Yes itll fit. if it does turn out to be a 109" one then that can be modified to fit too

Works really well on a diesel

Is it on parabolics? Symptom of sagged springs

Even easier to go off my common live Easier still is to use the aux and my phone

Not much, look at marine ones

I have a marine isolator switch (the one with a big red key) on the positive wire and is located in the seatbox. Annoying thing with it I forgot to put a permanent live to my radio so it has no memory of stations. Other than that it works perfectly

Some shoes Mintex in particular have square ends when they should be chamfered. This is more a problem in reverse but it can cause the shoes to catch slightly. Not really a problem in the grand scheme of things as it will eventually wear and get better as they bed in and chamfer themselves...

As the great photobucket ransom situation of 2017 has ruined a fair few threads, mine included I thought I'd bang some photos up on here. Not so much a rebuild thread more a thread to document where I go with it and various maintenance jobs to keep her as my daily driver. Soon to include an...

Yes is simpler but I didnt want to cut up my scaffolding tube

I once ended up creating an extremely good unsiezing solution in work out of red diesel and plus gas and other things I cant remember. Was rather potent, used to free off some of my tools (work in a marine environment so tools can go rusty quite quickly), you could see clearly the rust leeching...

Not got an airlock have you? I know trapped air in the system will cause the symptoms you describe, freezing cold bottom hose and hot at the top

I do hate those plastic fuel lines. All the systems Ive done have been in 8mm fuel hose connected with jubilees But yes, if you have enough slack in the pipe you can pull it off cut it and refit it with no issues whatsoever

Sure its not the flange gasket? available for pennies from all lr suppliers

Steve Parker may make an exhaust for this conversion
