Re: Starting technique?
The 1100 EFI should start easily with a few revolutions and a very small amount of throttle, It does need to be fully primed as fuel can syphon back to the tank if left for a longer period.

Re: Tension spring on parking brake rear caliper
If you mean the spring on the caliper itself? these are as supplied by the caliper manufacturer, so a dedicated design tension for that particular caliper to suit the piston size, seal drag and specific safety considerations, its probably not a good idea to reduce the tension as the caliper may not ...

Re: Type 1 Wiring Loom question
Dave, That looks exactly like the plug we used to fit on T1 looms when they had a Lucas 2 speed wiper motor. It was usual on the end of a longish cable as the bonnet needed to be lifted enough to disconnect the wiper before completely removing the bonnet. We have got one here if you want to call in ...
