Thanks for the advice, managed to get it freed up with a lot of WD40. Just need to get it back for the re-test now.

Looking for your help
My Vr failed today for a Brake load sensing valve linkage seized.
I've had a look underneath the car but I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for. Don't want to try and un-seize something thats not supposed to..
Your help is appreciated

I finally got myself a minted VR6
But a couple of things I have noticed are :
The previous owner had the car as a show car polished engine bay and minimal fittings eg. removed washer bottle.
Anyway I'll get to the point, he had fitted an induction kit and he had removed what I think was a charcoal filter (correct me if I'm wrong). I want to put the car back to original for the winter as its running lumpy in this cold weather. There is two pipes that should come from the top of the charcoal filter but I don't have the correct fittings as previous owner cut the pipes (pipes now open blowing out in to the air) therfore I'm getting a very strong smell of fumes in the car.
Does anyone know what the pipe connections are called and where I could buy new ones and does this sound like where my fuel/fume smell is where the problem is at.
Much appreciated

Thermostat housing kit?
in Engine Maintenance and Problems
Posted
I've sprung a leak at my thermost housing, think it could just be one of the seals but was thinking if I'm having to drain the system then I would be best just to replace the lot as it doesnt seem too dear for the parts.
I have seen a kit on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=190301300398 can anyone tell me if they have fitted this kit and what the quality of this B and B components is like?
Also would this come with all the seals required to do the job?
Replies much appreciated
