Nothing a big hammer wouldn't sort out.View attachment 172948 out with old (and bent) and in with the new!! Both ball joint ends fitted with lemforder units.
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
I think I have the only 62++ cc listed on DVLA

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
No coppaslip again! Were they **c*ing allergic
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
My current plan is to borrow a soldering iron somehow With solder, use it weld the snapped bit back to the plug, then solder the cable to the tip
Any ideas greatly appreciated

Is it your daily runner?
Your going to need some soldering iron to heat that glowplug tip up!!
And don't forget the plugs are heated to get them to work... Your solder could fail...

If the other 5 glowplugs are good, it will start OK with 1 not working.Today, you know when you start one job, then notice a second job. Think il do that while I'm here....

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.
Bet she burns some gallons
It’s only marginally worse than the Rover V8. Unless you enjoy it too much

Fit new plugs. That is my idea.

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 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?
Fun fun fun ...

Don't think you can transfer if there is a break between taxed and sorned,.Go online and sorn it, should be instant and free
Just crimp a new ring terminal on the wire and stick a new plug in it and stop being a skinflint !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

SORN doesn't seem to be the problem, the issue is no tax and this could be weeks away yet and I can't afford to tax another with selling one (of four) off the drive..
