Finally fixed the leaking fuel cap on Buttercup, the rubber washer/sealing ring on the cap was letting diesel pass so kept getting fuel on the wing. After a lot of faffing about bought a sheet of 3mm nitrile rubber and cut a replacement. Seems to work so far.:):)...................then checking this morning noticed the mud flap on the rear had gone to the place in the sky where they go to when having a hissy fit.:mad::(:mad:
As luck would have it I have spares due to being a thick **** and overordering a couple of years ago.

Not so thick then.;):D
 
Never easy with P38s is it?
I have 3 door looms.
All made within 3 months of oldest to newest (07/99, 08/99, 09/99). All 3 have enough differences that it isn't a simple case of plug and play.
First loom had 3 plugs at the a post, same everywhere else. Second has 2 plugs at the a post, different almost everywhere else... but one location. The door lock. Think I'll splice the 2 known good looms together and hope I get one working door.

If you ever get it working, make sure the wires are secured well away from the window regulator.:)
I put all the proper clips in place. Just in case I can sort it. But I may have to sell it for scrap so I can get sometime to commute to work in. Back at work on Monday and no way of getting there. :(

Pull a sicky and keep the beast.:) Have you had the the earache," you should have sorted my car out" from the Boss yet?:eek:
 
Well after it playing up yesterday and this morning I had to change the battery in the second"jog" remote, quite happy as I checked when I did the work around and it was eight years ago. Not bad eh @brianp38dse ;):D:D

I am still on the original batterys now you mention it, mind you it is not getting the use it used to do when it was the everyday driver:D
but still impressive for cheap Chines bit of kit:)

if you've only moved the piston, it will seize up again in next to no time.. it needs to come out for a full clean of the piston and its cylinder
a light smear with red rubber grease helps to keep things free
