Ive got a 200tdi engine to go with said sump, all he needs is give me that v8. :p:p:p

Evening all, what a scorcher of a day best of the year oh well snow next week. 🤣 🤣

🤣 🤣 🤣 Similar to what I use except mine is much smaller, and probably slower. Each time I push the pump handle down I have to wait for the oil to run into it. It works in a very funny way. I think a lot of the problem is the narrowness of the...

You need one of these, warm the motor up then suck away...you could remove the oil as well 🤣 🤣

Just call him and call him a *u*t anyway 🤔

Sympathise mate, I think you have incredible self-control, I couldn't control myself. :(:(:(:(

...the 95YO MIL's loving son who can readily visit her at home to help empty her bank account unfortunately cannot go hold her hand in hospital because Hospitals upset him and make him feel bad. So my wife has been with her Mum since 10AM this...

I have a spare 200 tdi sump, not sure what yours is though obs not a 200 tdi soz :D

Hope she recovers to a point where she can go back home and live as she has been doing.;)

Yes, I have looked at them in the past. Just had another look and they do certainly look a lot better than I remember them. I will prolly get one. Don't want to go through this hassle again. My hand pump, which is nigh on useless, takes forever...

Oh dear, sorry to hear this. Have you tried the electric oil change pumps that work thru the dipstick hole? I have one but never actually used it, some folks swear by them, some at them. ;)

Maybe nearly halfway through the job I hate most on the Disco. Emptying the sump. Cannot get the sump plug off, haven't been able to for ages, so I syphon it, or pump it out through the dipstick tube. Takes flipping ages and the handpump is next...

As what you are asking is basically "How can I nick a Disco once I've got the door open?" you won't find it I doubt. But someone may be willing to PM you with the info.

...Fun & Games this morning. Wife went up to her Ma's for the usual Tuesday bin preparation and shopping list collection. Found the old gal collapsed on the floor, all the indications are that she was there all night. Totally out of it and less...

I'm from the UK from Shropshire, I have to be honest I've never heard of Cambiare either but after looking on Google they sell OE stuff apparently. I suppose only time will tell haha! I paid just under £90 for the pump.

Which country is this is if you don't mind telling us? Just looked them up, doh! Never heard of them but they seem quite good.! I was just thinking, as the word is the Italian verb "to change". And you "change" parts out.

Happy days, out of interest what make pump did you buy?

New fuel pump fitted, primed and it started after a slight struggle & quite abit of smoke.. but all is good now

I basically took mine off to try and save fuel, that didn't work at all!

My viscous pulls through the rad from the engine side, so the twin fans I have at the front blow air through to assist. What little air flow I get at max revs, whilst doing 10 kmph through a massive donga (oooooh, errrrrr missus) is going the...

Great point. Mine is basic...no ac , no fan coupling. So I have air flow through also you are very correct only need in slow traffic on hot days or very long steep hills. Thankyou for reply.

(He's joking! Motorola V220, came out about the same time as mine prolly. It'll work for a while!)

Morning All. :D Bright N Sunny here for now.A shopping day. :( Have a good day. :)

Mornin Sunny and warm, clear skies 🙂 Got a phone to use in new car Have a good Tuesday Stay cool all 🙂

That looks weirdly like my old Motorola V171, so is it a new phone but with a retro look or is you joking? Sadly my old one won't work soon as Tesco are closing down their 3g and this phone won't work with newer stuff. Even still has its...

Morning all, Kuga has a leaking gasket and now hdc sensor going mad and when I braked I heard a grinding noise on Freelander. Loving work, just not life ATM.

Had a practice at using ma hippo to flatten down me manc cobbles yesdi. Onlt the test patch eye weeded recently. Not much diffrrence. Gorrabit enthusiastic and swept me drive after.

Could be a dams looking to start a new burrow at this time of year , if so prioritize to get it be careful with the dogs 😯

Sorry should have read to the end 😕😕

It's carried in rats drippings and urine and contaminates soil and water and dogs love drinking out of puddles
