Appears they only sell complete no's inner wings & don't do the leg piece. I supplied them with a floor & bulkhead in the late 90-00's to use as patterns.

Have to check what the thread size is ,but any good nut/bolt place should have same as the metric.

Yes, slot it back in stub axle to stop it turning, you can heat the lock nut then longest spanner you've got for extra leverage or a pair of stilsons plus piece of pipe, you only need half a turn of the locknut then track rod end should spin free once off stub axle. Bit of anti seize on threads on reassembly.

No it was only ever available as part of a full inner wing. Also be aware the piece is different size shape between the mk's ( the bush is in the same relative space) but pre & post MK3 have a different size hole/bushing . Mk5 the chassis rail is thinner so panel is taller ( I'm not sure if MK4 is same as MK3 facelift or Mk5 as I've never measured a MK4) you'll have to make it by hand. I do have a template for the mk3's.

Yes all MK3/4/5's use the same windscreen except Mk5 saloons ( plus series 2 P100's with full B pillar vent) which are taller

No modern ones are held by clips around them, the plate on the original was to stop it coming of when pumped with grease during maintenance. Modern ones aren't greaseable

MK3 cortina genuine ford RS front blade spoiler £100 can bring to cortina day

MK3 prefacelift GT dash & console clocks ( no console) £75 or can bring to cortina day

Either the left is sticking on or right is stuck off.

No was a 2dr wasn't a true rally car but a sorta endurance/charity run type. Not heard from Gayle in a few years like most went to faceache.

2.0 pinto has 1.5 mm over bore low mileage new ford camshaft complete except exhaust, has sierra Weber & manifold. ( Not 205 block). £400

You only need the auto pedal & shaft or pedal & a spacer to fit in place of clutch pedal. I might have a pedal setup. Possibly a door but door will be expensive to ship. Will check tomorrow.

Might have some but not sure if a full set, have to check.

Bend the tube over. There all same length to my knowledge.

Ah, now here in the UK if you sell online in one year more than 30 items or a total of more than£1500 you've got to pay tax the same rate as your wages. So if you sell 30 things at £1 each the 31 is classed as earnings. I'm sure post COVID the world has gone mad. Good luck & if I can help with anything else get in touch.

No problem always glad to help if I can. Welcome to get in touch. You'd be aswell getting the Haynes manual for ohc MK3 & MK1 Granada for eng & they'll cover most of what you need to know. I've probably some knocking about.

Hmm , what about places like Australia/new Zealand or china? Or can you get two part epoxy type things like araldite or chemical metal. There's quite a few of these type things used by model makers too. Plenty of things here under £10 sterling ( no idea on shipping price but it's very small) but would they allow something from a non business/private source .

Pretty simple loosen the big locknut on the track rod first ( no more than 1/2 turn) then undo the nut holding the track rod end to the stub axle, either use a ball joint splitter, pickle fork or hit the side of the upright to shock the track rod end out. Spin the track rod end of the track rod. Undo the clips ,tie wraps or whatever is holding the gaiters on, slit/cut them off. To fit new ones squirt a bit of lube on the nut & case of steering rack. Slide gaiter on stretch over nut the secure in place. Screw new trod end on upto nut, put pin back into upright, fit/tighten nut, then lastly retigthen lock nut, repeat for opposite side. It's same as UK models.

V6 in south Africa straight six in Australia.

The cologne eng works the same as the other fords of that time, that's very good for a pinto of any age/condition, the staining around the filter is again pretty normal probably what's dripped from the rocker cover. I be pleased with an engine that clean & leak free.

Return is 6mm

The kadett one works differently to the pinto one in the way it routes the gases, I'll see if I can find a diagram but I'm not very good with computers.

Yep they use the same system ( not sure on description) but it sucks air in through the cap & fumes are expelled into the inlet manifold & reburnt. Any thing coming out of filler cap is from excess crankcase pressure either from worn piston rings allowing compression past into the sump which comes up the oil drains from the cylinder head to block & pushes oil fumes back out of the oil cap. Or can also be caused by a blocked oil pipe & or pcv valve. The cannister doesn't really get block . You can clean these with solvent( petrol,thinners,carb/brake cleaner etc). Wetness near the oil filter is probably from a loose filter or failing filter seal, or leaking rocker cover gasket. Pics would help.

It might have been messing the adjustment up.

Ford use the same ones post MK1 escort/Capri ( they where imperial thread) through at least to circa 2000 probably still same now.
