noob help. whats this under the bonnet

[discool]

That's 'cos it doesn't 'do' anything ..unless it's manually operated.

That's normal and sign of the times for some old ones

How do I operate this piece of ****? And where can I find the owners Manual. My car didn't come with any book.

The spare wheel changing equipment looks incomplete. Gonna have to buy the bits separately

"This piece of ****" as you call it is actually a very useful hydraulic bottle jack.

Just as a matter of interest, were you ever taught manners and politeness as a youngster?

Most people when asking for help say please, for example "Does anyone know where I can get an owners manual, please?"

Then some kind person will respond by saying "Do a Google search for it"

You can download them off the net.

sh-t just looked under my bonnet and there it was never seen it before
moved it a little and the front of my disco fell off
so if i was you i would slowly shut the bonnet
and give it to some one who would give it a better home

ps dont tell them its there might not want to take it of your hands

the other bits are usually under the rear seat ..... middle if its a 7 seater with seats in the boot.

if you really are clueless get on ebay and find a haynes manual and an instruction book ... theyll save you a lot of grief

I just got this discovery.
can someone please tell me what this is: it doesnt seem to do anything

It's the piston return spring bottle clamp, only really used if the gudgeon pin circlip has become entangled in the exhaust valve relief cup.

Under normal operation the handle points downwards. Sometimes the 'head' rotates however you need to be careful of that (sorry to state the obvious but sometimes these simple things are overlooked).

That one looks like it's been used a few times so i'd check the compression ratio's carefully as soon as you can and look for signs of damage on the kettle uplift crank pulley under the exhaust.

Hope that helps

That miktdish can realy talk dirty.
