Clock Gone Bang!

[matt-man]

Well, last night i jumped in the car and the clocks stopped!

Havent checked to see if its lost power yet, but i assume its morelikely that its just had its day!

Anyone got one for sale??

[gsx600]

Not the clock !!

You can't drive a TVR without the sound of the clock in the background

Oh hang on that's a rolls where the clock tick is louder than your average V8 TVR monster engine

Matt - that is very serious..

The clock on the flapper wedges controls the ECU timing.

You will find that the car won't run for much longer without it

There is a fix though - there is a manual clock in the ECU but you will need to wind it up with the key..

Thats obviously where my misfiring problem has come from!!!!

Now wheres that engine key....!!

[dickymint]

Easy fix - it says in the Bible you need to get a new lump of quartz!!

TIME gentlemen please!

Hi Keith,

If its the same then sounds good!!! its a standard sized vdo type clock, mate by moto meter...

Sure its not something daft like a duff connection? The light on mine works after I hit it but that's on my list for when the dash next comes off.

When my fuel gauge stopped working I took it to bits and found that one of the copper wires hadn't been soldered down and over 15 years or so had tarnished slightly. Soldering it fixed it. It might be worth checking for something similar.
