Hey guys!
So I spent the last hour modifying my actuator and bracket to fit, bent the actuator rod and it's all honky dory!
The only piece left for the puzzle is the small ring/circlip that sits on top of the actuator rod to lock it onto the flapper door.
What is the exact name of this part, so that I may order it.
Thanks guys!
Dan.

Thanks Dann. Low and behold I'll walk into repco asking for said part and get a bunch of weird looks. The staff at the local repco are a bunch of space cadets.

You can buy a mixed packet at Repco, located on the tree stands, where all the nuts and bolts hang.

REPCO needs more Emily's.
When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?

OK, but REPCO needs more Emily's.
Don't worry about dying, worry about not living!

I can hear SCA screaming for Emily's.
Greg.
Come to think of it, there is a Burson's in Bendigo that could do with two!
