the original useless fan out) on manual control so that I can switch it on when I want, eg approaching a traffic jam etc. But, as others have said, whatever coola...

Good luck

Warped brake discs?

Hope you have as much enjoyment with your new steed as I have had with mine for the last 30yrs.

Enjoy, Richard

Cheers, Richard

Thanks, will do.

Cheers, Richard

Have you any recommendations as to who the best supplier of the...

We’re all doomed Captn Manering!

Yes, it’s very frustrating/annoying!!

Thanks for all your replies guys.

I did find the earlier comments (thread) on this just after I had posted this thread but it was too late to delete it.

Suppose I’ll (we’ll) just have to accept this.

Regards,

Richard

Can’t answer your question but good luck.
