Simon, just another thought re fuel tank. I came across this firm recently and they look very good. Take a look at their website. Hartlepool Radiator Company, "ReNu fuel tanks. It looks a very good process and will certainly get rid of any crud/ rust etc.

Managed to use some brass mesh and fashion a filter. Its not pretty but does the job. Use the old remaining ring that came off the plug to tidy the top of the filter off

Given that I also need my Fulvia's radiator repaired it looks like a lot of sense to send them both up to hartlepool. Cheers

This is too far gone I guess. Does anyone have a different opinion?

New petrol tank is on the way down south - thanks Jim and brother Ed is sorting carb parts and rebuilding from the castings that Jim sent.
Won't be too long before we can see if it starts

Gosh, three years! Oh well. A lot has been happening and the Fulvia has taken up the time.
I have moved (near Worcester now), and now have a double garage.
Anyway, various things have happened to the Appia. It goes. But there is much to do. First up is the brake systems, starting with the handbrake (sorted) and rear pistons etc. Below is a photo of what I hope is the correct positioning of the scissor spring on the handbrake actuator rod. This was very difficult to see when it was all together and I am not sure exactly where it goes. Anyone know?
I hope to do more reports from time to time, esp. obviously if I need some advice Cheers Simon

Does anyone know how to put the new responses/replies at the start rather than the end?

Re the spring, if I recall, it sits above the bearing because its main job is to hold the rod in place when putting it all together, and it doesn't keep dropping on the floor !
