Excellent article! Well done Michael for posting this up! -
https://images.app.goo.gl/67Ftj4bLEmzgmEXX6 Don't forget the sticker in the engine bay that says to only check the oil level 2 - 3 minutes after turning the engine off and only at working temp. If you check it cold it will show too high as the oil drains down to the sump quite quickly in the 907.

I have one one my Elite, there are no manufacturers marks on it at all, in fact its a bit crappy ...so probably Lucas 😂 -
The flexplate flywheel is pretty light as well, only 6.5kg.

S2.2 Hazard warning switch!
pbharcourt replied to pbharcourt's topic in Interior/Exterior/Lights/Glass/ICE/HVAC & Other
Yes I saw that but then add VAT and in total for one it comes to £32 Anyhooo .. I ended up roughly carving one out of old flat mica circuit board and even without the pivot points it actually works!! I have a working Hazard light switch, which of course means that most of my electrics are working again as they route through the switch. -
S2.2 Hazard warning switch!

I went to order a couple of 3D printed parts but was surprised at the price. £13 each plus £40 postage from the US...sort of defeats the point of a 3D file that you can print anywhere in the world? -
I can make Thursday 16th June, any good? Might be able to drag the Elite out of it's electrical malaise and bring it along.🫣

I have ordered the Land rover one as a stopgap, and I would be interested in a link to the 3d printed part! I was going to try and make the part out of mica board....not sure if that would work though. -
The 912 is basically a linear development of the 907, so with the right bits it is possible to upgrade the 907. Have a look at Lotusbits web site as they did have an article listing the upgrades available just using genuine Lotus parts from later models. The main parts are : a long stroke crank, shorter pistons, cams with different timing and different ignition timing. It's also possible to fit the later HC head to a 907.

Oh crap! Missed it again, I have a valid excuse this time though... promise! I have temporarily un-retired , the fire service is so short of proper driver's that they have asked me back for the summer (scraping the proverbial barrel) and I was on a night shift. Would love to come to the next one if you'll still have me😘
