Hi

Can anyone direct me to instructions on how to check the all important soft top drain holes.

All searches I have done so far lead me to this link...........

Which no longer shows the photos making it difficult to follow.

Thanks in advance
 
Thats a great PDF, I have taken a copy for future reference. Its not a task I could do, but I am sure it will prove helpful to a mate who can!
 
Hi Bladeowner

The info in your sig link is very interesting reading, and will no doubt be of use in the near future; especially the info on changing / inspecting spark plugs, I'm planning to do this soon.

Thanks for sharing it!
 
Thanks must go to the people that made the effort to write it originally. :)

After the loss of one roof hyd motor and £610 I decided to ensure my roof drains remained clear to avoid a recurrence of the failure. The garage repairing the car assured me they had cleared the drains, which should now remain unblocked for the life of the car. Not wanting to tempt fate I spent 70 pence on 1.5m of net curtain wire from Wilko, which fitted down the drains and cleared them perfectly, once I had gained access to the upper collection points either side by half opening the roof. A quick test with a small amount of water poured down the back of the hood once it was closed again, brought a smile to my face as a trickle of water appeared below both drain lower openings, proving they worked as advertised.
I will conduct this process a couple of times a year to ensure no debris collects in future.
Hope this works for your cars too.
