    Just tried it twice, same results. Hover over the photo and the bottom option is img code, select that and paste it into the message box. Each time it ends up as a mini pic. Getting on my tits now.

    I am using photbucket, how do you think I'm getting the photos onto this site? I'm uploading them as big files but when I add them to this site they come out all gay and poncy! This biggest problem I have with this car is that it was a conversion done by someone else and they've given me no...

    Yeah similar to that one Buster, but different. I think the 200tdi motor & box is from an 89/90 Range Rover. The link rod at the front of the pic is different too, I have a straight, U shaped bar, with a pin around the middle. this pic isn't great but it shows the broken end which is still...

    here's one before the suspension lift and without its roof. Not really relevant I know, but I'm in the groove of this photbucket malarkey!

    Evening! Well sods law, I get up today and twang a muscle in my back, so no chance of crawling about under the motor. I did manage to hobble out and take some pics though. Not sure how multiple images will be displayed but here goes; This is one of the reservoir that is empty This is...

    Cheers guys. Empire! very funny, very funny indeed. Buster your links look good, but I'm on a netbook right now and the pics are too big for the screen. I'll fire up the other half's 17" jobbie tomorrow and look through them, then I'll perhaps feel a little braver about getting in and about...

    I'll put you up! When can you get here!!!! Do you think it's terminal then? And what other cylinders do you mean? I'd look in my Haynes but my mate took it.

    At the moment, no. My 110's in a sorry place right now and needs some attention. I'm using a Toyota Hilux Surf KZN185 3.0td SSRG.

    Would the slave cylinder being knackered cause there to be fluid seepage at the wheels though?

    Hi all, Some time ago I bought an 1988 110 that had had the engine and gearbox from a Range Rover installed, the 200TDi. Everything was fine and working ok, but after I'd done about 100km in it I lent it to an associate to drive while we were working together. Almost immediately after he got...

    For anyone interested I've just created a public album with a small selection of photos from the cave reform. I'll add to it in the next day or so but right now my rabbit stew is getting cold!

    I have a 110 with a 200tdi engine & box conversion (bought to replace our Jeep Cherokee) and a Hilux Surf 3.0Td SSRG. Cave houses can be bought nowadays from around 20k, for reform of course!

    There's 1000's of them here, some fully reformed others derelict and some just needing some tlc. All year round temp of about 18 Deg and in the summer when it's 50 deg C outside it's the people living in houses that wish they had a cave ;)

    I actually quite like Guildford, we even looked at moving down that way before finally deciding to come to Spain. Ahhh the summer days spent at the Lido :cool:

    If he was I'd be Thai Boxing his ass into the next province! Here's a photo of one of the unreformed rooms. The whole complex is over 100 years old and had about 12 rooms, we've now dug that out to about 17.
