Early ones and some later poverty models.
The only thing that slips faster than the liners is the amount of time between visits to the petrol pump.
So much oil leaks out of a V8, every time you park somewhere America tries to invade.
The block is so porous, after the liners slip most get a new job as a colander.
I think I am getting the hang of this now.
Mine's not so tiny!

Why do you get two fingers and your thumb wet when you have a pee then?
That's when the end gets away from me and drops in the bowl.

After ignoring tiny for the last few weeks I put the repainted rear caliper back on refitted wheel so that's 3 done 1 to go.
Battery is flat so either a drain or knackered. Went to charge remembered I had a new battery terminal to fit sorted that and dug out my solar charger and that is ready to be connected once battery is fully charged. I plan to wire a cig lighter socket in the boot for the panel if it works.

Fired her up for the first time in 3 weeks (I too have a solar panel, and a 12v on the parcel shelf support). Purring, so I took her round a few local lanes, then got home and treat her to some snow foam.

Mine gets snow foamed every week even if I don't use it lol
Did the heater O rings with Stufer's guide. 4 hours. Didnt bother taking photos as its a well documented game! I have since found threads of people fussing over how the seals sat as they have experienced leaks afterwards.... now worried! think I got it right through.
Quick question - my P38 has a few gaps in service history - I would like to do a few jobs in order to maintain rather than discover wear later - greasing UJs etc? Can anyone suggest a list of things you would get done if you bought one and weren't sure of service history? It is a 99 Thor 4.0 - has a Turner block and is on coils so no need to worry about air maintenance. And I love the coils so please don't have 'get back to air' at the top of the list!

Removed my turbo for a refurb and attempted to remove my intercooler (without success!), what a pig of a job the intercooler is turning out to be.

Another years MOT couple of advisories, seat belt stitching slightly frayed ns/r, slight corrosion on brake hose ferrules, nothing to worry about really, I was under it recently when I replaced the shocks and gave it a good check, seems they're getting more fussy about things these days.

Replaced my broken DSP amp and the HEVAC unit as LCD display had gone on the fritz. Need to re-calibrate blend motors with Faultmate though. Next jobs are Valley gasket and rocker cover gaskets.
What was wrong with your DSP amp???? I'm after a scrap one to see if I can fix it cos they cost stupid money
