I think its leaking at the joint with the rad. I need to give it another coat of looking at

It is a bit oily under there. I think I was told theres a leak from a high pressure hose, I purchased a replacement but never got around to have it fitted. In fact I did once, but the mechanic said where it threads into the radiator it had seized, and if forced it may strip the thread in the...

50:50 ratio with water?

Yep, it's a TD5 colour, but I like it.

Is this a suitable coolant for a 1996 300tdi? Defender?

When I had mine done I supplied the fitter with some parts to replace, its a good time to do it whilst its been rebuilt.... New standard suspension springs (and some galv spring seating bracket/cone thingies purchased from a Welsh landcover suspension parts supplier, can't remember their name)...

I seem to recall also specifying galv body crossmembers?

No sticker on my bulkhead, but then I had a new galv bulkhead fitted a few years ago that was resprayed. No sticker anywhere else either, so they must have to work from the 3.0 value?

I had a galv chassis fitted to my 110, bought from Richards Chassis and fitted by a bloke called Paul Morton who had set up a chassis fitting workshop next door to Richards. This was about 10 yrs ago so don't know if he's still there. He also fitted a galv bulkhead that I bought from Ashtree...

My handbrake lever was very slack, and handbrake wasn't working properly. I've adjusted the nut behind the drum, as far as I know it needs tightening until you can hear the pads inside catching on the drum, then back it off? I kept tightening the nut and spinning the drum but couldn't hear them...

I've added a double dose of Millers Ecomax (50ml to 25L BP Ultimate diesel) to an empty fuel tank. When thats used up I'll do a normal ratio mix and blast it about for a few miles. Theres a bolt through the accelerator pedal that I can adjust on the MOT day, to lessen the travel of the pedal. I...

I can’t find the bugger in my engine, any clues?

I didn't know about those stickers. When did they appear? Did the MOT testers put them in when the rules changed in 2018?

How easy is this adjustment, is it just loosening a bolt and moving the cable?

The MOT certificate says 'Emissions not tested', but that because as soon as they started testing it, it went off the record, maxed out their sensor.

Would using premium/ultimate diesel help with the MOT?

Brill, I’ve just bought some Millers Ecomax Haven't got it in my hand as I type, but I think it’s a 50ml dose to 50L of fuel. I’m almost on an empty tank of fuel, would there be an advantage to squirting a half measure in now, as a concentrated dose, using up the fuel that’s in the tank and...

I shall rebook the test and give it a blast, and add some Millers ECOMax. Is this the stuff you use?

My 1996 110 300tdi has just failed its MOT due to emissions. It's hardly had any use in the last few months and maybe this is the reason, perhaps it needs a good blast before getting it tested again? It does kick out a bit of black make on start up and under heavy acceleration. Many years ago...

Thanks. Either of these ok?
