Re: Adjusting Jaeger speedometer

Evidently my Jaeger Speedo is different from yours. While mine has a screw in the back, adjusting it achieves nothing. My Speedo continues to read high (80kmh displayed at 60kmh verified by my gps speed app).

Re: Curious brake issues Series 1/2 Fulvia

Further to your description Huib, my setup currently only has one hose to each of the front Girling calipers. All the brake components are overhauled or replaced, apart from the discs and pads which had plenty of life in them. No, the rear axle etc was not replaced or changed, the rear brakes still ...

Sounds like I need to split the booster off and check actuating rod lengths… It’s a 1.3s Rallye, VIN 818.361 010732. Was originally...

Curious brake issues Series 1/2 Fulvia

I’ve recently recommissioned a 1970 series 1 Fulvia after 7 years in a shed. A previous owner had fitted a brake booster and Girling front calipers from a series 2.
