Crap old pics, but you can see what I did, pics dated 2015 and all still okay. Just wired to a toggle switch under the dashboard. Car runs fine even with the pump switched off, but will lack power on hills until you switch the pump back on. Also...

Hi All Just got back home and noticed fluid on the rear offside wheel... Took wheel off and the brake pipe has pitted and sprung a leak. It's on the section that leads from the rubber hose back to the engine bay. I've managed to stop it leaking...

The 31st was a long and difficult day! It all started going wrong about 200m from the startline when we found numerous deep, deep luggas (dry water course, normally cut 5-6 feet down and across). Leaning at 45 degrees then made the engine cut...

Anyone tried spraying Vienna Green code 751 ??? Now on second mix to match aerosol from a company I have used many times before and it is still too green. The original colour is a gold / green / grey. The last spray is the best, hoping with...

Don't use those words while talking about your present engine, you'll give it ideas 🤯😜

Well you'd have loved it if it had been "torque -clé " cos that would sound nearer to Torquay. What is funny is that the word "torque" does look very French as a lot of their words finish in "que" in fact "que" on its own is a word. I'll have...

ok. Ignoring . . . .

Pressure test with engine hot & not running ?

Hi Litch, Do you remeber the 300tdi auto you test drove? I have a 1995 which couldn't be slower, I just wonder if it's the same car. I need to find out why it's sooo bad. I am not sure if it's the engine or gearbox that's killing it. It can...

Down my leg :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I've had an epic oil leak for a while now and think I've finally tracked it down. I've just done a load of work on the Disco and noticed that oil was pooling on the lip of the block under the oil cooler with the engine running. I cleaned it up...

No No stop :stars: Too late I need to get changed again:(:(

Or possibly take it out first if you believe it’s an issue. Should be able to poke a single sheet of towel paper down there just make sure you get it all out before driving around. Ask me how I know 🔥
