I can see the surround is plastic, does the centre move within the surround?There's something familiar about it, some sort of cover cap or blanking plate ..... grrrrr
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #64 – July 22, 2021, 04:19:45 PM It's actually a new one (sealed and good brand) and like you I thought the finish was a little off.The 'disc' is metal and will turn under thumb pressure... not a cap or blank. Last Edit: July 22, 2021, 04:21:25 PM by L90E
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #65 – July 23, 2021, 11:59:22 AM I was going to show you a photo of the reverse side as it's noticibly different, but I can't find the thing anywhere... set it down and it's evaporatedInstead, by way of your 24 hour clue - it's situated in the engine bay area of the car.
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #66 – July 23, 2021, 12:21:22 PM Is it engine based, or engine bay based.i.e. is it on some engines and not others?
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #67 – July 23, 2021, 12:35:06 PM Wouldn't like to commit and say it's from some types of MK2 and not others as I don't know - I got it for an 8v PBIt's an internal part.
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #68 – July 23, 2021, 12:46:50 PM You know what, I'm sure I've had this thing in my hands in recent months, now desperately trying to think what jobs I've done.
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #69 – July 23, 2021, 02:19:34 PM Is the whole thing fitted?Or is the plastic part something to just hold it together in transport?
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #70 – July 23, 2021, 03:05:23 PM As far as I'm aware that's how it's fitted... sly_gti knows what it is, without giving to much away he could maybe confirm that.@sly_gti
Re: Test your knowledge! Reply #71 – July 23, 2021, 07:42:32 PM Found it... intentionally took this piccie of the reverse side a little bit further back. Didn't want to make it too easy and you see any numbers etc., but didn't plan it to be just so blurry, sorry.
