just changed an inner tube, subborn damn thing, only taken me an hour, next time will be quicker :)
am going to need some better tyre irons for changing a tyre tho :)
 
Got underneath the Defender today and checked out the exhaust system. The tail pipe is buggered but the rest seems in good nick so ordered a tail end section from Paddocks together with a new 88 degree thermostat and a new sender unit. When the weather gets better I want to sort out this heating problem or lack of heat I should say. Looks like you have to drill out the rivets to get to the heater matrix. I will wait till my stuff arrives then see what else I can bugger up whilst my hands are dirty. Something had to go, its been running very well for the last six months or so.
 
Oil/filter change, sump gasket... There wasnt one!! :-/ there is now.
Checked sparks. Put back, started it....
Gas ran out.... Petrol.. Aah, I remember, the zenith was playing up on petrol, whipped it off, sprayed with carb cleaner, left it, fitted old webber that I remember was a bitch when I changed engine, yep, still a bitch... Aah, what about that older zenith that has been sitting in the corner for ages untouched, looking sorry for itself? Slightly scorched on one side from a fire maybe...
Started first time, and growled... Wondered why my mph was going down and down recently... Lucky I kept the battered old zenith... Dark and rainy again now... Time to stop.
 
you got pictures?

Before grinding off millscale and other ****e but yeah, looks like this
