Hi Graham,

Thank you very much for your prompt answer!
Indeed I seem to have missed the information about the printer messing up with the posting to overseas members.
Thanks again for informing me!

Best regards,

Peter

Up til now I have not received Cats Whiskers number 104, should I have not received it yet?

If you want a Voltmeter which resembles the style of you your gauges in your Tiger than I can tell you how to obtain such a voltmeter. I have just ordered two of this meters for both my Tiger and my Series IV Sunbeam Rapier. There are two styles available one with the digits above the scale (like in...

Hi Martin, I am glad that I could help. And no I haven't been able to locate the spring, but with the information you supplied I am going to test my luck again in the Netherlands. We have here several suppliers of Mustang parts and from one of them I have bought in the past parts for my Tiger. So I ...

Hi Martin, as promised I inform you that I have been able to track a drain tap here in the Netherlands at Rootes Parts Service which costed me, including posting, 8 Euros. In your case you can buy this tap closer to home from Alpine West Midlands. They sell both the earlier and the later type. The t...

Thanks Mal, I had already this option in mind, but it is very frustrating to take out the radiator while a simple replacement of the tap should be a possibility. But thanks anyway for your advice!

Peter

In the meantime I found out that drain taps for all Alpines (series I up to and including series V) are the same for Tigers up to and including chassisnumber B382001894. I just got a mail from Sunbeam Spares Company that they only supply Silicone bottom hoses for RHD Tigers. For LHD Tigers they only...

Hi Martin, In the meantime I have posted my question on the forum of CAT and asked also if Mustang parts could help. As soon I have receieved some usefull information (regarding the drain tap) I will inform you via this forum It should not surprise me when this drain tap is the same as used on the r...

Hi Martin, Thanks for your reply and thanks for your suggestion, so I will do as you advise and contact the forum of CAT. Why did I not think of that before, especcially being a member of CAT for many years! Regarding the drain tap for the radiator surely this tap is the same for both LHD and RHD Ti...

Hi bigbob, I guess you don't have the answers on my questions? I am not a member of Facebook and I will keep it that way. Besides the information disappears after some time and will be to no benefit of other Tiger owners. So in my opinion Facebook isn't something good for the Tiger community. Well i...

Well it seems that I am not Lucky with getting the information about the silicone waterhose but perhaps somebody is able to inform me about the right size and sort of thread of the drain tap of the radiator of my 1964 MK 1 Tiger. The drain tap is leaking and I have no idea which supplier could deliv...

Hi Tim,

I would appreciate it very much if you are able and willing to send me the data about your silicon hose. At least the measures and the shape is something I need.
Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Peter

Hi Tim, Thank you very much voor your response. As you can read in my first post I had considered also the option of a silicone hose, but the trouble is that I only found standard silicon hoses which don't have the right shape. So please can you inform me about the data of the silicon hose you have ...

Thanks Mal, I will do that. But the hose which is installed on my Tiger doesn't have that spring. My hose is installed in 1992 when my Tiger was restored in England. The writing on the hose is as follows: 5D07 EBP EC/R 80MH75 Made in USA Is somebody on this forum familiar with this hose? Thanks in a...

Hi Redbaron,

Thanks for your reaction and I will do as you suggest. I assume that there is no hose available which is reinforced,

Regards,

Peter
