To be aware - re fuel filter kits

Yorkshire GOC · 16th September 2022, 14:46

Have been in e mail contact with Jack -AKA Bizzy Lizzy who sells 75/ZT stuff on e bay including fuel filter kits/ Hans Gauges and light cluster repair kits - due to low demand he will not be producing fuel filter kits or gauges going forward. Shame really.

I can have them custom made for me but the demand is now so low that investment in another production run is pretty unlikely.
So, I'm advising anyone reading the listing to get what they need before they're gone forever.
Thanks for the update on the K-bus Temperature Gauge. The position with that one is they're gone forever.
Hope this helps

It's sad to hear but inevitable as time goes on.I have one of his temp gauges and it's proved very reliable.Top chap who produced quality items

I've tried to follow up on this, but could you provide a little more info. please?

Searching on ebay for "Rover 75 light cluster repair kits" only brings up the saloon foam rubber gasket, amongst other (unrelated) repair kits. I didn't find Bizzy Lizzy amongst them.
To search for Bizzy Lizzy, you need his ID number, do you by chance have it.

You mention a listing, and I presume that with the above ID it can be displayed.

Thanks for any help you can give.

If you search this on Ebay you will find his Viton fuel line O-rings.
You can then search for his other auctions.

The light cluster repair kit is here - it is for the tourer.

When I looked at the fuel filter on my 1.8k in order to make sure it had not come loose, I had one of the clips in my possession. My thought at the time was that it would not take much to devise a DIY alternative to the orange (later white I think) clip if they were no longer available.

BRG75 · 16th September 2022, 17:56

You're absolutely right.

I've read (probably on this forum) of using a self tapping screw, I guess it's positioning might be a little critical though.

Regards

If you have one of the clips, I am sure someone on here would print you one off on their 3D printer.

With how cheap 3D printers are these days, it's something the club could easily invest in and print various parts. I found free files for at least 3 parts/fixes a while back.
