Thanks! It was an Ebay purchase by son in law, last ran 4 yrs ago, spent 5 yrs in a field prior to that! However, got it started last night, so quite smug now.
Is there a way of cleaning out the bellhousing on Series 3 without splitting the engine and box? I've just changed the slave and found everything full of oily sand!
The stop cable is a Bowden cable with an outer sleeve that needs to be fixed at both ends. In retrospect, we should have just threaded the inner cable through the old outer, but hindsight is wonderful! So how do we fix the lock end??
I'm helping my son in law restore a Series 3 hicap diesel. The engine stop cable has been replaced, but I can't see how the outer sleeve is secured in the steering lock assembly. Looks like there should be a tiny circlip. Any advice?
