We think, an instrument should look that way after a restoration. And it should work as it looks, flawlessly. These pictures show a float of an Austin-Healey BJ8 after its restoration.
We have your instruments restored professionally. In doing so you can take it for granted to get back your very own instrument.
The restoration is affected by great technical skills and is based on experience for decades extending over several generations. We cooperate only with top-companies which have proved to be able to suffice our customer's and our high demands. Continuous quality controls guarantee a high and constant quality
See for yourself our first class service and give your Austin-Healey the instruments which will enhance its condition considerably, regardless of its current state. Send us your old float and let us take care of the work which will make this item complement the perfection of the mechanics and that will work just like new.
The price listed is valid in case we receive a basically repairable unit. Depending on the condition of the unit the price may vary about 10% up or down. In case the price for the restoration of the float will extend this sum due to extensive work necessary, we'll inform you beforehand.
The fuel tank was mounted in the boot as before and held 12 imperial gallons (54 litres). However, the fuel filler pipe was now in the front right-hand corner of the tank, leading up to chrome-plated bayonet fixing filler cap on the right-hand side of the rear tonneau panel. On the 3000 models, a locking filler cap could be specified as a factory-fitted extra.
The SU electric fuel pump was originally mounted behind the heel board on the left-hand side of the car. Originally, the 100-Six had an HP-type fuel pump, but from chassis number BN4/60413, in March 1958, this was replaced by a higher-capacity LCS-type, also found on all BN6 cars and carried forward on the 3000 models. The fuel pump specification was upgraded in March 1961, and in Januar 1962 the pump was moved from the left-hand to the right-hand side of the car, to minimise the risk of fuel vaporisation due to heat from the exhaust pipe. Finally, on the Mark III model from chassis number H-BJ8/28225 in August 1964, the new AUF301 fuel pump was introduced, being of a more modern design and of still higher capacity.
