Work Tonight: Heater hoses. Swivel gaiters - one of those Awkward jobs that shouldn't of been. Rub down the primer and start top-coating, ready for wing replacement tomorrow :D

You can get re-seal kits, they don't always work, and if the piston bore is Borked, then it'll just eat them again......

No, we'd have threads full of practical, subjective information, not repeated questions. The search tool works brilliantly, and if you can't find a specific answer to your question, broaden the search terms. Even A simple Search in Google gives a plethora of tyre websites and comparison...

If it's just temp protection. And you're gonna strip it back afterwards and re-apply a decent base, then anything will do short-term. Although you'd have to make sure it was stripped back properly, and cleaned etc. Hardly seems worth it TBH. A litre of RedOxide primer is a worthwhile purchase...

Had a busy evening :) I've got most of what I need now, inc. my primer and paint. Parts Porn...:D Got the front end back on, so I can prime it somewhere sensible that doesn't involve hanging, or walking into it...And also primed up the seatbox, backrest and bulkhead - no pics cos my memory...

****ing people.... :doh:

Oh, and BTW - no, I haven't done a THING on Smidge tonight - been in Brum all day in a sodding team meeting until 4.30. Got in, sat down, logged on....now I can't be fooked to get up :pop2:

"oooh, fat titties" - i just****ed myself laughing. **wipes tear from eye**

****e. :D So should I teach him some Keats instead then ?

Yes, you can. here's a link to what you need - hope this helps fella... Easy Diesel Turbo For Series 2.25 Engines

My wife'd kill me if i showed up with a new pet. Every time we go to the local garden store, i make a beeline for the pet section. Gorgeous hayes Macaw in there....i've been trying to teach him to swear, so they knock the price down :D :D :D :D

You HAVE to use 2 different oils (technically 3 including the dot4 for the clutch and brakes )...unless you want to cook the diffs and boxes...... That's why manufacturers give us the specs :doh: SAE90 is a standard hypoid gear oil for diffs and gearboxes - a simple search in the website will...

Want.

LOLZ - could make it an Auto-Jumble :D

You'll all have to fight for room with the dog .... and body panels :D

Well impressed - from a "simple" get-it-through-the-MOT to a full on strip and rebuild. Most people i've seen lately would of just given up and not bothered. You've thrown yerself in the deep-end and kept going - Sign of a true series owner IMHO. :5bhurray:

Best i can find in my Server Archive is this :D :D

Will deffo plonk some piccies up - my mate keeps nagging me to get a move on, too. We've got some great lanes down here, around Dorset, and good ol Salisbury plains, too :D Wish i'd of taken some shots of the lanes in the winter when I had my Uber-Quad (another project) immense fun :) Just...

PolyBushes will stiffen the ride, but last a lot longer. TBH, if it was a Disco or a Defender, i'd say fit them, but in a series, i'd say just fit some parabolics and some gas dampers instead. I've been insanely busy today/tonight. Managed to do an oil change, drain the tank ( 20ltrs of...

LOLZ - greet piccies :D Glad yer pressing on dude - onwards and upwards !
