I have had a few people ask how they can help support the channel, the best way is to simply watch the videos, like, share, subscribe and keep on commenting. I do this channel for fun, filming the things I would be doing anyway.
Merch:
I currently do not have a line of merch, but if people are interested I would be happy to set something up.
Brilliant little Tinkering Video Steve.
Great progress. Bent nails, gaffer tape and silicone, the universal fix-alls known all over the world! I mean that in a good way. 😄👍
Tape the relays to the wires, so that the conectors are on the bottom.
The small hazard one sits in a clip under the dash so the wires hang down, but the indicator replacement is to big to fit so I will tape it up.
Is there a benefit to taping them that way, other than water ingress?
Not a good choice at the factory for the master cylinder port layout, they must have fitted the pipes first to the master cylinder before connecting to unions down the line. What were they thinking of? Could be a real pain! Good progress and look forward to the MoT, then what? Sell it on or use it? Another one saved and you have added value, well done!
I plan to keep it for a while at least, have a few adventures 😀
Well done mate made me smile
Good luck with the MOT! Fingers crossed......
Nice bit of progress. Sticky sticky. Made me think of twin town🤣.
A nice tin of sticky sticky 🤣
Good luck with the MOT
Cheers mate
This isnt the one You took off frame to restore is it. Sir.? Love those little cars. There Awesome. Great Video Sir.
No that's the Robin we bought from a field. The one off the frame is the Reliant Regal which is on hold til after the house move.
Is a rear wheel bearing easy to change buddy
Clever clever man fair play mukka you know your stuff cars looking great hopefully should fly the mot 👍👍👍
I recently bought a rialto. Got it running but on driving it’s dogging and backfiring.
Would you have any advice please?
Thanks
Darren From Swansea.
If it's back firing I would check your timing and firing order first. Google Fifers reliant hints and tips, lots of info on that site.
when you get back on the road make sure you refit the plastic sheets inside the doors or your footwells will fill full of water
Yeah I will definitely be doing that, along with new gutters, a sticker refresh and a repaint of the bumpers.
