I sent one this morning to your email. I didn't think it had worked yesterday.

If anybody can send me a copy of the MKI bits I can set up a backup on the end of my web server in case of any outages.

P.S. I already have a backup of a load of MKII bits that can be found at http://my800.co.uk/paperwork, I'll pop the desktop on later and upload what I have on there too, which I think might include some of the videos too.

I have 'Rover 800 Coupe Electrical Fault Finding Manual' that I've had for many years. Its really useful as its specific to the Coupe dated 1992.
Some of the diagrams are A3 size too.
Not seen this listed anywhere before so it must be quite rare.
If Tim wants to scan it I could post it or drop it off personally as I work that way.

A big thank you from me too to all you guys, this along with Kates methodically detailed, indexed binder of catalogues, cuttings and articles is invaluable and irreplaceable.

Tim - technical question (sort of!) - on the "SuperCD" disc that i have somewhere there is a section purely on repairing the air-con compressor clutch.
Sadly due to my organisation (or lack of!) i can't find the disc at present. Have you seen, heard of, come across, uploaded or otherwise had knowledge of this article? If so i'd be grateful for any pointers as to where i can download a copy please?

If all else fails when (if!!!) i find my SuperCD i'll let you know and send you a copy of the relevant file, meanwhile any information would be very helpful please!
Cheers,
Dave

Hi Dave, I'm pretty sure I have a copy of the Super CD somewhere, although I suffer with similar organisational skills, that and the new meds make me forget everything except for the day (that's just because it's kindly printed on the blister packs lol). If I come across it I'll stick a copy in the post to you if you like.

Hi Jim,

nice to hear from you and good to know you still find your way onto here!

That would be very useful if you could do that, thanks very much! The air-con in my Sterling has been deactivated for a while now (with periodic reactivations to keep the seals working etc while wearing ear defenders!) as the bearings in the electro-magnetic clutch have gone. Imagine a washing machine with duff bearings but about 20 times louder! :shock:
I've had a replacement compressor for a while now but that would need a de and re gas which is going to be a minimum of £50. While trawling the net some time back i came across this Air-con clutch service tool kit so i decided it had to be worth a go!

Then after ordering it i found i can't find the SuperCD - i have most of the other relevant stuff to mine stored on my PC, except that bit! :roll:
Cheers,
Dave
