sp00k thanks a lot i have been trying to workout how to clean it, would you have any suggestions for good manual army or civvy book as info seems a bit scarce on ex army vehicles? Flat thanks for the comment she has a recon engine fitted that had done 84k but she was FFR so bit worrying no...

All Thanks for help I will clean out the breather on my next oil change, she came direct from the army so I am guessing the breather is a army design? I will unbolt the generator and sell on as suggested Thanks again Cadlean

Great my only question is any idea what model it is as I have done a bit a digging on this forum as to how to remove the solenoid, but I cannot see a makers plate anywhere I even looked between the starter and the engine with a small mirror but no luck? Thanks cadlean

Update I worked out how to short the solenoid (I think think the right method?) I shorted the red mains post on the solenoid with the small spade terminal, the starter worked and she started up much to my relief as it has been several weeks. (I had the ignition switch in the run position) So...
