Put it in writing and make it totally clear what you want doing or look out for a much larger bill than feared. Friend put his disco in for service, told them to call him if any more work needed and they found something else but did not ask him for ok first - near twice the expected bill...
Thanks Slob
Sounds possible..
I do have the head off. Re skimmed today and wanted to start putting back on tonight but broken spring, none in stock round here so some ordered from rimmer bros. Have brother in laws wedding this w/e so wanted to get finished before that.
If new spring does not...
Hello,
Is it possible to replace a broken spring without head removal?
I have a 300 tdi
I have found mention of this on another site but it does not explain how?
Thanks in advance.

Charles and Take 5's statements are in total agreement.
this stuff is clearly 100% pure snake oil made from many deceased slithery things.Hence -
- it works
- It reeks
You hands should stop smelling soon - when they drop off!
Mine now much better after starter rebuild. Try will a jump from another running car - does starter turn faster than normal? New glow plugs also helped a while back
What about adapting the existing two poster with some arms to make it contact the chassis further forward and back?.Let it contact where it does already and get some i beam girder or similar that you use to adapt? Maybe there is even a pre made adpator out there?
What about those ratchet straps...
should the pistons come out the top easily enough then? Will there not be a ridge at top of bore and the rings will hit that? Sorry but it was 1987 when I last did a full rebuild of a lump (a t reg Cavalier I think!)
Have learnt a lot from this site already.
This is not a request for help but feel free to add to any points made. This related to a series 1 cable operated brake.
1. If hand brake lever feels odd and will not move or only in jerks you handbrake is sezied on!
2. Do not fret about how you will...
Questions and answers are ok?
Q - Why are single men slimer than married ones?
A - Single men come home, go to fridge see whats there and go to bed.
Married one come in , go to bed , see whats there, and then go to the fridge.
Hello All
Have today bought our first Disco. It has made it back 40 miles to home near Accrington.
Some rust and some oil leaks. More jobs to do!
Planning to use veg oil so good to see there are threads about that.
Good luck all
Chris
