Hi again,
Ok, give it to me straight - What have I REALLY let miself in for?
Is it possible to get a 1980 LWB Station Wagon with Diesel 2.25 in it up to such a standard that I can drive to the Lakedistrict and back without worrying? Are all my weekends now hijacked by my ever growing list of things to do?
That said, after years of company cars and 'getting a man in' I've really enjoyed mi first two jobs on mi first landy. 1. Starter motor swap and 2. Just cleaned up mi air filter (oil bath type). I've even bought a small tub of swarfega !!
So anyway, back to mi hissing. When bought no hissing. Left standing for two weeks while I sourced a starter motor and now I've got a hissing at the accelerator linkage where it joins the air intake manifold. Is this a, or going to cause a, problem?
OR, should I sell it and buy a disco???
Cheers,
Scared DIYer but putting on a brave face for the wife's sake.
