fixed speedo and changed tank sender, now i know when i'm gonna run outta diesel lol
Cleaned the thermo, on my freelander and refitted it. I think it looks ok, but as I'm still learning ill be checking very frequently the levels,
may still go for a new one is a PRT ive been reading about the same as the one that comes with the 1.8i
(Does it work backwards) ?
The two top hose's get very hot and after some time the thermo will open and allows hot water into the bottom hose to the rad.
The next job is checking the fan, i havnt seen it working yet, the fuse is ok but i need to check the fan motor, then top up the Gearbox, then put back the guard.
lovin it.

jumped started it off me tranny van (left the feckin lights on all night eeedjit)
Just got in after fitting a straight through exhaust pipe instead of the centre box, so only silencing is the back box, which might be fun driving home if it gets pulled off whilst off-roading!!
Again ...
Not looking for more power, as such, just stopping the bloody thing rattling against the body. Sounds nice, hopefully it might free the turbo a little to get even more mpg's from it. Already de-egr'd, de-catted, tweaked fuel pump etc.
Be interesting to see how long I like the deeper sound when i'm towing under power uphill on the motorway mind ...

Ah've bin ****in' aboot tryin' tae paint me new doors! Got one stripped back, primed and painted... sort of!!
Ah was tryin' tae be too quick in paintin' the door that the primer never had a chance to dry and kept stickin' layers of paint on before the first one had touch dried anaw. Took it all back off and re-primed it before rubbin' back and doin' it right this time. Was quite chuffed with the door until ah took it out to see how the colour was against the rest of the paint.... it didnae match!!!!!
Ah bought a wee tin of shop mixed paint instead of the big tin of factory mixed paint as ah did before... that'll teach me!
Anyways, here's a couple of photies fur ye's.....
