Thinking about it...might be wrong here..but don't early models only pump on cranking, later models just ign on?? Mines 2001 so I just have to cycle the ign. I do have a short length of wire with two male spades on it in my door pocket that I made up when I first got my 38. I actually completely ran out of fuel once but had a gerry can in the back. Took around 10 ign cycles iirc to get the completely empty system full again and started up.
I put the empty but damp fuel filter in my wood burner, they go well lol.

Same short length of wire with two spades is useful for running the EAS Pump manually as well !!

Split pin. The draw isn't massive so it won't heat up in your fingers

Yes. You bridge the relay and run the pump for for bit on earlies, same as fuel flow test. you just use the ignition on yours.

Ahh, I remember now. I did the flow test with no available help, hence the jumper wire I made up. I could hold the measure pot with one hand and bridge the relay with the other, used the stop watch on my phone.

You've got to do the water drain thingy bob tight enough when you put the new filter on or it wee's everywhere

When a son available I send them underneath to take out sump plug to drain oil when no one available pipe down dip stick pipe and use suction pump.
Useful for cleaning chimneys too.

Did the oil and filter on mine also, along with the fuel filter. I've got the new wheel bearing g to fit and a slimline reverse light which is brighter than the candles in the boot lid. We have no street lighting out here in the sticks and little more would help
Have you seen my setup?! No lights here.

The P38 has been retired from daily duties to now being a weekend only car. It’s thanked me by throwing a constant ABS/TC fault, so need to get the Nanocom on that..
But today has certainly highlighted the need for me to fix the air con. There’s certainly a leak from somewhere, so I think a new condenser is likely the culprit (maybe the compressor), it’s an early (as in 1st Jan) 2001 model - I am struggling to find out definitively if I can procure one of the cheaper early condensers or if I need to dig deeper and get a late one. Anyone have any advice?

Early one can be used, means a minor chopping off of some lower brackets AND a new compressor to condensor pipe. Island sell them, not cheap though.
