Mel.

My 109 has a/t tyres on it let you know tomorrow what they are to dark and cold to go outside now(the dog can read but his writing is awfull or i would have sent him out),though i havnt done any events in her she has never been stuck off road(oh ok once).

John, that'd be great ta. Let me know what size they are too. Ive been told 235x80x16 should be ok. If i do go down the tyre line, i dont want it to affect gearing, fuel consumption etc. At the moment ive got 7.50 R 16 Michelin's on. Im also debating on keeping steel rims or getting black modulars.
[My dogs handwriting is pretty naff too Lol]

think its the 235/85/16s that are the nearest to the old 750s. thats what i have on the 90. sits the difs higher than the normal 90 size. but its normal size for 110/109s

Doug you could always loan truckster your tyres till the tank is fixed. I mean she should have a good few months of use!!!!!lol

Sorry mate couldnt resist i think i have mist just as many events as you, hence the investment in another 110!! My drive is beggining to look like a landrover fore court (twenty years ago of coarse!!!!)

Look forward to seeing you at the next event

Cheers Bill

cheeky beggar lol, alexs doing the work this time. its not all doom n gloom. infact its fail list was pretty short and mostly silly things like no rear reflector, the front indicator lense should be orange, mines gone clear. they arent exactly dear. but found out something usefull. the glowplugs are not wired in to anything hmmm so it wouldnt have had a chance of starting this winter anyway lol. so fingers crossed it will be back fighting fit very soon, i'll make sure i have my rope handy to pull you out just for old times sake of course lol

Is their an easy solution to this??

strange thing is i never had a starting problem(apart from the alternator/starter motor 'issues') it always fired up instant, no cranking over but even if the starter/alternator had been fine, theres no hope of it starting in this mild winter we just had lol. wonder what other surprises its got in store..........
