Bloody bsf 2ba screws, speedo fixin...

[Lord Icon]

Well I have learned all I can about the mysterious bsf thread pitch.. The po had removed the speedo cable and was not nice enough to leave the 3 screws in the holes , rather he has them somewhere for future use in his garage.
I have called on every known Rover parts supplier. I am told that Les has a small supply . I said bugger it.
...
I now have in transit from a nice screw and bolt supplier from the UK, a small batch of 1000 of these screws.
If anybody needs them , please call on me and I will spread the wealth.

Let the bsf fun begin...

I have both deliveries of the miserable small weird thread pitch cheesehead slotted buggers.
I ordered from the UK the proper 1/4 length, I also hedged my bets and ordered a stash from down under at the 5/16 size. Both came in today. Funny how the post is the same speed from Victoria Au as it is from Kent UK.
Now where is that speedo cable....?

You're a good man, Mr Icon!

Confirmed

There was some question as to the length of the required little 2ba bugger. I just set the speedo in George the series 3 and the 1/4 inch length fits well. One less thing on my "to do " list before the winter romp...
just an fyi...
Cheers.
