Re: relays
Do you have any to compare, so you can see where they clip on to, is it the front or sides, then you could use a flat blade screwdriver to help to release them

Re: MOT advisories
Hi I would guess that the leak is probably a rocker cover gasket As for the blue smoke, it might be just due to where it has been standing, if all you do is taking it from home to the garage and it’s only done 50 miles then it’s possible.

Re: Sourcing 1996 v16 Distributor Parts
