Did this a while ago but needed decent rain shower to test it ...
Leak in boot fixed. It was the bonding along the top of the rear quarterlight window. Smear of sealant in the gap and she's dry again.
Just had a call with my TรV engineer, and he had good news!
The tubular exhaust will simply be declared as a replacement part, no further inspection or so needed. ๐คฉ
If I really get the Weber four barrel carb, he would need a dyno run to change...
Well, there are maybe more issues with all of that. Hell, not that I was into perfomance tuning to begin with, even the exhaust is so far standard, just in stainless steel.
Anyways, since the exhaust manifolds are shot, well, the right one is, I...
Man, am I happy mine has none of those pesky electronics! ๐
Anyway, just bolted down the upper dash and instrument carrier before rain drove me in. The connector for the instruments is actually poka-yoke, fool proof, as in it can only be plugged...
Thanks guys. As it happens I went ahead without the nanocom & loosened the mid 4 FIP bolts and tapped the actuator forwards with a hammer & it's running sweet as a nut now (aren't hammers just the best thing ever ๐ ๐คฃ ๐). I'll get some readings...
Solved a mistery, the rev counter. The red wire is 12 V plus, the grey-red one is lighting the green one goes to the coil plus and the brown one is the negative. All I had to do was to remove it from its housing... So rev green goes to the coil...
Took her for a little drive........... to the cemetery. No it wasn't to threaten her ๐คฃ Just a visit to my Nan on her birthday. I'd bought a box of those garden lights that aren't too bright, and put a couple near the headstone.
It was a box...
I still need the solution.
it worked very well as follows:
loosen the rear screws (4 pieces, 2 on the left and 2 on the right) and lower them slowly. I supported it with the paper rolls. Then I was able to pull the sun visor out to the rear...
I think the MAF is the culprit, when going slow on a roundabout or junction the rpm is in the region of 700ish the MAF reading goes up and down from 25kg and when the car starts to โhuntโ it goes down as far as 0 for a second or so. As soon as it...
So, spent my lunch break while working from home to check something under the car. Pulled myself out grabbing the front propshaft. Managed to turn it by hand appr. 20 degrees. The rear one is tack solid.
Means the front diff is shot, but not...
@Frank_38 read this thread https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/p38-battery-drain.364514/#post-4994309
and go through the battery drain checks in BECM SID attached to post #32 in that thread. That will confirm if the problem is the RF...
It's amazing how it's actually going.. I did get a bit scared but only through the need of protecting myself but you know what.. This is something we both want๐
Some twonk in a van going too fast down a narrow country road smacked my os door mirror sending the glass through my open window on to my lap. Casing is scuffed but otherwise OK, just a new mirror glass needed. Mine are heated so I've discovered...
Not today, but over the weekend really. 635mi round trip to Ard Rock MTB festival - didnโt set a foot out of place the entire drive. Set off Thursday after collecting a mate, and came back today. Even got complimented by one of the stewards when...
As above. One of ours went missing for over a month. Turned out he had got shut in a barn. He also came back rather thin and has been noticeable reluctant to stray far since. Fingers crossed for a safe return.
Edit, pleased the cat is back.
Good news, the cat is back! She limps, but is otherwise fine. She sits in drive way bow, guarding the entrance. If I counted correctly, it is life 3 that is gone. Maybe even number four. She sure lives dangerously!๐ ๐ฅฐ
In other news, I found out...
If the bags have leaks in both of them it may not be able to lift itself. Clearing the errors won't help if the leak is greater than the air flow from the system.
Deal with the rear airbags first and go from there๐
have faith for your cat Ours went missing some years back and after 8 days we had given up all hope until he came walking up the garden path looking a bit thinner and a bit bedraggled. Turns out the house 4 doors away was being renovated after...
