Re: UK agreed value Insurance
Have you tried RH Specialist Insurance? We have a value on the policy but I think it can only be agreed through them if garaged or with an independent valuation. £109 fully comp with limited mileage.

Re: UK 62 Greenbrier
The round ones yes although I quite fancy a chrome set. Will let you know Daren and that would be great if you manage to find the ashtray

Re: UK 62 Greenbrier

Re: A few questions....mechanic has gone AWOL
Sorry to be a pain, can anybody let me know what torque the bolts for the flywheel should be. I have pressure plate at 20, flywheel to crank at 40-50 but can't find the figure for the bolted flywheel bolts as two of mine are not tight.
Thanks in advance.
Chris

Re: A few questions....mechanic has gone AWOL
Thanks cnicol, I have small spreaders but may see if I can get the longer ones although there didn't appear to be any leaking. Blue silicon gaskets were from Clarks, will give them a go and see how they perform!!!
Appreciate the flywheel info, going to take it off to tighten those two to be safe ...
