    anyone know how to remove the rear wheel inner plastic arches on an f1 360, got one side off but having problems with teh other side (with all the f1 pumps etc) right side if you look from back of car. have removed all the bolts from in the wheel well itself but there must be something above bolted to it that is stopping it from enabling it to come down and be removed ....

    any ideas ?

    does anyone have a workshop manual ?

    There is an oil cooler above the inner wheel arch cover. Ducted cooling air from the fender scoop goes through a duct, then oil cooler, then into the wheel arch via the inner wheel arch cover. It's a similar setup on a 360 Challenge. IIRC you have to unscrew the oil cooler bracket and a few other screws to detach the oil cooler from the inner wheel arch and allow enough wiggle room to take out the inner arch.

    If I recall correctly there are two sections? I've only taken off the section to the rear of the car. There are four bolts/screws that need to be released and then it was just a matter of "teasing" it out. There is some flexibility in the unit and as I recall I had to bend it somewhat to clear whatever it was snagging on.

    Hope this helps!
