Replaced the back rubber axle stops and adjusted the silencer which I think may have been banging when going over bumps and pot holes.

Drove threw 4ft of water to go and rescue my horses out of a field that had burst it's banks worst for 60 years never seen water like it.
Bet you enjoyed that
We missed it here, some localised flooding at high tide this afternoon but all gone tonight.
Big problems though cause Thelwall Viaduct closed after an artic blew over so gridlock in town.
Took Landy for an 80 mile run this morning, goes very well

Loved it and having a 90 showed everyone else that they couldn't do it. as I had to tow 3 cars out one being a range rover sport 2010 which now has no engine as it run on water for a bit
and had to be put on the back of recovery truck 1-0 defender.

Was going to be changing the injector harness till I noticed the torque setting of the cover bolts, mine doesn't go low enough and the thought of stripping the threads doing it by guesswork was enough to have me running to fleabay to buy a low range torque wrench. Ended up removing the remaining internal panels while I've got the rooflining out so I can give everything a good clean. Oh, and ordered an EGR removal kit.

Nice one mate, I know that feeling after towing trucks and cars in the snow with the V8 a few years ago

Swapped the Radio/Cassette player for a CD player and discovered that the new unit will control the old CD changer

How are you cutting that Drivel?
Might need some doing for my V8 tvr hybrid
which bit ? the flywheel adaptor or the manifolds ?
Manifolds are just being hand cut, grinder, drill, file, hacksaw, do it the old fashioned way as theres no need to laser cut these at uni, its just an old carb motor
Adaptor will be turned on a lathe
