Just fitted some LED sidelights on the 322 to be a bit more of a match to the HID headlights...those 'yellow' sidelight bulbs were getting to me every time I looked at them :eek:

:cool:
 
Replaced the spill-off pipes.

Nice quick fix, I was mentally preparing myself for the fuel pump when overnight it suddenly took ages to crank. Back to starting on the first turn now :)
 
Nothing in over 6 weeks. Feet new glows this week (time allowing), then with luck, she'll start. Just in time for winter. :D
 
Used low range for the 1st time to get up a steepish bank, went up no problem and on road tyres, Very happy. :5bdriving:

Helped a friend fit a hot start kit. One of the timed ones not the cheap relay things. we took it for a drive to get it nice and warm got home turned it off left if for five mins and boom struck up straight away! where as before it would turn over for a few seconds then fire. I was very impressed.
 
swopped out the rear diff and replaced the leaking half shaft seal while i was at it. disscoverd the wheel bearing is bolloxed due to the leaking seal.
 
It's a labour of love dave !

We had a failed wheel bearing at 90k on the silver one. at least thats one more thing that 'wont' need doing in the future !

You still have a nice one, and i've seen some right rotters for more than you paid for yours.
 
Changed my transmission oil - got soaked in fluid...Plugged in an exhaust O2 sensor which was left unplugged by a previous mechanic...then drove it to an Equestrian shop to buy some pointless tat - sorry I mean tack.

Took her home. 416 miles including a trip through central London during rush hour cost me £99.10 click to click 129.9 a litre). Although I couldn't help myself and made it a square £100. But that is because I love the look of shock and confusion when I casually walk in to pay.

Expensive trip home though. Going to be £200 return.
