I'd do a leak off test on the Injectors, I've a client with the 2.4 duratorq lump. Rough idle and four injectors later it's fine. There is an issue we're a bad injector can ruin the block. There are a lot of folks reverting back to the later...

I thought it was all Ford until you got to the transfer box being landrover, hence the gearbox extension casing and silly output shaft that rips teeth for a living? 🤔

Is it an airflow meter or the air flap setup?

It sounds like the vacuum bell has rotted on the side of the dizzy. This will stop dizzy timing adjusting🤔 Does it have exhaust lambda sensors on it? Not familiar with this era but.... 👍

I assume that you are checking for power with the ignition in position #1 or #2.

Just find all the srs plugs and hard wire them anyway. Have a client with a 2000 38'. Serious water ingress in the past. We just took all the connectors out for the srs system. Put an end to that issue. Check the bulbs and replace all of them...

You don't live near any large fields do you 😜🫣

Exactly wot I’d got in mine ^^^. First aid, compressor, random emergency tools like a 10mm +\-driver, water, ropes, d shackles, they were really handy like when my rad pipe burst - you just grab the one you need and all the bits are there to...

yes, that sounds absolutely conclusive. i'll check it in great detail tomorrow!

No power at the switch pack, so have you checked from pin 1 to some metal part of the car to check if it's a bad earth? If that shows no power, take a wire from pin 1 of the switch pack connector to the battery positive, with the ignition in...

Do the interior lights operate? F1 feeds the switch pack but fuses F2; F9; F12 and F22 are also involved. A bad earth for the centre switch pack will kill all the functions. Do the mirrors adjust from the switch pack? Have you checked that...

NO they are the later type where the bleed pipe stays at much the same level I think. Definitely not under the battery tray. I'll double check tomorrow.

Have the glow plugs checked as well. Even one not functioning will stop a regen👍 The pressure sensor value should be around 2 bar at idle, 4 tops. If it's more and also a really high figure at 2500rpm then it'll confirm a partially blocked or...

Ooh I need one of those for the left hand side🤔 it'll stop my top up bottle and compressor getting about of their own 👍

They take up the space at the sides behind the wheel arches when you have the ridged boot liner, so not fixed in place.

You can open and close the windows using the Nanocom which proves the systems after the switch pack work, I.e becm and out stations in the doors. You've already proved that certain window motors work. Hopefully just dirty switch pack contacts. It...

Looking at the amount of snow, it's unlikely to be the UK. And I'm jealous of all that snow, I love snow...... Perfect weather for the Niva. (Sorry for swearing)

Who said which side the steering wheel was on :oops: ? J

Driving with just one eye open then!

Hey Keith, does your two have the down and under bleed pipe that goes beneath the battery tray? I replaced the down and under type for a rubber tube that goes around the battery and directly to the coolant tank. Far less bother bleeding after that😎👍

Why do anything, I spose. Probably better to have stopped all development here

If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you have enough horsepower. Mark Donohue

The nissens I had did indeed have a baffle, doesn’t necessarily mean yours does, missed in manufacturing, sent wrong one there’s many reasons. Usually we do Wammers test - turn it upside down and try to roll a marble through the top before...

Do you mean the Nissens radiator? If the top is hot and the bottom is cold, the baffle is either missing or it has failed. Or just possibly there is an airlock that is stopping circulation.

Just like driving a tank ;). J

Maybe they have cataracts and can't tell the difference 🤔

Looking at the state of some people's screens on a frosty misty morning as drive to work/school run that's more than good enough to see out of !

This is the state it was before.
