Hi Dave, I have CAV #105 and had the same problem. The issue was that in the sill where the coolant hard line comes through the inner fender the hose clamp was loose on the connection to the inner soft line. I added an extra hose clamp and tightened both. My car had no access hole to...

Hi Alan, Nice to see you at cars and coffee Irvine a few weeks ago. Remember the green eggs and ham at breakfast. Now you have me thinking. On my Cav at the back of each tank I have a fuel pickup and a vent. Both vents are capped and have been since it was built. I never had any fuel smell...

Hello Cal, Ian is making new uprights for my CAV and said that your car has these upgraded uprights. I am in Tustin and would appreciate it if I could give you a call to see how these uprights worked out. My issue has been darting under accel and decel as well as one rear stub axle with a slight...

Hi Veek, I think that that relay control unit you referenced comes from a Rover. Eric

Thank you all for the E brake info. On my CAV with the wilwood caliper E brake I have issues. If the pads are adjusted close enough to the rotor the E brake works well but the E brake pads drag and sounds like Louis Armstrong is playing the trumpet behind my head. When I adjust the pads...

Jesse, I will take my GT to Cars and Coffee on Saturday. Get some new tires on yours and we can run up on the freeway towards my place and fix your gas gauge. Eric
