    EK9 Rolling Restoration

    New regulators in and they work great. Tidied up the wiring. Added these bits of foam to each door to stop the rods rattling over bumps. Bit of a “silk purse out of a sows ear” job here, I decided to use as much of it as I could. Some of it was missing hence the tape. A pair of original...

    EK9 Rolling Restoration

    I had to take the ek9 off the road for a while, so I’ve got a mk1 CRV which is proving useful until I fix the ek9, there was an oil leak from the corner of the headgasket that was getting worse and the running issue was worrying me with daily fault codes and lack of power. Good news is I found...
