I’ve been in lockdown without my P38 too long
I’m confused, either you want me go help this guy or go give him a dixie?
Either way I’m tempted

On a lighter note..
Finally fitted my exhaust, well from middle box to back. Not as bad job as I expected. Bit scary waving an angle grinder around a plastic petrol tank and gas pipes though..
Old.. original Landrover part.
New...
Just hope my new one lasts as long.

Phew..!!I still got it just don’t get to use it
A well worth journey and nice to meet you both face to face. Have you tried the radio yet?350Km round trip with trailer pushing a 50Kmh headwind on the way down which turned into a cross wind for the return, so 22mpg at 70mph doesn't seem too bad

No, I cleaned the radio and looked at your driver pack

Very windy today and no one about so been down to the car park have root around. Disconnected the battery for half hour give it a reset, checked all fluids and topped up wiper washers, spills okay, intercooler pipes off and give wipe out. Got glovebox out without too much damage and reinstalled with the button now armed this time Reconnected no irregular beeps all windows set, previous alarm fault from headlining now gone. Headlining still looks great
Had small engine oil leak running down from cam plate on the front dribbling over the thermostat housing? Took the 13mm bolts out (one is a pin) eased it off a little cleaned it up and bolted it back up tight. Check again after a run may go out look for fuel tomorrow

Not very happy with the top rear shock mounts, all are in as new condition, it's just that they are the horrid (to me anyway) big washer and split pin jobbies. Fitted new shocks last year and remember struggling to compress everything to get the split pin in, now there is a slight amount of slack in the system which I would like to get rid of. The bushes are poly type in 2 parts, would I be right in thinking they would be better with a 1 part bush pushed into the top ring??
Another option may be to change the shock mounts to the bolt type, are the "footprint/bolt holes the same??

Nice!
Mate of mine built a Cobra copy based on a V12 Jag. was nice too. Handled much much better than the original Cobra!

Whats the front n/s spark plug like? Even the Stealers never bothered to change them as my friend foumd out.being situated under the a/c compressor they were a bastard to change. I had to modify a plug spanner to do the job.
I grabbed some my brother removed from a defender as I am not keen on the split pin type either. The bolt holes lined up but the pin was at a different height. I guess there may be bolt type on a D1?
