Maybe it was Clive who bought the aluminium, vented, Griff bonnet from eBay and conveyed it home on the front of a Peugeot?

yes, twas me, but it was in the back of the peugeot, a certain steve j thought it would be a good prank to place it on the front of the 306 to see what it would look like, but I wouldn`t oblige

all in all though I think I got a bargain, just need to do a little repair then have it sprayed to match my car, and hopefully a cunning induction mod will now be possible

I think thats going to be tricky, looked like it needed cross braces to me. Can only see it flexing and cracking the paintwork without significant support

thats just what I was thinking Dave, the damage happened while it was off the car apparently, but to be honest the flex isn`t that much more than the fibre glass one, but I think it will benefit from some bracing just to be on the safe side.

by the way Dave, is there a way of testing an afm to see if its working correctly?

Best tests I know of are from the proper 'Rover' manuals:

Like http://tvr3.dspen.com/ph/efi_test.zip (I wont leave it there too long BTW )

Clive, if you're in need of an AFM then my distributor and AFM were both replaced last July with reconditioned exchange one's by TVR Power.
I won't be needing them.

thanks Dave, I`ll probably be back asking questions after I`ve had a good read

cheers Craig, I`ve arranged to borrow one from Johno for a couple of months, I`m hoping to replace my ecu as well soon, if not in the coming few months then definately in the autumn this year, but will call you later anyway
hows yours coming along?

[dnb]

Clive - I think I have a reasonably easy way of testing AFMs.

I could do with getting 2 calibrated to read the same and using them for testing something on my Griff...

I have also noticed Ugly is becoming more unpredictable these days Steve

I am concerned that he is loosing his marbles the cockney Nutter

I mean who would want to put a Griff bonnet on a Frog car

It may well have started out as a Tata (Indian Morris IIRC)....

and he's just about to embark on the next stage of its metamorphosis?
