Brazing and shot blasting are easy, give her a bit more of a challenge.

Count me in. Will the lanes have dried up enough ? But I suppose there are enough non muddy lanes around the punch bowl to keep us satisfied.

Delphi are what most people recommend, where from is down to you.

If the fuel is leaking from the suction part of the lift pump it would cause running problems, but I have no idea if the priming leaver shaft is on the suction side. Better to replace the lift pump and see.

Nice, very nice :)

Just been out in the peeeing rain bleeding the fuel system, as yesterday I ran it way too low and this evening it wouldn't start (I'm sure the fuel gauge isn't right as the light hadn't come on). It's running now but I'm wet through.

Fare comment. Some just don't think or care.

The Disco is now welded up and ready for some fun. So when is the next trip out ?

Finished welding up the rear cassis on my 300tdi, 6 area's cut out and new metal back in. It's been a long slog between breaks in the rain/wind, work out in the road. Tomorrow (weather permitting) I'll refit the springs and shocks and she's back on the road.

Nah, due to production being stopped they are now indangered and seek safety in numbers.

Thanks guys. I have some 2mm plate, a welder, and the week after next off work, time to get busy.

I need to weld a couple of areas on the chassis of my D1, is 2mm plate thick enough ?

Looking good mate, you sure are cracking on with it.

Julian, Chunder was banging on about why I should fit a facet to my 300 at the last BBB, may be worth dropping him a PM.

I (and I'm sure other have to) have been waiting and hoping for your interest to come back. I'm sure that there can't be that much more work to be done, you've done so much already. But hay, it's your car and your choice.

It's not broke, it's just got man flue, it's a common LR affliction.

Mine requires some welding, so no laning for me at the mo :(

That's the rear and centre that I used, but I used this down pipe http://www.paddockspares.com/esr2297-front-pipe-300tdi-without-flexi.html as The felxy bit is normally the first part to go. But be warned it's quite a bit louder than the standard pipe, not hot hatch dustbin, but louder.
