Black. It breaks up the bulkhead.

That might be an option. I should of mentioned that currently I have the later 300tdi sender fitted which is now knacked, it came with a second hand tank I got off ebay, the tank unfortunately leakedwhen I removed the cradle to clean it up so...

Finally after 5 years Ive managed to take a VNT TD5 around Marquenterre and its nothing short of incredible. Near limitless power and torque on tap when i need it. No huge run ups, no flooring it and snatching 3rd. Just driving up, mostly with...

If you are using the compression fittings drill.. Is there room to drill another hole in it & use a bulkhead fitting(allows the nylon fuel pipe through & then locks off) right angle out the tank & away you go… You can do the above on a 90 tank...

Better with the clip but can work without but there is a chance it may escape. All you need is a short length of a stiff pipe, I have used a bit of blue alkathene water pipe. Place clip on the rod and then slip on the pipe, needs to hold the...

Bike chain dry lube.(grey bottle from halfrauds)Comes in liquid form stops my chain getting rusty during mountain biking in the winter so should work on other things. Also Use it on the horse ramp hinges.

I realise it's been a while since my last post but to put a full stop under this... After debating whether or not to go big bucks and get a genuine Lucas relay or a blue box 'replace it in another couple of years' job i sat back and thought about...

I agree with the chaps above regarding repairs. Do not be tempted with doing a complete strip down overhaul unless this is really your thing, so many are never finished. Keep as a rolling restoration and enjoy each fix/improvement done as you use it.

No. I bought it planning to de-cat my 2001 D2, and when I got under it to start I realised it never had one in the first place 🤣🤣

Refitted one of the spats on the rear. I’m not a fan of the original clips with the wee plastic push in pin, so I got some M6 Stainless spire clips and used those. I’ve definitely got a much more solid fixing, but I’m thinking of taking it back...

Model year? I don't put too much faith in timing lights as they are only a guide to the manuf. settings back when the engine was built. The readings don't take into account the years of wear 'n tear or the grade of petrol you are using. I've...

If you keep the windows closed the fumes roll back in. We either drive with door tops off or sides rolled up Don’t have the luxury of flaps on the S1 to open

What have I done today... well discovered my cowboy rebuilt wheel cylinder is still leaking, so new cylinders it is! Then I started to change the springs as I have a whole new set to go on (just standard height/duty britpart, nothing special)...

I'm popping off for holibobs a week on Sunday so my ignoring is gonna reach the next level. That's the thing I'm most looking forward to whilst away

Yes. I think “checked” meant that he tried really hard to get it to slip and the engine always stalled. It feels ok to me — better than it did before the clutch replacement — so I’m happier with it now than I have been since buying the vehicle...

Sorry — didn’t think to update you. It’s sorted now. The mechanic said the adjuster (at the master cylinder I assume) was wound right the way out and he hadn’t adjusted it when he fitted the new clutch. My theory is that the fluid expanded in...

Fitted the longer studs to the rear today. Hoped to do it without having to take the hub off but that didn't work, bet the hub seals start leaking now!

Ok, i am still not sure this was a smart buy, but this old 109 came home today (always wanted One). My first 30kms on a series, what an experience! First things i noticed: - speedometer and odometer dont work; - left blinkers dont work; - it...

Think I'm going to change both UK and Kenya adverts to OFFERS, as well as put up in SA (they have money and are mad overlanders) and see where things go..... the joy of Landy ownership when things go a bit wrong :-)

Thanks for reply very helpful, think I’m going to do away with the lift and go back to original springs and shocks

Sorn’d her. 😢 After roughly 1k miles of testing, she’ll be hibernating until I return. On the plus side, she’s only got 18 months until she’s Tax & MOT exempt. ☺️

When I say full, I mean bulkhead loom.

Many thanks for the link, having been looking around in this price bracket that looks like quite a lot of vehicle for the money providing the work claimed to have been done has been done and to a good standard. However I have just bought a...

Going to start from basic - thank you 👍🏻

But are you ignoring the thoughts…

Glass or blade fuses?

If not I know someone with a full loom 🤣 Welcome

Used to be 1 & 1/2 turns for standard running

You may think that your engine is running rich but white deposits are the result of running lean. If it were running rich they would have black deposits on the plugs. A nice light brown is what there should be on the electrodes. A Gunson...

Nice motor. Is that a stumpy r380 gear box? Can’t help with the engine wiring but all the looms were the same. The v8 engine loom plugs in to the main loom. Have you got any looms? Fuse box etc
