I like your hopefulness towards sorting all the leaks

I meant if you were full throttle up a hill with traffic lights at the top. If it still does it after driving normal load and revs for more than 10 seconds then my question is irrelevant

Does it do it only immidiately after you drive it hard? Fuel level dropping due to insufficient supply or needle valve too restrictive

Me and my brother were out offroading in our two landys, i pulled up behind to act as an anchor so he could winch somebody out, handbrake wasn't working at the time (shoes worn out no more adjustment), turned it off and put it in gear, had been in and out of low box couple of times in the day...

With a diesel you *basically* just squirt more in, yet with petrol engine, mixture and timing wise right is right, you have to improve flow, like head ports and valves, manifolds....

Level *should* sit above the core in the radiator, if it's only 1/4" down from the top of the core i wouldn't worry if its not doing anything else untoward, ideally should sit very roughly 2" down from neck

Yeah me's going, with my brother, possibly drive myself in series 3

When it's on the front of the radiator, not turned on and tour driving along, it is just slowing down and disturbing the air, therefore not cooilng the radiator quite as well, meaning it has to come on more often. Most electric fans especially cheap ones are really not designed to run for long...

If you put an electric fan on ideally have it after the radiator as it will have less of a windmilling effect when it's not switched on

You don't, it's a crimped joint, you have to disconnect it elsewhere

Can be either or both, check the adjustment first, the clutch has obviously worn a bit now you can do it on demand, whether that means the clutch was 90% ok and is now only 60% ok, or it was 30% ok and is now toast will require more looking Was there any particular reason to doing all the...

I don't know if this is the proper method or not, I would rather they put it on a set of rollers, applied the hand brake and then motored the rollers round until the brake slipped, the rollers would probably slip on the rollers first though, or you could just stop on a hill, but it's all too...

I wondered this when the man was testing mine, he strapped the effiency tester into my series 3 and drove along the yard behind the workshop and stamped on the foot brakes, both fronts locked immediately, much to his surprise! and passed the footbrakes, then reversed back, I wasn't sure what he...

Give the props a good shake side to side (in the direction as if you were trying to bend it)

Have you looked at the prop or props if your in 4wd which you shouldn't be on the road with no centre diff. Does the rattling/tinkling sound like pinking? if so what fuel have you got in it and how old is it, what timing figures have you got at idle, say 2500 and nearly maximum rpm?

This sounds like it was a Mini, what exactly did you do, because as long as you wound the bolt out a few threads to push on the washer wouldn't have been affecting it

Do you know if it was running sensibly in its old vehicle, if it was, ask yourself whats different from the old vehicle? the exhaust? the intake? fuel supply? has it been stood for any length of time? is the fuel relatively new?

My Brother and I are thinking of making a landrover of a challenge truck style. Make a chassis out of 3-4mm wall rectangular box of a similar size to an original land rover chassis with the intention of competing with the vehicle. How do we make it road legal? ie. type approval

Not long now, should be a good time if the weather's acceptable

Wow, I've tried searching for video's on PTO winches before and didn't know what people called them, thank you
