I'm near Sankt Gallen ... i had the same issue so i bought 2 of the AEG 12v heater blowers, kept the screen clear but did F-all otherwise.. so i organised the correct adapters and pipes and re connected the old water heater ... works awesome!

No they do not put it on a Dyno but they do have to do an emergency stop test in that they drive it on a track to 60kmh and apply the brakes ... so i can imagine that if they have any experience in LR's they would realise it's better than i should be ... and then if they suspect a mod .. all...

I'm thinking of doing this but wanted to know if anyone has already done this, has an opinion or indeed knows anyone who has done this. To add to this i was considering the Stage2 cylinder head upgrade, however in Switzerland the maximum power upgrade allowed is only 20% so with only 56BHP and...

Hey Folks, Does anyone have an idea or know exactly what the ideal timing curve should be for the 5MB engine? I am using a 123 electronic ignition currently 26deg maximum advance at 4500 rpm (17/20/23/26deg) Which is curve F Simon Curve table data 123\GB-4-R-V advance starts max. advance...

Did you use the wiring loom or just replaced them?

Late series III EX Zürich Airport Firebrigade

https://www.paddockspares.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=boomslang The wiring loom with relays only costs £30 It's doddle to fit ( so they say )

Update .. Thanks to Rob I have been in touch with these guys and have bought the original part ( ERC9453) from them ... And my solution to the metal pipes that run from the heater valve to the matrix and back to the adapter is to use this flexible stainless pipe from a local heating engineer...

I think thats the same, the 624091 is the imp thread ... I cant find any specs on the ERC9432 .. but yes if the outside thread is the metric I could find some kind of tube maybe that mates to the inside thread ... I read on a lightweight forum that they have been using hydraulic adapters which...

It is like trying to find the said rocking horse poo.. really. I'm trying to get the heater working on my ex swiss fire service series III. I bought the hoses from paddocks no problem. I got a local plumber to bend me some tube as the metal pipes are no longer made and weeks of internet...

Dear Mr Extreedoc, can you please explain how to fit headlight relays ... i too have the same main beam issues Cheers Simon

Neil ... the back wheels mate .. so the prop shaft to the rear diff turns.... in neutral so you can see (hear) if there is anything catching or out of line with the rear drive

yes i meant the gap ... i just read the original workshop manual and the difference only applies to a 6 cylinder engine. so yes phew! i have been doing it correctly

in the video at 7:50 he says inlet manifold is 10thou and exhaust is 25thou, thats 25mm and 63mm He also says some of them are all the same and some not ... how do we find out? Simon

here ya go ... with the prop on the car it was not obvious ... until i got it off

is the overdrive in or out? that sounds like it's in the drive train... or a CV joint it really does remind me of my problem, the clatter i can hear has a low tempo so it's in time with revolutions of the wheels. I ultimately found my cause by jacking up the vehicle and turning the wheels by...

Aww thanks Bob ... I have rebuilt the fan and re seated al the air hoses so now we have right hurricane in the cab & as I use Evans coolant i'm kinda hopeful that i will get some improvement. Next job is to flush out the matrix ( but i have to go mix some dodgy band for a new years eve gig so...

Sunday morning learning curve or what! Which raises a question, in the workshop manual .. well haynes it says that all the gaps are 25 but chap in the video says .. exhaust at 25 and inlet at 10. I have never done it like this .. anyone else used these settings? Simon

Or the prop shaft UJ, mine did that as in i had the same kind of noise that at first felt like it was coming from the gearbox or tunnel, mine got worse on RH bends and it would stop if i put the clutch out. your initial description of something flapping about underneath sounds familiar. I also...
