Sportrak towbar electrics

Forum: 

Hi, I have just purchased a 1997 sportrak (for my son actually), and we fitted a really nice towbar at the weekend (£80 from eBay). I now have to wire up the electrics, and I gather that there may be a tow electrics plug somewhere on the vehicle.

Needless to say, I cannot find the electrics plug, so can anyone please let me know where this is on the vehicle?. (I really dont want to scotchlock onto the lights wiring)

newbie

Forum: 

I am sick and tired of having to park my old polo at the bottom of the hill and lugging the shotgun to the top
Ok, so after looking at what the market has to offer in my price range I have bought a 96 sportrak elxi.
seems sound with only 66k (not warrantied) on the clock
is there anything i should get looked at apart from my sanity?

1.6 engine replacement sporttrack

Forum: 

Hi
I have just got a 1.6 sport track 1994 with a duff engine (ends gone) I was going to put diesel in to it but now thinking of just replacing the petrol lump after reading the forum.
Does any one know what else this engine is used in or what other engine would fit straight in Unknw
I would like to go with a 2 litre rather than the 1.6
Any help very welcome.
Thank's Gordon
