The difference is only really a few small bits of plastic isnt it?

All what I mentioned are cost free things you can do If its the big rubber inlet hose, there is a quick fix to get you by. Its a bit of a bodge however. If you want to start throwing money at it then there are lots of things you can do. Check for a bad earth on the fuel sender and run a seperate earth to it if you need.

Check for any air leaks and clean out all the throttle body etc. for a starter.

I would tend to think its the brakes that are faulty, not the master cylinder. I think you are looking too deep. ;D

I dont understand Rich, surely they only test one (front or rear) axle brake efficiency at a time? I didnt think they checked all four brakes simultaneously. Maybe you have duff brakes at these opposite corners and its not the master cylinder at all?

Very occasionally the fuse box literally melts and it is damaged around the fuse

The roof has seen better days.

Stick with it.

"e" is German, einspritzung (injection) I think. Yours has just a carburetter (vergaser), hence yours is an SR.

Its a good idea but I think low emission zones will be of more concern in the future.
