A lick is the same as a like. When the forum changed over we were given "like's" for the first time. Some peeps like every post they read by clicking like on it, so we started calling them licks after the windows lickers on ere.
Hi Hippo
I thought you would have put out to graze the serengeti by now, you seem to have been saving freelanders forever.
I won't register for the Hawkeye as I never solved my auto box problem so no longer have a Freelander, but very generous of you and your friend to give one away.

I have had so many problems just lately but I have just got everything ok now, but I had to pay to have the faults read so I could do with one as I am dreading the next round it is like trying to fight mike Tyson with both my hands tied behind my back .

Celebrating me 14th year of Freelandering this year. It's been difficult at times and some of the fixes costly but well worth it. I've bought ma hippo loads of new parts so he's as good as new and will last many more years. These days it's a lot easier financially as I fund my Freelandering by collecting tratter parts to sell ont web. Anything bright yellow or orange comes oft easily and there's plenty of mugs wanting to buy it. Led lights, roof racks and chrome bling are also good sellers. Supply is plentiful and easy to get hold of as they just unscrew.

I have been freelandering since 2001 and still enjoy it except trying to get the sender unit back into the tank on my 2006 td4 auto hse

There's a special BMW tool for the locking ring.
Also put the seal onto the tank first and then insert the fuel sender module
Lot easier to do

Not many will have the pump locking tool thing. I marked my locking ring and tank before taking it oft so I knew roughly where the ring had been turned to secure it previously. Scratched it as the fool would clean it oft with it being petrol. Not perfect but gives an eggsample. If I were to do it again I would also mark the point where the ring comes oft, so I know which thread to start it oft on when putting it back. It's like a jam jar thread. I also found it easier to fit the seal to the tank and not the pump. I also fitted the wrong size seal as mine was different... but that's another long story. Also dropped me screw driver in the tank anorl. Screwdriver was ok after a nap.

Not spotted this Fred, must have been painting, again.
Won't enter though, having a qualified auto electrician as a brother in law has its perks, and I have my own basic machine.
Good luck to all.
