    the under door to tub sill bar wasn't removed-but mine had no sill panels if that makes sense?

    How to remove heater blower motor from a IIA

    plenty of room to unbolt the blower feet from footwell and lift entire assembly out...minus some knuckle skin :) alternatively take the air intake grill off to release the squirrel cage circlip. it won't fully withdraw with this method as it is wired to resistors in the snail shell

    vacuum gauge 2.25p

    wanting to tune my carb the old vac way but reading some info the vac advance tube on the base of the weber 34ich is not the place to put it. my inlet manifold had a blanking plug which I can adapt, anyone know the thread size/pitch? I guess it's blanked off unless you have servo assisted...

    Tree Slders

    defender ones usually bolt at the bulkhead to chassis bolt up front and then a slide tube for fuel tank outrigger, series is usually same up front but not sure what they bolt to at the rear

    paint protection

    just finished painting my landy, rubbed it down and then applied two coats of this with a roller: sanded with 600 grit between coats to get this: so should I seal it now with a clear coat? what's best? do I polish paint first?

    Few steering relay questions

    are the britpart relays an ok replacement chaps - or do they carry "blue box syndrome"

    Smoke in the Cab when Starting

    my guess is the cable running to the started motor is finding ground at the back of the engine, heating up old oil which is coming through gear stick.. Get a multimeter and check the starter motor side of the starter solenoid to ground...shouldn't get a low reading or zero.
