No new news or fresh comment; Just bitter at the way my Friday Fun was curtailed by the failure of a cheap and nasty part that experience should have told me to expect. Why am I so stupid? why did I even fit it? Bah!

Where can I buy a brake like switch? not made of plastic............. Not Nasty and cheap.....

Just setting out for the first road run of my new, 1955 land rover and the brake lights are stuck on. Why? because the Bloody awful blue box brake light switch I found in the workshop had fallen to pieces. I KNOW THEY DO THIS. why did I use it? we couldn't fix it... I am old enough to know...

idle speed- all vibrates at idle.

I would stretch a stocking over the funnel when I poured it back into the cooling system. Tip; give the stocking a rinse before you put it back in your wife's stocking drawer

SWB diesel S3 towing 2 tons on M5, I got so slow that an artic not realising how slow I was, was forced to overtake on the hard shoulder. scary. fitted a ford transit 2.5di, no turbo but a really nice vehicle now-

have you resolved this?

it always does- don't worry, if you filter it , you may reuse it.
