    Speedo Cable Oil Seal?

    Hey guys. I just received the attached pic from Mike at British Speedo of my unit on his desk. He told me the root cause of my issue was oil/grease in the gauge that had come from the cable and not to re-install the speedo until I had solved the root cause. I have looked at the Parts Manual and...

    Odometer Reset Arm removal

    Simple question but does the odometer reset arm simply unscrew from the bottom of the Speedo housing? I’m afraid of putting too much pressure on it and breaking something as it’s very tight. There’s an outer cover on the arm that makes it more difficult to grip. Any tips? Thanks

    Alpine Innovations Weber Carb Conversion

    Hey all I don't post very often and I guess I can't put anything in the "Stock" Alpine thread anymore. After years of unreliability and below average performance I finally bit the bullet and purchased the full curved manifold, Weber carb, and K&N filter conversion kit from Jerome at Alpine...

    Excited to share. New life, new energy!

    We've owned our Alpine for almost 20 years but unfortunately, for a bunch of different reasons (wouldn't start, wouldn't stop...) have hardly used it in the last 10. It's amazing how confidence in reliability can hurt the relationship between car and driver. But I am delighted to say that is...

    Series 3 Early Brake Booster part

    I am looking for a servo filter and cover for an early Girling MKIIA brake booster (see enclosed picture). I ordered and received the part numbered BP67 from Sunbeam Specialties but this is not the same as the part on my car. The one from SS is smaller and it is held in place by a screw down the...

    Brake Servo

    It looks like there are 2 types of air filter on the Girling MK IIA Brake Servos. One is held in with a screw down the middle, the other is held on with a retaining clip. My car has the older retaining clip. Unfortunately the plastic cover got broken and the only part I can find available is the...

    Brake Servo Rebuild

    I have a nice, original S3 Alpine but have been having problems with the brake servo for a while now. A few months ago I found I was losing brake fluid into the servo housing and a replacement kit fixed the problem, but now the brake pedal sticks on. I believe this is a common problem when...
