Have you tried Marshall Moore of Classic Motors at http://www.cmw-tvr.com which now has Marcos parts.

Thanks,

Subject: [MarcosManiacs] Oilprussere hose and adaptor

As mentioned in earlier posts, the oil pressure hose on my \u201969 3.0 V6 Marcos broke during the winter.

I have temporarily replaced it with another hose, just so I can use the car.

But; when testing it, it now leaks from the adaptor.

I have sent a mail to Burton in order to order the correct parts.

But it takes loooong time to get answers from them.

Is there another source for parts for the 3.0 V6 Essex engine, quicker than Burton Power?

Thankful for quick reply \u2013 summer is approaching, fast\u2026

New hose has been fitted , but I wonder...

Do I have to fill the hose with oil, prior to connecting it to the oil pressure gauge \u2013 or will the pressure from the engine arrange this?
