Mine is the same, washer doesn't work the wipers just the pump. Not 100%this is right but doesn't really bother me.

The gearbox takes ATF which is normally red anyway, so probably normal. It you unsure change it, then you know.

Right folks sorry to dig up an ancient thread (I know it's over 3 years old). But the pic above ^^^ is that 90 not lifted? I'm looking t some wheels/tyres in this size but thought id need a 2" lift otherwise they would hit the arches, is this true? Also am I likely to start destroying my diff...

Don't think you can, as they're not cable operated. Sounds like your clutch is worn and. Needs replacing.

Search for north west 4x4. Good group of lads on there arranging p&p days and green laning trips etc.

Something similar to this http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=130540011274&index=5&nav=SEARCH&nid=90115352353

Try changing your points and condenser to an electronic contact less system, reading reviews on them for my 2.5 petrol and people report these solving problems similar to yours. A kit is £20-£30 on eBay so worth doing, a full electronic distributor is ~£70 but might be overkill. From what you...

Haha, suppose I asked for that. TAXI Lol

What did it fail MOT on? Does it need a bulb or a chassis? Or has it just not had a test?

Spot on. Cheers guys, sounds like a squirt of that stuff can't hurt. Lol

What's that mate (sorry for the possibly stupid question)

Thanks for replying guys, I'll look into that spray shifty, probably something available in an everyday motor factors thatll do the trick. Nice 1 Jason, looks like that's my plan then.

Cheers men, that's just the sort of thing I was after. Nice one. Any of you have experiance of the electronic dizzy or didn't you bother with it?

Not looking for any serious wading shifty, just something that can take a splash. I'm not intending to fully sink the engine. Just want the snorkel as a precaution and something that will keep running if it gets a few drips on it. Haha

Hi. Took my 90 off road for the first time today, other than needing better tyres it didn't do too bad, only thing is being a petrol It HATES water!! A couple of times water splashed to bonnet level and it developed a misfire, obviously got the dizzy wet! It started running fine again when left...

Nice pics there stu. Was good to see you mate, can't wait to get out again.

I'm going mate. black 90 with ****ty white road wheels/tyres at the mo. Only going for a stroll around and to see what's going on so you might see me there

I take my steering wheel off when it's parked up, that way either dead lift it on a wagon (like to think somebody would notice a recovery truck in a cul-de-sac lifting my landy) or bring your own wheel! I'm thinking about modifying the steering column too so only my wheel will fit it. Not 100%...

How do you get the chassis number stamped back Onto a new chassis or dumb iron? A 90 I'm looking at has had dumb irons replaced so the number has gone (the chassis plate on the servo is there though), didn't think you could do that??

Cheers fellas. I'm still in 2 minds, really I want a 200tdi but wouldn't turn my nose up at a decent petrol, just don't want to buy one and end up shovelling money into it to get it right, and end up spending more than a TDI would have cost in the first place! I think the only way I'm going to...
