Hi, All, Regarding the above I replaced my wiper motor wire recently with one I purchased from Moss in the UK Not sure what SWG it is but it is grey covered(plastic) Could,nt say if this is original as mine was missing! I have a question myself regarding a miss-fire that has recently appeared on my TB, It only happens when the engine is hot (not that hot in N. Yorks) and comes and goes causing the car to surge! I am at the moment running with 11/2 Carbs and one fuel pump. It seems to be a fuel problem and I dont have a heat shield fitted yet!! Vapourisation possibly, any advice would be most welcome. PS Sorry I did not get to meet you all at Rebuild ,02 it was a busy day getting to all the talks and unloading a spare cylinder head onto George Edney for mods. Regards, Ron Benson TB
