Hi All, my '96 4.0 has a tin worm issue in the rear corners. I read in RAVE that as a procedure before welding, the battery should be disconnected, so too the airbags and all sensors and...ALL ECUs. My question is that, assuming that those who pray at the altar of sticking metal together...

Off the top of my head, the arm fastens to a moulding on the back face of the glovebox. Mine was snapped off so I made a new bracket and used 2 allen head screws with nuts on the back (screws went through the glovebox from the inside).

Swapped fuel tank support bracket just in the nick of time. Swapped water pump to cure leak. New bumper brackets made and fitted along with replacement bumper.

Thanks Data, but how do you mean "badly"?

Hi all, further to my earlier post regarding fuel pump swap, is it possible to do the 1st stages of a tank drop without actually dropping the tank? The guard/carrier needs replacing badly, but can I swap it without actually dropping the tank completely? Nige

Point taken and added to list :) But now the other question: can you buy replacement pipes as a set or do they need to be manufactured?

Hi all, I've got to replace the fuel tank cradle on my '96 4.0 because it hasn't gone rusty....the metal that was there must be on holiday somewhere. The question is: I've looked at RAVE and replacing the fuel pump (according to the spec) involves dropping the tank. Short of disconnecting and...

Kettle on....

Will nanocom do that Wammers? Might have to call my mate Odyssey with promises of brew and biccies...

Next, if you're losing coolant, drain coolant and don't put any more in. Easy.

Hi all, if I set the heater to any value above 'Lo' I get a faceful of red hot air. Does this mean the HEVAC head unit is knackered or might there be other components to check/test?

NGK in my 4.0 GEMS with LPG and no probs

Hi Alistair, no worries about the bumper. It'll be coming off again for fine tuning of the rear brackets so you can measure to your hearts desire. The MoT had advisories that there was rust in the area, but with all the crud removed it's easier to see the extent.

Hi all, having replaced the rotten rear bumper on my 1996 4.0, I've discovered rust in both rear corners underneath. The driver's side has a hole and the other side's not looking that much healthier. Also the inverted 'cup' at the body mount point is quite badly corroded on one side. Is it...

Looks good Pete. I'm going to have mine out again as its slipped slightly so is sitting crooked. What's the app(?) that you've got showing a nice clear front end in the first photo?

Hi all, just to clarify this, with the top half open and the button pushed again, should the bottom half become unlocked/disengaged? The reason I ask is mine needs a light pull at the same time as the button is pressed to actually open. I took the catches off a couple of months back and...

Easy. Buy a replacement mirror complete from a breakers. Fit mirror (super easy). Next drive along road until some wucking fanker clips your newly installed mirror. The glass will just pop out and hang by the wires within the mirror body. Pull over to side of road, engage Park, then clip...

Wondered about that but I've swapped that recently (last 2 months)

Hi all, I've a small issue that's getting irksome. My '96, 4.0 (GEMS) starts fine (as a rule) from cold. But after running up to temperature if I've left it for a few minutes it's a complete sod to start. It turns over fine but doesn't want to fire up. When it eventually does it runs...

16" alloys returned to the fold :-)
