Help....Speedo Sensor
Discussion
Just a bit of info for other owners (with the speedo sensor on the front wheel).
Apparently there are two different versions of uprights that hold the speedo sensor, one threaded and the other not. In my case it was not threaded, however it had corroded itself (over 3 years) so well that the only way of removing it was to drill the old one out! Aluminium and steel do not react well together!
I wimped out at the point of drilling out the old one and contacted Plans. They managed to fit me in, and as usual they did a great job (Thanks again John).

LOL! OK. I knew a guy called Andy Crowe that I worked with in Chichester up until recently, and he loved his cars.
