Can the selector rod adjustment nuts be accessed through the inspection panel aperture inside the car where the 1/4 " pin is inserted through the hole in the 3 selector shafts or has access got to be from under the car? If so , is there a recommended spanner ( maybe a crowfoot ). Also am I correct i...

Thanks Gary. The gear lever is a spare one that I have . The chrome is in better condition than the original one on the car. I think Ford must have put the gaiter on before the gear lever was assembled.

I was planning to fit a new gaiter. I understand that it can be fitted with the T bar still in place by warming it in hot water and a bit of lubrication. The old one can be just cut off.

I need to fit a new rubber gaiter to my gear lever. The knob has unscrewed with no problem but the chrome part below the knob seems really tight. Is there a recommended way to unscrew this ?

What is the best distributor to upgrade from the original Ford unit?

Thanks Gary. that's very helpful.

Does anyone know the thread on the calliper bleed screws of a Tiger ?

Does anyone know the thread on the bleed screws of the brake callipers on a Tiger ?

Does anyone know what thread the bleed screws are on the front callipers of a standard Tiger ?

My original Tiger radiator now needs either repairing or replacing. Radtec seems to offer a good replacement. Has anyone any experience of their product? ie is it a perfect fit?

Recently on the U.S. TV show Fantomworks, a Tiger owner brought his car in and asked for the instruments to be changed to original Smiths gauges. I thought all Tigers were fitted with Jaeger gauges, or were export Tiger different and indeed fitted with Smiths gauges for the U.S. market.

Thanks Rich. I will do that.

Are the 2 screws securing the accelerator pedal on a RHD Tiger self tapping screws, or are they machine screws with nuts on the underside?

I will try the multi meter as you suggested.

Thanks Gary. I thought of connecting the lead to earth to test the gauge, but the workshop manual advises against this saying that the gauge windings may burn out. Have you tried this yourself ?
