Hey Pete
Not sure if you are still looking to refurb your speedo, but I have just done mine in a S3, including reset of the odometer to 00000. This document was a great help, http://obswww.unige.ch/~wildif/cars/...edo_repair.pdf
Cheers Chris (You know, Sandman61, I still got your Akrapovic on my 'Strom :) )

Looks absolutely brilliant!
Oh, you’re THAT Sando...[thumbsupbig] I think Trevor may have mentioned you had bought an old Land Rover. Now be prepared for the inevitable questions concerning your intelligence and sanity... mostly from your immediate family.[bigsmile1] I finished the speedo, but it’s not yet been tested. There's lots of good info in that document, I’ll definitely file it away for future reference. I do miss that Strom, and it’s beautiful Akrapovic... Peter.Quote:

Hi Peter, I PMed you re the brake bleeding.
Cheers,

It appears there is no way of monitoring water temperature on Barney. Unless I'm being (more than usually) dense.
There is the "thermostat switch for choke warning light (213574)", is this what we use to measure water temp?
It was suggested that I drill and tap a sensor into the thermostat housing, or fit one into the return hose, is this a good idea?
And on that subject, is a Choke Warning Light something I need?
Peter.
Also, what is the correct thermostat for this engine (2ltr spread-bore)?Attachment 146165It's got a big spring under it, I don't think Tridon would sell it...
I bet it won't be long & you'll get fed up with the hand brake lever up your trouser leg but that can be replaced by the later bent one & it is easier to get to, especially if you install seat belts.
Best wishes for a great resto.
