I think after 4 1/2 years he may have got it sorted, either that or his other battery will be flat by now!:rolleyes::D

Easiest way would be compression check but for that you need to know that timing is correct (it does look ok) but as you can can feel air coming out the intake manifold then that is a sign that something is awry. Other option could be to remove the valvegear and put a straight edge across the...

Timing look ok, did you check for bent valves after the belt snapped as compression could be leaking past the valve seats

It looks like a bushing that would go inside a rubber anti-vibration mount type of affair to stop the bolt crushing the mount. It does look familiar but struggling to think where (or even if it is Landy related)

Are you trying to do it from underneath? I normally do it from the top.

The relays suffer from intermittent joins so randomly do odd things. Next time it does it don't touch the starter wire but give that box a good thump with a lump of wood or something similar and try starting bit again - you may be surprised!

As you may not have noted but you need 50 (productive) posts to flog your tat on here, hence why you will get the 'curious' offers! That said, what about a 1/2 empty can of posh dog food?

If its a 300 then you may have an immobiliser fitted (do you have a black metal box fitted in the battery box on the front face?). If so then it is probably dry joints on the relay contacts inside it (one does starter and the other the fuel solenoid). If you do have one then it can be opened...

Much like yourself I detest paying someone to do something I could do. I'll even buy specialist tools to do a job myself instead of paying others even if the overall cost would end up similar as at the end of the day I then have another tool ready for next time. It's one of those balancing...

Has it snapped off flush or below the surface of the head or is there some stud remaining to get hold of? If the remnants are well stuck in and you can't get it out then it is possible to get it spark eroded out. I've had it done before with an installed (different) engine but don't know if...

What is the purpose of the vote?:confused:

I was quite late in actually realising what had happened as I don't adventure in to LZIR that often, however it is good to see that we have now reached the target. Can't compensate for the loss of a child :( but hopefully will be used to good effect. A well done to the LZ community and...

This is from the 300 tai manual so may be slightly different but may give you a better idea

Best way would be the solar panel method. Disconnecting the battery means that you have no alarm while away, it also means that the Battery Back Up Sounder (BBUS) will probably go flat if it doesn't have its trickle charge (that is assuming your alarm has one). The issue with the BBUS is that...

The front panel is flat but it is fitted at a slight angle to the case. When you get the euro connector brass wire feed tube correctly aligned with the feed rollers the mounting face of the connector wants to be vertical but the front panel is at something like 5 or 10 degree slope hence my...

Well that sounds like the clutch plate has fell to bits or a box failure, sounds like its spanner time!

Yep, that's what I use too

Have you had any oil leaks from the gearboxes as the levels only ever go down if they have a leak and you don't top them up regularly enough?
