    Brake Bleeding

    i was trying to save a little money but it seems i will need to replace the master cylinder and brake servo. I just hope that clears it up. Also, she shook a wire loose in the dash last night and caught fire. It was all terribly exciting. Burnt the hell out of my hand, and now i have to go in...

    Brake Bleeding

    Is such a pain. I know it has been beaten to death but going through every proceedure to get rid of this squishy pedal and it's frustrating as hell. I replaced the from wheel cylinders and shoes, surfaced the drums by .003, replaced the flex lines which were looking rough. I got her all...

    Thermostat Help

    i had the same issue, though mine was a conversion and the guage and sender missmatch. What let me know that was. . touching the heater hose when the guage was pegged. and realising that though it was hot, it was not boiling hot . . .

    biodiesel seris 2 - 200tdi

    For the record i don't mean this in any insulting kind of way. My wife and i have considered moving to Scotland and insurance and tax differences are some of the intimidating parts of a move like that.

    biodiesel seris 2 - 200tdi

    In the U.S. miles driven has very little affect on insurance costs and no affect on coverage. I insure 4 cars for my wife and I with liability coverage for basically unlimited miles for about £285/ year

    biodiesel seris 2 - 200tdi

    in my opinion running biodiesel in an old diesel engine is a pretty bad idea. The impurities in the fuel (even well made fuel) will eventually eat the rubber seals in your injection pump (viton seal in newer equipment resists this). I would suggest isntead running vegoil/diesel mixed. just vary...

    Trailers

    That's pretty darn similar. In the U.S. there is no chance of gettign a Sankey at a good price, but the M101a3 should do her up just fine.

    Add a satin clear coat then. I dunno I think bare aluminum might be best left for the Delorean.

    Who'll Stop the Rain

    In regard to the thread title apparently not my 109. It kinda delays the rain, but i still get wet. My wife just had me watch this film as she is a HUGE Creedance Clearwater Revival fan (which is odd for a 27 year old) but to my delight through the movie Nick Nolte drives '58 (i think) Landy...

    heater upgrade

    This is the route i went. It is a little pricey but my heater core was shot and the motor slow and weak. So since it replaces the whole jimmyjam it's not too pricey. With this additional plenum it attaches right to the tube for the drivers side windshield defroster. Pretty slick and so far into...

    First proper test drive- some issues...

    If it is a lot of smoke you can look to the injectors. When diesel injectors get old they leak and drip fuel constantly into the cyls and that can cause a lot of smoke. They may need replacing. I would try some cable lube before repalcing the speedo cable.
