out with old (and bent) and in with the new!! Both ball joint ends fitted with lemforder units. :cool:
 
I did Nothing with it but did fill in a little bit of paperwork;) to hopefully gets it some shiny new number plates towards end of the week.
Let’s see how that goes:)

So tomorrow is check everything and give it a run up the road, might be a little hooligan involved once warm:D

I think I have the only 62++ cc listed on DVLA:p:)

Today, you know when you start one job, then notice a second job. Think il do that while I'm here....

Then notice a third job.


Then you've gone too far.






Well I did that :eek:

No coppaslip again! Were they **c*ing allergic :rolleyes::mad:
I don't have replacements was planning on cleaning them up and the copper ring is sheared off the cable :( It's cylinder one right behind the water pipe :oops:

My current plan is to borrow a soldering iron somehow :confused: With solder, use it weld the snapped bit back to the plug, then solder the cable to the tip

Any ideas greatly appreciated :)

If the other 5 glowplugs are good, it will start OK with 1 not working.

Put new Beru ones in as soon as Eurocarparts do one of their 75% off deals - or ring their London office and see what you can get off. Again, I put the part numbers on here somewhere as Beru have their own ones different to Land Rover.

Fit new plugs. That is my idea.
 
Put the number plate up for sale today off the new one. Personalized numbers mean nothing to me and hopefully it will pay for parts and I'll take whatever number DVLA send me.
 
New plugs will still have no copper ring to supply voltage so still soldered? I'm not comfortable with auto electrics but will give anything a go. It is my daily runner :eek: but I don't need to go anywhere today. might aswell try temporary fix as blank the cabe.
I'm glad it didn't snap off in the block and atleast have the body to blank the hole. It has a nice dip where it snapped so may join okay if it doesn't melt on startup :) Maybe JB weld?

Just crimp a new ring terminal on the wire and stick a new plug in it and stop being a skinflint !
