    Excellent. Cheers. Not taken the slide hammer back yet. Probably won't bother. I'll give it a go. I tried to attach a set of mole grips like the slide hammer shows in it's destructions. But although they're the same brand they don't fit. Took the landy for an MOT today. Not good news. Got a...

    Went and bought a slide hammer today. Couldn't get it connected to the injector. Think I might take it back and just give in and take it to a garage. Thanks for all the advice though.

    Don't use pliers? Ahh! Might be too late for that. I've been trying to unscrew it for ages before realising it wasn't threaded. Might have to treat myself to a new injector too. It's only money! Highly over rated.

    Cheers. I've given up for the day. Back to it tomorrow. Soaked it in wd40. Hopefully it will work it's way loose over night. Might need a new injector after todays efforts though. Thought it was threaded and tried to unscrew it. Amature mechanics! I'll cause more problems than I solve. Might ve...

    Is the injector threaded? Or should it just pull out?

    Didn't work! Oh well. I've had to give up and call my cousin who's a mechanic. He'll sort it for the price of a beer.

    Cheers. I'll go see what happens. I've disconnected everything else from the injector just can't get it to shift.

    I'm halfway through changing the copper washer on my injector has it's been blowing. I say "half way", but I haven't managed to get the injector out. Any advice? Not sure what tool I should use to get it out. It's a bit stiff too. It's on a 200tdi.

    Looking forward to getting my hands dirty. Just added the picture to my profile. That's my baby/money pit!

    Seems pretty straight forward. I'll let you know if I end up winding that tranny up!

    Thanks for the great welcome. Just another quick question. Since I'm new to all this. What and when do I need to use hi/low and diff lock? Probably a stupid question but if you don't ask you don't know. Cheers again.

    I might have to just lend my mates and see how long it takes for him to ask for it back. He's got one of these boring shiny cars so he won't need it.

    Excellent! Cheers Sean. Now, where's my socket set?

    Hey up. I'm Dean from Leeds. Just got my first landy last weekend and having loads of fun. Took it onto some fields near where I live. Only went through a puddle but couldn't stop laughing. It's ace! Wouldn't have been able to do that in the old bmw. Can't believe it's taken me so long to get...
