    My blowers suck...

    Oh that's good to know as the fans work fine (when they decice to work) I'll have a poke around next week and see what's occuring. Thanks :)

    Handbrake keeps going slack...

    I doubt that's thread lock mate - they put paint on the bolt threads to show they've never been used and are new. Did the bolt you removed have thread locker on it? You can get non permanent anearobic adhesive (normally blue) and permanent (normally red) I'd be careful where you use it - you...

    My blowers suck...

    There's a loose connection on my heater fan blowers - it comes on and turns off when it feels like it. Plus you can see the lights dim so it's got to be a bad earth or short somewhere. Question is, before I start taking out the dash, what area am I looking at to find the possible cause? Don't...

    Mine always lacks power in the morning before it's heated up - it's only been noticeable with this colder weather. As diesel engines work using pressure and heat to fire, it would make sense it's lacking some grunt if it's always that cold! Get a thermostat in and I'm sure you'll see some...

    Heat!!

    You could make one out of tin foil like they do in Slovakia and the Czech republic...... Looks odd but seems to work for them! I'd do the thermostat first if it's not been done for years. As Urban Panzer said, it's diesel so will take longer to heat up. Leaving the heat dial on cold till...

    It was spot on Rich. Really gutted we left at lunchtime, looks like we missed out on all the proper messy stuff. I'm blaming my two drunkard mates who saw the sign for the bustard and started jonesing for another drink!

    I'm up for it. Hopefully if it's in the next few weeks I've got an excuse not to take those wheels off and put the road tyres back on! Thanks for arranging that Rich, much obliged. I know it's stressful trying to sort out a group of that size! Now all we need is JP's pics and the rest of...

    It's not something to do with a physical restriction on the throttle is it? Maybe the cable was never pulling the throttle wide open and now the throttle is stuck further open, it needs less cable movement to move it to wide open? I would change the cable first point of call so you can rule out...

    I was gutted for you and felt bad leaving but the mud was calling! At least you can get it fixed and ready for next time at minimal cost. Can't believe those things have plastic bases - surely metal would be a little more suitable?!

    JP's reverse lights made me laugh the whole way round! Whenever we stopped at junctions, I kept having to work out if he was actually coming backwards or not! I didn't get many pics, and they're not great, can't wait to see some more.

    Thanks everyone, had a great day! Shame I had to chip off but the missus and my mates were getting a bit stir crazy. If they hadn't been drinking since 9 I might have let them have a drive! haha Guy, hope you get your rangey sorted. I was gutted for you after that first lane! At least it...

    Yeah I was going to have a stab at a camel cut when I put them on Friday but ran out of time. Hopefully won't gouge the tyres up too much in one session.

    Yeah the crappy one's I got have a good range but only go up to channel 8! Channel 9's still emergency channel is it or has it changed? I'd be fooked if I ran into problems if that's the case! haha
