Re: NOS Relays

I have been looking for a Sipea 0444 for ages. Do you still have one?

Does anybody know what the code after the 0444 means? I have seen 6J, 6F and 7L.

Re: Advice sought - should I check timing?

Thankfully the front pulley didn’t come right off - it was in the position shown in the first picture.
I think I will check as a precaution though.

Advice sought - should I check timing?

HI folks. I started project Sprint up the other day after changing the plug leads. Anyway, a few minutes later, the fan belt pulley fell off.......

Sipea 0444 6J or 6F

Trying to find an equivalent to the relay mentioned in the title. I gather that with Sipea 0440 is normally open, 0444 means normally closed but I don’t know what the difference between version 6J and 6F. This is for the mystery relay I have been trying to find out about for ages - the one to the ri...
