Parts identification

[tr7dan]

So, I have a large box of parts which I had zinc plated when I dismantled the engine bay area of my 1980 DHC about twenty years ago and have just spent a few hours sorting them into labelled plastic bags using the factory parts book and the notes which I made at the time.

Of course, like the proverbial Ikea bookcase, there are a few small parts left over which I can't quite place - it may become obvious when I start to reassemble the car but in the meantime I would be grateful if anyone could identify these parts please ?

No's 6 and 7 are the same with captive washers....

Number 2 is the bracket that holds the windscreen washer pump, probably held in place by the two threaded screws. The single threaded screw could be for attaching the bonnet stay to the turret. Hope this helps.

Ok, thanks for that.

Yep, no 2 bracket, as you say, is off the washer pump but isn't shown separately in the parts catalogue so that's why I missed it. I must have removed it from the washer pump to get it plated and forgot to list it.

The single screw looks nothing like the screw in the parts book for holding the bonnet stay to suspension turret but I googled the part no and at least one supplier is listing it as 'shouldered screw' which seems to describe it perfectly - also it looks right for fitting the thackeray washer to so it could be the one

1 = spring retainer from the bonnet striker pin
3 = bracket mounted to the brake servo to keep hose from servo to manifold in position (spring clip missing)
5 = screw for mounting brake reservoir to master cylinder (one of two ...)

#4 looks like a hard-line, or cable clip. Perhaps the bonnet release cable clip? Choke?
