    Excellent. C221 still accessible as clocks are loose. Thanks again.

    Fuel gauge reading empty

    Got the manual via one of your last postings mate - thank you. I don’t remember seeing Birds Eye view of the connectors in it but obviously have all the black and whites. It’s very handy as you can just do a pdf search for “c217” say, then you can see diagram and location picture by just...

    Fuel gauge reading empty

    Thank you very much 👍🏻 I’m going to sound very daft now. How on earth do I check continuity from one end to the other without elastic arms? I’m assuming feed a bit of spare wire into the GB at plug end then stick that on one probe and the other on the GB hole at clock end?

    One for @sierrafery if you could please mate! Ive just picked up a commercial 300tdi disco and the seller advised me the gauge had got lazy and was just reading empty (with light illuminated) clocks were all cracked up on the plastic so changed with a good spare. So far I have: Checked the...

    You did indeed mate I just don’t see how I’d be able to get it booted up if mechanic couldn’t. I don’t have the space yet either annoyingly. Thibk you’ll scrap them both then?

    I have one already but would love to make the pair. They have the discovery logo on with a white and green stripe on the right shoulder. Someone must have one kicking about 🙏

    I do but it’s going to get out of hand too fast as I’d be doing a MS top hat build and it would get daft. I’ve just picked up a 3 door commercial that I’m absolutely chuffed with too!! I’m going to use it as my general snotter vehicle and try and look after my pickup a bit better!!! Atleast...

    I tried not to respond to this but keep coming back. I did similar to Phil - left 17 and went and worked on site away in digs. Fortunate enough to have had old school foreman and management. Spent all my 20s then living out a bag. Lost mates during Afghan times which made me push hard to live...

    Sounds like it’s getting you down and if that’s so just get it out your life and cut your losses. I’ve got two d1s one is full resto and ones an old commercial. Sometimes, which is quite rarely I find the project overwhelming but most of the time I can’t wait to get tinkering. I love it, love...

    Yeah pretty sure they rot just as bad as discos on the body. OP you need to write down a tick list instead of thoughts and ideas banging around your head. My head does the same! Start at the beginning and get the facts so you know what your dealing with. Have you got compression, is engine...
