What have you done to your Landie today.

Good idea, also if your feeling adventurous, plumb the from the inlet manifold to the waste gate, the waste gate will only open when the set pressure is at the intake, rather than at the turbo. This made a big difference to mine with a wound up fuel pump, turbo @ 1 Bar and an Allisport intercooler

I have no Idea I'm guessing from my farm.

Took it over 158,000 miles

carried on cutting the rot out lots of cutting

Worked out the fuel consumption from last night 250 miles motorway blat.

A steady 65 mph all the way returned 19.5 mpg.

Kinda scarey that I'm quite pleased with that Badly need an overdrive

No problem But make sure your happy with the condition of your engine, and especially the turbo, before doing so I can't be held responsible if anything goes wrong :bolt:

Picked up the door frames from the sand blasters, Pricier than anticipated and made worst by the guys BS. Was quote £25 to £40 for 2 doors got there and was told it was gonna be £60 Then Got told that he'd done me a favor cos the sandblasting guy had taken 3 hrs to strip them, BUT he was only charging me for 1hr. £60 Per hour??? FFS I'm off to invest in a sandblasting kit..

That much more power eh :scratching_chin:

Might just leave it for now till the mot is over and done

Nipple ready now though

fitted all the led blubs over the weekend as they turned up then drove to mk with the indicators going nuts as the flasher relay didn't like the lower power useage lol so switched back to the standard bulbs for the indicators. fitted a siren horn to replace the standard alarm horn so I will definately know if the alarm goes off now now just to get ready for the welding of the chassis this week that I have off
