Hi, Does anyone know where I can get new wheel nuts ( black or chrome ) like the original?. I have looked on ebay and can't find. Want something close to the original ones. Cheers

Thanks for the advice. My Landlord took a look as well and the clutch cable has been fully adjusted. He said maybe needs new clutch kit?. and new cable as well. So I probably have to price both. Cheers Blue

Hi, Just wanted to know what bearing size do I need for the radiator fan. I might be doing a roadie soon and just collecting a few spares like hoses, belts clamps etc., On my previous car they called it an idler pulley?. And where do I buy general mechanical parts at a decent price? Say hoses and belts?. Okay Cheers

Thankyou B.L.Z. BUB for the advice. Ted

Hi, I want to clean up and paint the steel rims on my Rolla. I need to do it on a shoestring. So I am going to remove the rust and old paint using a cup brush on a grinder. I just need to know how to prepare the rim to get the paint to stick. I will use spray cans, After I use the wire brush Do I need to scuff up the steel? Maybe with those scour pads? What is a good automotive primer in a spray can will do the job? And what type of top coat is best? Cheers Ted

Hi, Thankyou to B.L.Z BUB and 19914afc. I will head to the auto shop Monday. Cheers Ted

Hi, Can anyone please tell me the diameter of the drain bolt for engine oil?. I need to change oil very soon and I wanted to put a new washer on the bolt . Looks like there may be a minor leak. Once I pull the bolt out I can't get to the shop so I thought I ,d buy one first. And is it better to get a copper washer or plastic? Have a good Saturday. Ted
