Hi all,

I am thinking of doing some maintenance on my Tiger and thought the list
members may have some helpful suggestions for me....

Waterless coolant....

Has anyone tried the Evans waterless coolant? Seems expensive but their
website has interesting claims:-

https://www.evanscooling.com/

We have had 4 days of 40C (108F)+ temps here in Perth, West Australia (I think
we might be the epicentre of global warming!!). If this keeps up I might have
to get some of this waterless coolant and a good AC for the Tiger!!

The time has come to replace the stock generator!

I tried searching the archives (fantastic source of info) but got the dreaded
404 "Not found" error when I searched "Alternator Generator"

The search returned this which is a broken link I think.

Anyways....appreciate your thoughts on what is a good alternator to fit (and
still keep my charge light)?

Last question....

Split Brake circuit master cylinder

What is the easiest brake master cylinder to fit to get the improved safety of
a split brake system. I am currently using my car without the troublesome
Girling Power Brake and have become quite used to the high (but not too high)
pedal pressure. Has anyone tried a slightly smaller MC piston diameter to
increase mechanical advantage...would doing this cause "not enough displaced
fluid" problems??

Thanks once again for your help.....

I believe you were look for an alternator inside the generator body.

powermastermotorsports.com/powergen.html

There maybe other sites too.

If you just want to swap in a period style alternator; the process is not
that hard.
I did that by putting an electronic regulator on the alternator, welding up
an alternator bracket and turning the generator voltage regulator into a
junction box.
