D'oh....ah crap....I took it to school and handed the envelope to the teacher, I didn't look on the back of your card. Hopefully he didn't throw the envelope out with the card in it.

Default Good Result

Hi Joel - I am glad you found the switch plate. Even though I have a plentiful supply of the ball handle toggle switches, including several of the elusive fuel switches, don't lose any more. I would like to see some dash images and whether you have resolved the high/low beam issue.

Bob

Thanks again Bob

We just started our March break so I'll get some pictures afterwards. Have not solved the high/low beam issue as almost all of the students are scared of wiring/ electrical work. But I did find one who said she would try and tackle the job after break. So wish her luck when we get back.

Ok, so neither gas tank floater works, when school gets back the students will try to see if they can be fixed. If they cannot, is there an easy replacement or not?

Again I await the responses of the masters

Default NOS is best.....

Princess Auto sells a Chinese model.... on size fits all.....bolt pattern is almost identical to the CMP 5 bolts..... not sure if the Ohms/resistance will match the gauge on the instrument cluster.

Fall back is a small wooden stick painted flat black..... stick it in ..pull it out ... if its wet your fine for a while.... been driving my farm tractor for 20 years that way......

....and carry a spare gerry can just in case.... asection of aluminum foil can be used as a funny funnel....
