BULB ANNIVERSARY!
Nov 2nd
NEOLUX celebrates its 100th anniversary!
For a brand to stay successful for a century gives an indication of the quality of its products and ability to adapt to the industry’s needs. Neolux is one such brand that, this year, is celebrating its centenary and taking a look back on its journey over the past 100 years.
It all began in 1923, when S.A. Lumière from Goldau, Switzerland built a factory in Molsheim, France called La Lampe NEOLUX S.à.r.l. that employed 120 staff and had an annual production of 800,000 light bulbs, creating an exciting new business in the automotive industry. Shortly after, More >

BISH BASH ‘BOSCH’ FROM BURTON POWER!
Oct 26th
Burton Power is now stocking the new Bosch Motorsport 0580464200 fuel injection pump which has superseded the Bosch 044 pump. The previous pump was often referred to as the ‘Group A’ pump – but, in fact, it was widely used for all areas of motorsport.
The new inline roller cell fuel pump offers various benefits over its predecessor. Flow rate is increased by 15 per cent and the unit weighs about 15 per cent less than the old 044 pump. It is also designed to handle Ethanol (E85) as well as being suitable for use with RE85 and diesel fuel.

QUALITY WATER PUMPS
Oct 26th
Mechanical belt-driven water pumps take a significant amount of power to operate. The Davies, Craig EWP80 Electric Water Pump not only rid your engine of parasitic power loss, it also increases cooling capacity to eliminate heat soak for better engine temperature control and reduced fuel consumption.
The lightweight aluminium EWP80’s design allows for easy mounting into the bottom radiator hose. It delivers 23.78 GPM of coolant flow at 12 volts while drawing only 7.5 amps.
The pump is recommended as a replacement for mechanical water pumps on naturally aspirated engines up to two litres. It’s also ideal for use as an auxiliary More >
NO HEAT SOAK FOR MX-5
Oct 26th
The surprisingly warm early autumn weather means that Mazda MX-5 – or kitcars based on same – owners can go on enjoying their cars for longer this year, but when it’s unseasonably warm, the last thing you want is more heat coming through the firewall, floor or transmission tunnel.
That’s where the latest offering from DEI comes in. The DEI Thermal & Acoustic Kit for the 1990-2005 MX-5 insulates the interior from radiating heat but when the weather does change it will keep the interior warmer so you can continue driving long into the winter months.
Annoying sounds like road, tyre and More >
IT’S ALL ABOUT THE HEAT
Oct 26th
Laser Tools has just introduced its new Heat Inductor Kit (part number 8680), a versatile and powerful tool that utilises advanced heating technology to loosen rusted or seized nuts, bolts, and other components.
Advanced heating technology: the heat inductor uses induction heating (rated at a powerful 1000W), to rapidly and precisely heat targeted metal components. This process effectively expands the metal, breaking the rust or corrosion bond without damaging surrounding materials. This allows for a quick and efficient method of loosening seized or corroded metal components without the need for an open flame. The result is a much safer and more More >
BED BUGS BAD; BEETLES GOOD
Oct 26th
With winter well on its way, it is a good time to think about where you might store your car during the colder, darker, and wetter months.
Without access to a cosy garage, a driveway or the street outside is probably the best we can hope for, but there is much more to keeping your car covered outside than an old tarpaulin.
Sadly, the simple tarp will do more harm than good with the condensation it creates on the inside, and its less than paintwork-friendly plasticised coating.

KEEP WARM IN YOUR GARAGE THIS WINTER

Machine Mart has grown their extensive range of heaters with two new efficient Clarke Devil models.
The first of these models is the Clarke Devil 370SPD Remote Controlled Quartz Halogen Heater. Providing instant, clean, odour-free infrared heat, this heater is ideal when spot heating of objects or persons is required.
