G'day

Hello from a new L/R Defender owner. Had a few Disco's and Range Rovers in the past but this is my first Defender. '86 90 2.5 diesel N/A.

Got a few jobs I want to sort, drop link rubber cracked, rust on rear quarters, doors. Part from that, I'll see how it goes. Might 200 TDI it if funds allow.

Was a dirty grey 'till I got the T-Cut out. Even windolene'd the windows and got the tyre dressing done.. I think it's a first for the old girl. Going to scrape the badly painted bumper and do that tomorrow. I'm beginning to wonder if I've got that ADHD or maybe just caught ghey

Trouble is, when you clean things you start to notice things to put on the to-do list. Like the Colway remoulds starting to shed their skin

I take it when you turn the key just past ignition and the choke light comes on that this is the glow plugs heating? How long normally?

Hee hee, don't worry; that's just the pre-amble to getting her REALLY dirty
Yes it is your glow-plugs, they should only stay on for a few seconds
