OK Well that's torn it! Fired up the V8 with just the downpipes on it. Kai nearly wet himself with delight at the sound of that lovely V8 burbling away... Rose on the other hand came leggin it out of the house and confiscated the keys until we have the rest of the exhaust in place.

Philistine ;)
 
Hi Brett, if you get something planned for the Sunday of the bank holiday weekend PM me the details aswell please mate, CHEERS.
 
Hi all

Well with a lot of luck my landy will be back running this weekend and should hopefully be ok well at least for a little while so i can save some money for next time its not been cheap!

Hope everyone is ok and hope to see you all soon.

Brett count me in for santa pod :D dont wanna miss it!
 
Excellent, sunday is all good for me, really looking forward to getting out and clearing my mind. Always spare seats in mine if anyone wants to jump in that wouldn't be otherwise be able to make it.
 
The generosity of some people! (can't spell for sh1t)

Many thanks to Gibbo Phil for this evening, Kai has a smile on his face that I relly do not think will be accurately interpreted until he presents his first project for all to see! An otherwise unused toolbox with some tools and various useful bits and pieces that now has a 9 year old wondering ( can I use * for * dad?)

My own question of course( does that mean you will lose YOUR * instead of my * Kai?)

Thanks Phil. Hope to see you all for santa pod but unsure due to medical circumstances.

Jai... need to pump some grease into a prop.. have the grease but not the gun, are you around tomorrow night?

Cheers

Got a cold and feel like crap, hidding in a truck in the corner of the workshop using the internet on my phone, can't wait to get out and go home.
 
hmm - slight *clunk* noise when i take my foot off the accelerator. only noticed after having taken out the thick front mats.

idea's?

Click to expand...

That's suitably vague:doh: Guess you'll be checking out the whole transmission then. Prop shaft UJ's, suspension bushes, A frame bushes/ball joint but you never know, you could have an old bolt or something rolling around in the back or something. Good luck!
 
yup about as vague as it gets - sorry bout that. its on lifting from the accelerator, and over bumps at speed. only a slight knocking - looks like i may have to do some noseying around.

i need to learn these things fast - my europe road trip may well be morphing into a 3 continent 15 thousand mile jobby in the landy! gonna need to be pretty switched on technically by then!
 
shall we put a theoretical bet on what it could be?

I'll have transfer gear/gearbox output shaft slop,
Worn drive flanges/shafts only due to the milage it has covered,
UJ's,
Jai
