Are both cranks the same

some useful advice here thanks. Sounds like the 10 / 40 semi synthetic should not be a problem it may be because I removed the oil cooler & fitted a small spin on fiter on the block. After a long fast run Sunday the car stalled at a rounabout & was push started but hasn't sound right since

Need sone expert advise. I have been using semi-synthetic 10/40 in my Tiger and I have been told this could cause damage and should only use a 20/50 mineral based oil. Is this fact?

I wondered who made these? Think i've seen them on F1 Stock Cars. As you say though pricey and although I don' want a rubber battery these are possibly a bit too space age

Can anyone recommend a high cranking battery low enough to fit under the boot floor

I am in Hertfordshire so if anyone has a tool to loan I can collect in the SE or pay return shipping from anywhere in Europe.

Thanks everyone for the advice on the front suspension assembly. I'm not much of an engineer so I would be very gratefull if anyone out there has a Chucrhill Spring compressor I can borrow/hire when the time comes.

Seems I have started something on the subject of techtips on the website !

Thanks for the info. I was guessing a suitable spring compressor would be needed but was hopeing not. I should have CW 13 so will check it out

My mk1a has been at a body shop for a number of years being restored. As it slowly gets towards being painted I am considering how to re-assemble the front suspension. Normally it could be assembled on the car with engine in to provide the downforce. I would like to assemble the suspension so I can ...

Still trying to make contact with Paul Norton. Has anyone had contact with him

Hi Gary, got yourself a very rare Tiger there as there were less than a handfull of official RHD Tigers sold outide of the Met. Police. They all went to Major Rootes Dealers and Jack Waters was one of them. For most of it's life Jack kept the car at Waters Hatfield showroom.

I am not sure he is taking orders?
I sent the Servo off to him without contacting him. I last spoke to Paul about 8 months ago which is why I am asking if anyone is in touch, I am not concerned about getting the Servo quick I just want to know Paul has received it and that he is OK.

Has anyone been in touch with Paul Norton lately? I sent him a Girling 7" servo for a recon. a couple of months back and have not heard from him. Tried email & phone without luck. I hope Paul is OK I read on another club's site that he was quit ill atleast a year ago but had recovered at the time th...

As far as I am aware the Tiger MKIa and II were available with factory colour hardtops in the GT spec. i.e. with rolltops on the doors.
My MKIa certainly came with a white steel hardtop but it was a cop car
