    Don't you just take the fuel pump and sender out and bend the wire (with the float on it) until it's right ??

    Good to know it’s not just me… I’ve come inside for a tea and a distress. I’m going to go rummage around (in the rain) again afterwards. What a mess about!

    Mine is constantly somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2, it's like fuel roulette. I really need to look into it, feeling like it very much could be an earth issue or something else electrical as I had issues with the temp gauge to begin with too.

    I might be in the market for another L322, it's actually for a friend. Don't mind if it has some issues as I can sort most things out and will do a load of preventative maintenance if I do buy one, a sort of project is preferable. It needs to...

    Not that I can feel or get at with the flexi magnet. God I hope not. Where abouts are they located? I’ve had the magnet down all of the channels in the top and I’m confident I’ve checked every area. I won’t tell you…👀

    I'll give that a go, ta.

    Fingers crossed for the latter then! Would it have been able to fit down a return at the back of the engine? I don’t think it bounced towards the front but who knows…

    Nano says the pot is duff. I've tried forcing it with the nano but getting no % movements. I remember unplugging the hvac last year, I think, which fixed something that wouldn't work. iirc, all motors were working as they should but the book...

    Mines easy to do. Call them or report it online. Gorra get the right company responsible for the location. There will be priority fer wot reports come in. Ours gives feedback if they find it or call to ask fer more info if they can't.

    Peeps on my local "Nextdoor" are always reporting leaks and often nothing gets done at all. A lot of our area is not supplied by Bournemuff Water.

    Public out cry will help. But water companies have know fer years how difficult it is to get planning permission to pass. Hence why their desire to build a new res, wurnt apempted. Its quite damaging to the environment assit wipes it all out when...

    Blob replied to the thread Mysterious coolant leak.
    I've had great success with the pressure testers. You can see those with the engine cold and turned off which makes actually finding the leaks a lot easier. If your leak is actually a cold fault (i.e. sealing up when it warms up) then that's...

    I once did similar on a Dolly Sprint engine, it was one that attached the timing chain sprocket to the camshaft. It fell in the sump. Getting it out again was messy, very messy, but I did it without having to drain the oil. Had to get the sump...
  • pwood999
    If it went down one of the oil returns, chances are it's in the sump ? From that angle, my bet would be it bounced on chassis or drive shafts & is lodged or stuck to an oily bit below. If it hit the ground it could have bounced anywhere...

    That suggests they dunt fix any. They is always fixing them. Finding them is the difficult bit. Easy on the surface if water appears and someone reports it. More difficult if the leak stays under ground.

    Which backs up wot eye said. Thicket was being finked about for a decade before the planning application was submitted.

    Cycle the ignition a few times without starting. On mine I can usually hear the motors moving after a while. The docs say it self- calibrates every X hundred uses, but who knows what the real number is !!

    No, but if there’s a bolt in there it might as well have!! I’m not sure I dare! It ‘skipped’ across to the right bank and then I lost sight of it

    Morning all, PLEASE can anyone offer some insight into the below! I’m desperate here… For context I’m in the process of putting everything back together after doing the timing chains. Biggest thing I’ve ever done but largely went without issue...

    Maybe a bit of bushing and then making a key for it??? Would call for more precision than I could manage with the tools I have, in either country. Is it a Bird, is it a Plane?? No it is Superbodger!!!!!! (Who uses spots of weld to secure the...

    I knew it was only a matter of time before someone said summat like this, although @Avocet1 ran me a close second and I have since relearned what I learned as a rep. "after the first 10 seconds of you talking they will mentally switch off" 10...

    From the Morris Minor Owners' club. For exactly the same reason, but they didn't usually run with knock-ons!! I see what you are getting at, yes the inertia of the loose pulley could inadvertently work against everything.

    Accoding to t'news, they are about to open a new one somewhere, or start building it, or summat. Need to research it a bit more. We are lucky in that Bournemouth Water (as was, now bought up) keeps finding new ways to store water so we don't...

    It depends on which way you are looking at the pulley when you describe its turning direction. Looking face on to the pulley and the nut, you want the nut turning in the opposite direction to the pulley as you are looking at it to ensure it...

    I tried to help to just to close it out around 10 pages back. I think we just need to drop it now, every post gets another essay as to why we're being laughed at. I'm ok with being laughed at.
