I use the Carlube stuff but other firms do ATF-U (Millers and Triple QX to name two) so if you can get them and as long as the spec is the same I should imagine they would be okay, but others may advise.

That merc is absolutely lovely. One of those would be in my "modest" classics collection if I won the lottery

This thread has been quite the read. 270 posts in a matter of days and presumably it'll keep going. I'll be honest, I'd be fascinated to see the outcome...

Good to see some unrelated chit chat going on here, and no non-ignoring of the OPs thread

That would be great, thanks very much. Drop me a pm when you're ready.

Just a brief pause in ignoring to say WHAT A THREAD THAT IS! Every once in a while a real beauty comes along. Reading that thread has really helped my ignoring of this one for a bit.

I shall indeed Sir Andy.

Just checked in for the day to see how it's going. There is some serous ignoring going on here folks! Well done, and more strength to all of your elbows. Keep it up! Anyhoo, I'm going to ignore for night I think, and probably tomorrow

Just bought and fitted a new expansion cap.

A couple of interesting examples on ebay at the moment... No2 has some mods on I'd like...

I've been so busy I've not had time to proactively think about ignoring which has been pretty helpful in said ignoring obviously. As I'm now less busy your posts this evening are a helpful reminder and I'll now get back to consciously ignoring subconciously

I might call dibs on those if you don't mind Sir?

Right on cue there @Nodge68. It's fate ;) :cool:

Indeed. Just need to know someone who can do a decent repair job on the rear sills. The rest of the car is pretty decent corrosion-wise and I'd like to keep it going for a few more years yet.

Alot of work done today. New rear brake flexi hoses and short joiner sections fitted, drums painted, ird oil changed, vcu bearings aligned, some serious rust tackled and the underside Lanoguarded. Also adjusted the ARB and rear brakes and programmed a fob too. All with considerable assistance...

Morning ignorees. Well done for taking the UK nightshift of ignoring for us Grumpy. With the time difference that works out pretty well. I'm on for some solid ignoring today though. I'm off to see Andyfreelandy shortly so we'll ignore jointly. I shall report in later to let you know how that's gone.

Same here. I'm up early tomorrow so ignoring for the night is good for me. I'll ignore again first thing.

Can you ignore the link in future please.

You could claim you were distracted by a very important thread on the forum, although thinking about it you are probably best ignoring it all together for your own safety

Yep, tread very carefully there
