Hello Everyone, I know the userbase of SS is the United States, but I am sure there are a few people from the UK here. Just would like to spread a bit of information regarding the Overlord Show 2017. The Solent Overlord Executive Military Collectors Club is running the show like in previous...

Haven't seen Carnac in the thread for a few weeks. Anyone have any ideas - I know he was doing a roadtrip :driver:or something nut it's getting close to his 30th deadline....

Just did some basic cleaning of the engine compartment. Cleaning out the dirt off the side walls. Wiped down the rest of the engine and removed some surface rust of the air intake pipe and treated it. Also fixed a the loli-pop lights I had installed. Had to do some rewiring. Also found out some...

Ah, I understand now :goodjob:

You wouldn't really need to be going that fast given the mass of a deuce. Even at 25mph its going to be moving more than fast enough to do that. Then there is the pretty robust construction of the deuce. Deuces are more than strong enough to take out some bricks. This is an A3 but good demo...

Yeah, that's what I was talking about. So would you just rewire the existing switches or add news ones?

Nice work there. Can't really imagine what you'd be able to run with all those circuits. Nevertheless quite a useful addition. I assume it's just a matter of running another wire and switch to one of the relays if you wanted to add another accessory. Where exactly do you get the waterproof...

Sorry to potentially hijack this thread for a few moments. That yellow pipe connecting the to bottom of the turbo. Does it bear any significance? where does it connect to? becuase I don't actually remember seeing anything connected there on my one..

Ah thanks a lot :)

Do you by any chance happen to have a picture of the dash plate. Or perhaps know where I would be able to find one online?

Hi, Thank you very much for this. I've seen your other threads and you've done an amazing job so far. The previous owners didn't appear to take any care with preserving the original information. New data plates and its been repainted so I can't verify the hood number. a. vin: 032523832 b...

That would make sense. Thanks Guys. :grin:

They may well have done that. But there appears to be a complete absence of information regarding the ether start system in the 2006 and 1988 revisions of the manuals. Which I find peculiar. Reading elsewhere on the site. Apparently the Ether system was better and installed preferentially over...

I'm pretty confident I don't actually have a manifold heater. There is nothing which looks like the diagrams in the technical manuals on the engine. Thanks for that.

Wow, wasn't expecting such a quick reply. I don't believe there is any switches which I don't know what they do. I've just found this video on youtube which seems to suggest that the ether start is is run by using the manifold heater switch. Go to 1 minute 31 seconds...
