I did a very professional job of ignoring today. Mind you it is very easy to do a comprehensive ignoring when you have such a high-flying, jet-setting, international adventure travel occupation :cool: My mind and body was consumed today...

Edit: I fitted a new PCV/crankcase breather kit, the one below. The kit I changed out had an oily filter, but I wouldn't say loads of oily residue around the casing. It was a bit oily, for sure. Annoyingly I seem to have thrown the original out -...

Which engine is this for?

Ooh, that's a good one👍

I've got one of those for the Volvo, it sounds good. About 30€ from Amazon 👍

Exacerbated by being in a Tyvex suit with a ffp face mask on 🤣 It’s my own fault, I could’ve paid the £3k the contractor wanted to do the job. I just channelled my inner @kevstar and thought the money would be better spent on a tractor.

I have the unenviable task of removing 30 year old loft insulation today. Unavoidably the task day is set for today and tomorrow. Having been up there last week, it is like a furnace.

Going to be hot again. Make sure yer put water out for wild life. Tis a good job eye gottid me harvester wuking. Eye collect 4x the amount of rain eye did before. Helps to correct the lack ov rains.

I proposed that! She's working in another country, infortunately, so I'd have to throw in a plane ticket... I think I'll simply start by removing the dashboard and study how the harness is routed, and take it from there!

Thanks, Can't find the carlube atf here..

Ok chaps, update on @ChuggyFreelander ’s car… Main issues for MOT are excessive smoking and handbrake. My advice was to sort the smoking first, if dealt with, then replace the rear brakes. Seems to be an injector issue going on as the balancing...

It's probably because your engine RPM is too high 🤔

I can't tell if this is a regular who made a new account to create some fun; or a complete mong.

Sounds like you need to offer some beers in exchange for a bit off help, after helicopters a RR will be easy :vb-tup:

Easy Tiger. Other means are available, one does not merely swan. :vb-disagree:

@ChuggyFreelander Off-topic, but as promised; PB blaster is my first go-to for releasing rusty nuts and bolts. Soaking time is your friend here. Owatrol Polytrol is brilliant for restoring your black trims on the car.

Morning All. :D Looks like another nice day! :) Have a great day. :D

Should we set up some kind of roster, taking advantage of international membership, to ensure we manage the ignoring 24/7??? @GrumpyGel already took one for the NZ team; while you lot were swanning around in clapped out old Land Rovers, instead...

Are thay planning to retire there, love to see them squatting at 70yrs 😉😉

.

Not copper grease my mate and only if its silicon grease not sealer! 🤔. If you don't have any other grease, wet the oring outer surface which will allow them to slide in while fitted on the pipe end.

Time for some corporate-sanctioned avoidance.

Always worth a look at the how to videos on youtube.

Hi Landy Folks, I have a Britpart Alternator AMR4249 that the box has the number 19081712 on it also. It's for my 1996 Defender 90 (RHD, No A/C). I am looking for the correct matching pully. The the stock Land Rover Alternator, on the truck...

I have copper grease, or is silicon better? Also, are the O rings supposed to fit snug in to the matrix? Right now the pipes slot in but they don't go in much and have little resistance

Nope I dont live in a top floor flat.

The LRO mag did a piece in the magazine in the early 2000s so way before forums. I expect a few of the other LR mag at the time did as well, but my subscription was with LRO from 1987 after I purchased my new RR
