Hicap phill's latest activity

Hello Anaconda and Tottot, Lile I said, I looked into it today... I took out the start and stop combination and went to a Land Rover wizard with it. He opened it up and then we saw that the system that makes it impossible to pull the key out...

my emmisions are lower than a hybrid, i have a TD5 with 130K on it and an Alive stage 2 tune, DeCat/DPF thingy removed stainless exhaust, and no EGR, how is that possible? Regular use of Millers Ecomax and a good blat down the motor...

Do you mean you can turn the ign off and the engine keeps running then you can remove the key? I assume the car is pull cable to stop?

You can bend the arm that the float attaches to. Drain the tank, remove the sender then put, say, 5 ltrs of fuel in then mess with the arm, refitting it temporarily, until you are happy with what the gauge is showing.

Best you get a hold of the promised stuff ASAP. Should really have been in a box in the back when he sold it to you, cos we all know what happens to promises once money is handed over and customer gone, sadly. But that would be nice if it...

Yes. That's normal. Unusual for a Salisbury to fail.

I'm getting somewhere now... I got the front springs and shocks replaced today, cleaned up the area a bit along with putting on shiny new galv turrets. Still to put the expansion tank back in place etc but I'm happy with how things have come on...

Better look at pics on page 4 then Phill. Recon spreader should work, it only has to open case enough to take load off bearing races.

Looks good… Not read the whole thread but saw you had spun a 1/2 shaft. Now if the end was wheel end no need to split the diff. Rotate the diff to check damage

Yes sorry, it was fine, I am using it again today and lent my son my 90. I don't really know why but I hate driving it, to the extent it puts me in a bad mood, how strange.

It would be good thing to introduce yourself,[rough location] say hello and give some more details about what it may be off to have a chance of finding out.

Photos in your introduction without prompting, very good 👍

MOT Pass! with no advisories as usual. So thats 19 passes on the bounce, and 21 passes in total (2 were failed and passed within 5 mins for silly things bulbs, washer fluid etc)

Glynn Lewis website has turned up a lot of goodies...

@SimonBrown Look at the Glynn Lewis site he has the ones you can grease. But your shopping list will grow when you start looking at his kit. Nice mod is the drop arm which takes a track rod,quicker to change

Slitting wheels finally turned up and were put to use on the radius arm bolt that refused to cooperate. First, melt the bush: Then the slitting wheel and reciprocating saw can get in and chew through the spacer and bolt that simply refused to...

Started sanding the roof down for painting. Dog of a job given whoever painted it last seems to have used some chewing gum based paint 😏

I put a new switch on and it seems to be working. I hope that'll be OK for another few years.
