    Locking wheel nut adapter missing

    Well guess what I found!!!! If you look carefully you will see that the letters for the adaptors are stamped in the bottoms of them!!! Mine is a B so I could see that they read A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J as you go along the rows!!! (Blow the pic up if nec!!) You'll see now why I said you'll need to...

    And I was going to suggest compression testing before except I was busy..... Searching my pics! 🤣

    That should do it, similar to the one I have been trying to find a pic of for the past, how long? If you turn the engine so the piston is at the top you won't need to worry about the valve falling down into the cylinder!! It'll drop, but not by far!!

    Can you put up a pic of it again, with nothing in front of it so we can see where the sticky-outy bit is on it, I don't seem to be able to see it.

    Odd problem (carburettors)

    Could be stuck needle float valves. As others have said, they are simple and loads of stuff ont tinternet to help you strip and rebuild them. I doubt rebuild kits are too expensive, but replacement ones sure would be!! They are very easy to rebuild as there is so little to them. Just taking...

    Just to be sure that it is blue smoke, and nowt else like white smoke? I bought a special tool to change the valve stem oil seals without being forced to take the head off or risk springs, collets etc flying around. I'll have a search for a pic of one for you. As for the lodgers, hope...

    We buy barometers every now and then in mixed lots from auctions and sometimes because we like the look of them. Of all the ones we have, about 5, only one works. And we took one that we really like to a specialist to fix, he charged us £100 and still didn't fix it!! Grrrr! You can buy cheap...

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    Or the very simple rubber tube with the bolt in the far end and the slit in the side. Cost peanuts and I use them all the time, I have even made one when I couldn't get one. Eezibleed is an oxymoron. Gave up on mine when it refused to work but sprayed the engine bay with brake fluid. Tired it...

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    None other than, yep, put new cylinders on. If not properly bled the air in them, which contains water vapour, adds to any rust problem. Also they work over such a tiny distance that even if you take them apart and hone them, they often simply don't work again properly. If you do take them...

    Locking wheel nut adapter missing

    The cover to the one with the lock nut on should have a dimple in the middle, and be the only one that is removable! It is faintly possible that, once given all the security info they ask for, a LR dealer may be able to tell you which adaptor you need. If not, get 5 new ones and the key, then...
