that hole is what we had to winch into out of the hole we nose dived into and flooded the electrics. the first pull the engine was dead and the winch was under water
first day out with a winch. ace
Spray the inside of the dizzy cap in WD40, fit the cap in place then smother the dizzy cap, plug leads and where the plug leads fit over the plugs in grease.
i did all my series trucks this way and never had a problem inc having the bonnet of one under a foot of water at Weston Coyney with the engine running, snorkel fitted of course

like you say a good coat of WD or the like works wonders and its amazing how they still seem to run under water,
when ever i think ive wet the ignition an have a miss fire i find its a couple of plug leads have come off not a damp problem
No8 & no7 are close to the bulk head and keep coming off
Ive found my running problem as while under water my home made intake let some muck into the carb blocking a main jet so it was only running on one choke, it wasnt miss firing it just sounded like a strangled 4 cylinder
The other problem was the winch on full pull was using all the electric and not leaving enough for the motor
All good fun though

Was it a good day? I've only been once before and that was a good few years ago but i'm hoping to head there on sunday if all goes to plan.
if you look on there web site Home | Frickley 4x4 Offroad Centre they say that some work on the site has been done but there are alot of places that are still as rough as hell. in this weather the ground will be hard and the ruts deep making it a bone shaker ride
there was not many folk about for a tow when i went (another meat on somewhere ) but they now have two tractors to pull you out
have fun

Awesome, cheers. I'll be going with a couple of mates so hopefully a tow will be a phone away, lol.
