Ooooo... playtime on the weekend, relays to disassemble first, then if no joy, blower motors, Christ, they wern't kidding when they said you better be prepared to get the spanners out if you own a P38 lol!

Doesnt even work on Auto:(

So, my fan works..... sometimes, no rhyme or reason to it, one day I can jump in and everything works, fan goes like the clappers when you turn it up... other times it doesn't work at all. Odd thing is, sometimes I can shut the engine down, take the key out, then put the key back in and start it...

This is the work he did, the material is like the baize you get on snooker tables, except its grey obviously... the marks you can see are the "knap" in the material, you can brush it one way to make it darker, or smooth it back the other way for a lighter colour... or if you are a bit soppy you...

I don't know where I saw one, maybe it was on here, but a site started a thread that people could add garages, mechanics, parts shops etc to that gave great service, or good discounts, or great advice, or went the extra mile to help us 4x4ers, so that anyone could see it and contact them. It...

According to most of the feedback I've had across a few forums, the threads will be destroyed if I try to take them off in the traditional way.

Well, I think I'm going to try the following, in order.. Coke/vinegar/plusgas/WD40 Quicksteel (been recommended to try Chemical Metal, similar stuff). Then, if they don't work, I'll try the standard approach of putting second-hand pipes and cooler on. Once I've got the old ones off (going to...

I suppose I could try it, can always go to plan "B" if it doesn't work.

Quicksteel?

Bridgend, South Wales.

Already on it, got my beady eye on some on Ebay.

Well, I'll buy the bits, and for a giggle give the coke a go, but I'm guessing from all the feedback that at the end of it, I'll have replaced the oil cooler and both pipes, and have a knackered oil cooler covered in coke that I took off lol.

Someone has just suggested a rather radical approach. Coke. No, not the white powder... the stuff you drink. Apparantly you shake a bottle gently, with your fingers over the end, and direct the spurt of coke over the corroded area, having first tightened the nut slightly to "crack" the...

General feedback across a couple of similar sites tends to favour the " you are in the S*** " way of thinking. Seems the "welding" issue is very common, and I'm likely to trash the threads on the ally. Guess I'll bite the bullet, buy the bits, and see how it goes. Have had a thought about...

Well, that's one vote for "there may be trouble ahead" lol. No way of telling if anyone has done me a huge favour and stuck some sort of anti-seize majibbins on, so unless anyone comes up with a more hopeful experience, its looking likely that santa may be getting a late "Dear santa, for xmas...

Hiya gang, yes its me again! Ok, got a very (very) slight oil leak from the bottom oil pipe going onto the cooler, mechanic says it may be the o-ring, but cant be sure until its apart. I'm tempted to get a bit oily and do it myself, but here's the rub, apparently the junction where the oil...

Sod that, I'm not drilling holes in my Tank!:eek:

I've been looking to put light grills on my Tank, and started looking at various sites. I was advised to make sure I got the brackets and screws for them too... but I just took a look at my lights and there are no (visible) screws holding them in, its possible that the lights are not original...

Had to go pick my daughter up tonight, and as it was a run where there were mixed sections of mountain roads, dual carriageway and standard roads, I had a play with the computer. I had a rough idea of expected MPG, usually around 27, however on a stretch where I was cruising along in a line of...
