Thanks for the update Steve.

I'm keen to learn about Flatlands. I've just tried their website but it's not appearing. Are they still in business?

If anyone reading this has had their nova worked on by Flatlands I wonder if...

Good idea. How would you plug the fuel pump?

I think I'll stick to your suggestion. I have 4 fuel pipes - 2 for each carb, as you well know. If I take them all off then fuel would vapour out of them as well as the breather pipe. Maybe it could...

David - I can’t believe I didn’t think of that. So obvious. Maybe I’ve lost more brain cells than I thought.

Hi Lauren

Many years ago I bought that little red anodised device from Demon Tweeks that I was referring to in my reply to David, but never fitted it. I remember you emailing me with help about...

:thumbup:

Thanks for the advice.

Last night I realised that as I've been working on the throttle pedal I've been pumping the throttle a lot over the weekend which was releasing fuel into the carbs. I'm...

Hi everyone. I hope you're all coping OK.

Fuel vapor from my nova is venting into my very well sealed single garage, and every time I work on the car in the garage, even with the up and over door...

hope this helps...

not sure why one has uploaded sideways. You'll have to tilt your head.

As far as I know (please anyone correct me if I'm wrong)...

A proportioning valve is used to reduce brake line pressure to the line it is fitted to, not to increase it. You need to locate it...

Mine was from 'GB Engineering'. I can confirm that they do not make them anymore. It was a fight many years ago to get them to make me a thrust bearing after the one on my nova fell off whilst it was...

I'd like to reinforce David's comment about brake bias.

From experience driving my nova a heck of a lot for about 8 years, a brake bias is essential. My nova also used to lock up it's front...

Great photos Lauren. The Grey Machine looks fantastic :wink:

Well done for getting in Lauren :wink:

As you know I've been to quite a few of these days at Brooklands. I also find the supercars quite boring. I think it's an age thing. For anyone who'se never...

Haha - there must have been a dopey marshall on the gate that you managed to con! :lmfao:

I know you've contributed a lot to the Alfa forum over many years so I guess you're part of the gang. That...

I'll never forget seeing that for the first time at Stoneleigh. I remember staring open mouthed and completely unable to speak. I managed to turn my head toward my friend who did the same at the same...

Great to see another show visit!

I also wondered the same as Dave if water gets in through the holes in the side windows but you've answered that one. Have you ever considered making vents in the...

I think it's very healthy for contributers on any forum to feel able to give their honest opinion on anything, provided it is done in a tactful manner. Islandman's comment is a great example....

Thanks for sharing some of the show Lauren. The Nova looks great. Here's to more show posts as I've missed them.

Nice one :thumbup:

From experience they seem to know what they're doing.

Some serious effort going on here :thumbup:
