E55 LBR the parallel project
« on: 03 June, 2018, 06:13:24 PM »
Hi
Will be trying to get this little beauty back on the road but might be a long distance affair as it is in Hartlepool and there will be no room at the new house in Scarborough still it has a nice dry home for the next couple of months

Only a flying visit today but just had time to crack the wheel bolts off on the front passenger wheel...this is not moving so will be the first place to start.
Had an ocean of grief with a Fiat Stilo wheel bolt that had snapped off so was mighty relieved when with the assistance of the car wheel brace and my trolley jack handle they all came loose..

Had a quick look at the caliper today....the locking sliding things came out very easily and still had copper grease on but the caliper is jammed on the disc so will need the full works to remove it...the flexihose is a gonner so it will be all off and start from scratch. Had a result with the heater fan that was sounding like a coffee grinder I just swapped it for the spare that came with the car. The indicators don't work but the hazards do if you hold the switch in. The front sidelamp is not working because someone has cut the bulbholder off the loom??? Has anyone got a wiring diagram? the earth trees are in a poor state and will need reterminating.

Hi all
Got the caliper off and freed up the pads regreased and back on.. the little car pushes around just fine...perhaps a test drive round the site is in order

Lashed out £5 on 2 bent bits of wire from Halfords so I can get the radio out as I have a Sony minidisc/radio to go in

Familiar looking box? Supplier based in Berlin by any chance? I just had a pair of wheel arch liners delivered in something like than for the Alfa 159 Q4.. £34 for two including postage!

Quick job swap the radio??? no chance this is a Lancia...being 30 years + old the radio wiring is rudimentary and does not match up to the newer MD player I had doing nothing so I will have to spend a bit more time wiring it in properly not with @taped@ joints see pic

radio is in but stays on all the time as it needs to be powered via a switchable power source....5 minute job... bonus was a Paul Weller minidisc that had been left in by the ebay seller.

I'm just sad I have 2 MD walkmans, 2 MD/radios for cars, a MD autochanger for the car, a Sony MD mini Hi Fi system (£4 from a car boot sale) and a full size Sony Hi Fi deck. I prefer them as you can only squeeze about 5 albums on at the most rather than 20 zillion like a MP3 player so you can actually find what you want to listen to. Can't wait to get the autochanger set up!!!
