Thanks @myster for the advice and makes perfect sense... rather do the job properly than bodge it :)

That's a good point... hadn't even considered the AMPs

I'm in the throws of starting my soft top conversion on my 90 TD5... yeah I know its a bit late for summer, but given everything I've done on the her so far has taken 10times as long as first thought I should be in time for next!! Anyway... As part of this work, I'll be loosing the rear door...

OK... new inertia switch ordered as the existing one was broken off the bulkhead (think my limited mechanical skills can handle that one... now I know what it is... Thanks again @Interceptorxj and @marjon) and I have a mate coming over to do a sniffer test on it tomorrow. So fingers crossed its...

Cheers Interceptorxj (and everyone else)... I’ll keep you posted on it :)

Nothing underneath or on the drive... seems to disappear as the engine is cooling down after being driven. NOT LOOKING GOOD!!

Thanks Interceptorxj... I'll organise getting it reversed tested!! should have kept the D3 :D:p

Thanks Marjon... it is right mess back there for sure. Looks like the previous owner didn't really care to much for what he was doing... breather pipes, duck tape and all sorts going on!! Thanks for the tip on the inertia switch (didn't know what it was/ did or where it should be... getting...

Have checked all the hoses and can find any that seem split and nothing showed up under the pressure test that I had a mechanic do :confused:

The hose isn't too squishy or too hard... will flex with medium pressure

Seems to be something to do with the fuel pump/system... not the coolant!! just had coolant get in the end of it :(

Hi tottot... thanks for the response :) I have checked the expansion tank and the only thing I found was the cap was buggered (so replaced it) no sign of leaks from the tank itself when pressure tested... the pipe in the pic's seems to come from the bulkhead by the expansion tank and the...

hi... I’ve been chasing an ongoing coolant issue for weeks now. Changed hoses, pressure tested, new expansion cap and Head Gasket checked, etc. On digging around today I found this (see pics) and it seems to have coolant is leaking from it!! I’m no mechanic and as such have know idea what it...

Could it be as simple as a buggered expansion tank cap? (pressure tested and new silicone hoses fitted and all good there)... would explain the coolant sprayed al over the inside of the bonnet around the tank :rolleyes:, but am I really that lucky? Guess I find out tomorrow when the new one...

Mostly today I will be hunting down my mysterious coolant leak!! :mad::confused:

Welcome... nice looking truck :)

Great intro and welcome... they certainly know how to have a 3some in the Netherlands :p;)

Firstly welcome Matt. My advise on the LED headlights is spend a little more and go for recognised ones (Truck, etc.) rather than cheap sets from eBay... from personal experience getting these cheaper sets (even if DOT approved) can cause issues in getting the correct alignment and will lead to...

Am I the only one that read that (in my mind) with a stupid inspector Clouseau accent? :confused: Anyway... welcome :)

Welcome to the forum. In answer to your original question (speaking from having a 15mth old and a 90)... you'll struggle to get ISOfix fitted, as the rear seats are either side facing (minimum age for use of these seats is 12 years) or forward facing which fold up to the side, therefore not...
