Have done anything... but have spotted a drip, a new drip, the firs one in fact! That has appeared on the passenger side wheel area... not sure if its the break caliper that is letting go, or something to do with the ball join... what ever it is, Im sad 
First leak on my 98 TD 90

Passed Mot. Checked on the way to see if it still jumps out of first and reverse after I rebuilt the gearbox. And it didn't.
But it did jump out of second; which it didn't do before. Bastard thing.
Oh, and after being in the sun for a while, this happened...
Did I use enough wax oil, do you think?

Yes 3/4 of a miles worth. And yes there was a point when I thought it could end in tears but Xan kept going and Debbie kept laughing.
And now I can't stop laughing about it myself

In last 24 hours, I (with my ever helpful son) have replaced inlet manifold gasket, turbo elbow gasket, removed yet more redundant wires, replaced the air filter, fitted the little rubber dump valve that was missing and fitted a new fuel filter. Now need to prime the system and off we go, I hope!!!

Welded up the passenger footwell, and sworn at it a lot as I have spent the last 6 hours trying to change the top bushes on the rear shocks, given up and ordered new shocks with the :censored: things fitted.:frusty:

Fitted new rear brake pads, hopefully they wont slip in the calipers like the last ones....
Checked the fluids noticed engine oil was low, so topped up accordingly ... checked level and the oil on dipstick was watery on closer inspection it smelt like brake fluid!! No idea how this has come about, so ended up draining the oil and flushing out with some 5litres of old oil that I had from the last oil change. Changed the oil filter, refilled with new oil and she seems ok so far, just hope I got all the cr@p out ...

Worst fill up ..ever
Buy a big funnel (I used to use a right angle funnel)
Fit it in your fuel filler neck
open a bottle of SVO and place it upside down in funnel
open another bottle of svo and place it upside down in funnel
repeat the same procedure until the funnel is full of up-turned bottles (probably 5 or 6 of em).
As one bottle empties then remove it and replace it with a full one. It takes a lot less time brimming your tank like this.
While doing this, do the same with a funnel in the neck of any empty jerry cans. I use to fill up jerry cans aswell as my tank. That saved me having a boot full of plastic bottles and sped up any filling up the next time around.
