I don't think I'm hijacking the thread here. Not appropriate to start a new one. I've just gone one pair of headlights out of two junk ones.The lamp wipers work but I can't get them to park as I'd expect. Goosed? MOT fail? Regards. P.

You suggest she goes on a diet! I'll show her your post at visiting hour. I've done the block thing and,of course, all's level from side to side. I get the sensor heights and write them in. Get it off the blocks and it reverts to a list to port. The sensor heights as read/got are now different...

One thing's for sure. You won't be bored. I've never been a fan of diesels and the word on the street is they're short of wind. If you're on the move from good ol fashioned plugs, points, timing and carb jet diagnostics you're in for a complete laugh. If you can keep abreast of a later V8 you're...

No need to post in "what did you do today" thread. I'm a block makin and a calibratin. Yep. Beats making lampshades in Matron's handicraft sessions.

That makes sense. I did a few years of pretty severe off roading in my game keeping days. It may be that I'm concentrating on each of my issues in focus and haven't noticed it so much till now. It's the downside of road camber into the bargain. In truth, there have been leaks all over the place...

Done that. Replaced air line from valve block to rear nearside bag. That's the valve block O rings & diaphragm, airline & bags replaced. As soon as I take the key out after lifting to extended and the pump stopping, the chattering kicks in and the nearside drops to about a couple of centimeters...

I can only thank you. Watch this space.:)

Not so trivial after all. All functioned as it should, on reflection, with the grey and black connectors in place. Does the single socket not consolidate the two into one with additional negatives. So, do you think I've got nought but a detective job on my hands to see what's awry? I'll have a...

I guess you're not far off the mark suggesting bespoke wiring. The source of my motor was less than professional. I left him to fit the bar. I don't much like the look of it anyway after 10 years by the sea in spite of getting waxoyled annually. I was unaware of land rover plug ready loom. I'll...

In 2015 I had a specialist trailer company fit a 13pin connector to my motor. The flicking indicator trailer lamp disappeared. I queried it and was told the law only states audible or visible monitoring. It never occoured to me that we were talking P38 electrics at the time. I don't suppose...

I had the same problem. If both relays kick in then temperature, revs, gas pressure must all give the thumbs up for them to open. I did as you, suspect the reducer and put the service kit on. It turned out that the barrier between the water jacket and the business side had gone to pot. There's a...

Now THAT'S a plan. I'm chairman of the escape committee. I'll suggest it at the next meeting. The only trouble is, no-one can remember why we're there.

I hope not. I've just replaced it brand new. Knowing my luck, though. If it comes to tipping the valve block on its side, I'll switch it back if all else fails. I've got a plan. Thanks for the hint.

I've got a plan. I'm starting to get stuff in order. As I've done on other topics, thanks to you all. I can't get at the airlines which are nailed to the topside of the the nearside chassis. I can feel them but they're wrapped in some kind of protective sheathing.I'm reluctant to disturb them as...

I've told matron about my issues in group sessions. She said someone should tell me where the leak is. So. Where is it ?:cool:

Right, here we go. I'm right on beam now. I take it that a disconnected battery is not the same as yanking the delay relay. This is enough to make you weep, isn't it. But many thanks.

Thanks again. The rear NS is still an inch down. That's where it stays no matter what. I've done the block thing. The battery's off again so I'll revisit this morning. It seems, from your helpful input, the height sensor is sending duff info. Am i on the right track? Would I be right in thinking...

Not bubbling from 6mm or 8 mm connections. The bubbling is from the exhaust choke when the chattering goes on. The suds are residual from checking for leaks generally. I'm about to replumb the whole thing. The airlines can't be checked on account of inaccessibility. I still suspect the valve...

None. The blasted radiator drain plug has just dripped down my neck getting the damned blocks out for setting EAS levels in an EAS system that's driving me up the flippin wall. NOW I've said it! Therapy for me again. God, I hate those wires on my head.

Grabbers me. The wife would like anything that's got white writing on the side.
