Wow... Thank you.... Lots of work to do next week Really grateful Regards to you David

Yes... I think I maybe following 2 paths but indeed one of them is normal... Turning the wheels makes the governor click. The noise is when driving but also when stationary... I am going to check touque convertor bolts and flex plate... Just to be sure.. Many thanks indeed..

Thanks Jack... I think we are going to do this. We discussed today that the only way to check is to pull the pan and have a look. Sometimes the noise disappears... Really strange problem... Kindest Regards David

Yep..but why also when turning rear wheels in neutral... Engine not running. I thought it wouldn't turn torque convertor in this state... But I'll check.. Thank you

Thanks but can't be the uj as does it when stationary... Strange one indeed...

Thanks guys.... But the ticking is there when the gearbox is in neutral and turning the wheels without the engine running... I didn't think the torque conveyor would even move in this condition... But I will check...

Riviera 1965 with the 3 speed TH400 transmission. When driving I noticed a tapping noise.. Engine linked as increases with engine speed... Sounds exactly like a tappet noise.... But it isn't... It's coming from the gearbox. Sometimes it goes away. It's there while driving or in park and increases as the engine revs... Can't hear it at idle. Jacked up a rear wheel and put gearbox in neutral engine stopped and turned the raised wheel... There is the tapping noise again from inside the Gearbox.... Any ideas? Car drives well, changes gear fine, oil levels good, fluid clean.

You guys are hilarious.... Why is there only one Monopolies commission..... I read this morning that one of the first signs of the COVID-19 virus is a lack of taste.....I must have had it for years then judging by many of my ex's.... On a more serious note....The temp gauge I bought I wanted to hide and not spoil the look of the dash, hence put it in the glovebox but then stupid unless you drive around with the door open. The one I got allows you to adjust the colour of the display to match the instrument lighting which is nice, but also allows you to set a point that if it ever reaches sounds an alarm.....which would then be the time to open the said door and monitor. thus you only have to set that point once irrespective if F or C . Mine never goes above 86 deg C thus I have it set at 92 , so about 198 F Best Dave

Haha, That is exactly the one I bought. Works a treat....need to make the holes bigger but now you have an adjustable vac actiuator...that you can set at half open by default if you wish....

Verde Green... Or some back-street interpretation of it at least.. As I said.... We can fix it...

Yes.... And one of very few in the UK... I did the same.... Put mine in the glove box, but it has an alarm you can set.... If it goes past 90c it howls at me.... Hot and cold lights just not enough considering the cost of repair for 7 litres of ancient petrol guzzler.... Bought blind.... A mess in many areas. Horrid repairs, many areas are polished turds.... But we have the power to fix it... Thick metal helps. Looking better daily. Oh and did I mention... Working Air con...

Lovely pic... I have cold air.... Turns out one of the 2 port valves that I bought for a million dollars was duff. Bought a very nice single port, polished alloy from ebay for £13.00 looks the part and works brilliantly. Fast powerful and used normally for waste gates on VW/Audi. No I don't have half open doors... But who cares... It works. Have a great evening Bob...
