I don't know what inlet manifold is on a 135, but I replaced the stat on my 97F using a working combination of above and under the motor. It's very awkward but do able with patience and determination both of which are necessary when working on these cars. The job will be much harder if the 135 has an oil cooler!!
Good luck with whatever you decide to do. Glyn.

Hi I replaced the pump on one of these earlier in the year, it's not such a hard/difficult job as you might think.
But I checked that the old pump was not working before removing and replacing it with new that was purchased from ebay £65 or thereabouts. 12 months without use would have taken its toll on the pump being sat in old useless petrol. Good luck and its not hard to replace it. Glyn.

Hi so why do you want to change to a PRT? I thought about doing the same conversion but was advised not to bother by others on another site, so I stayed with the original system on my 2002 TF but fitted an 88 degree stat with a jiggle valve incorporated. Can't say anything about it as yet because I'm still working on the engine and underbody surface rust. I also noticed on Rimmers site that some of the pipes need for that system are NLA.
But good luck with whatever you decide to do. Glyn.

I agree with what you've said about the sills on that car that KidCreation is looking at,
looks very much like they have been spayed before.

I had occasion to purchase a S/H nissen rad for my TF,  so my question is can I test it for leaks by just filling it with water or would it be best to get it pressure tested?
  Its not fitted to the car.   Thanks Glyn.

It seems that my question and thought were bang on with regard to a plastic throttle body.
As we know its a sticky situation.

Does the car have a plastic throttle body? Probably not but just a thought.
