Needle bounce can be caused by a number of things, such as a bend or two being a bit too tight instead of a long flow, the input to the speedo might not be fully seated, the speedo might be duff, and so on. Check the easy bits first, and make sure that the square drive sits home in the transfer...

The motor is just the motor, and if it turns, then it's generally OK. However, the motor relies on the gear wheel to push, pull and park the operating cable. If the gearwheel does not fully engage all the time, you will find the symptoms you describe. Good luck.

Under the nearside (left hand) bulkhead shelf, next to the door, you will find the wiper motor with four wirs to it. The Black one is earth, grounded through the motor clamp, so make sure that that is a good contact. IIRC the Green is a permanent feed to the park switch, and the Red/Light Green...

Remember to turn the wheel outwards to full lock when you are filling the swivel housing as that not only make it easier to get to, it also prevents the oil or one-shot from squirting back out at you.

Rivnuts are easily available in alluminium, mild staal, stainless steel and if you are very rich, you can get them made of Marine Bronze, although I can't remember the specific grade, but they were horrendously expensive as they are also used in explosive atmospheres. If inserted correctly, they...

It would appear that our Guru, Sir @jamesmartin is quite correct, as I went down and took a few more pics yesterday, and sure enough, the propshaft was siezed up solid! As I have only done a few hundred miles since getting her back from a gear and transfer box rebuild (by Ashcrofts,) is it...

Thanks for that @jamesmartin. I hadn't considered that possibility! They have had the propshaft off to change the gearbox, and would surely have noticed had it been siezed either when removing or refitting it! Had the propshaft siezed earlier, the only other time it was off was during the...

Apparently, the split pin was so corroded that it fell out of both the castellated nut and the pinion, which stripped the threads out of the nut. The two remnants of the split pin show no signs of corrosion, and the only bits to be found were the ends of the 'legs, with the 'bulb' part and the...

If you pop the grease cap off you should be able to see the end of the stub axle, which will either have a slot in it or have a flat across the threads. Whichever one you've got will let you know which tab washer you need.
