    Series 2 body looks lopsided

    Mine leans that way and I have checked a few, they all seem to! Seems like fuel tank, battery and driver on the same side give it a tilt.(non canvas)

    Truck cab seat belt brackets?

    They are only a fiver each from dealers. I got them from land ranger but they all have them, cheaper than eBay.

    Will it be TAX free?

    Yeh, Ken Clarke was chancellor and a car buff, made 25 year old cars tax exempt, but then lost the election, new chancellor, exemption fixed at that point. 1/1/72. Think the new chancellor will re-instate it? Don't hold your breath.

    Just had a quick look on ollr site and some spam froze my iPad! They need to get a more secure system.

    New 2.2l ford duratorq in a Series

    Interesting point about homologation of engines, I have a hazy memory that the 19J engine is accepted in places like switzerland and the US, but later ones like the 200 tdi's aren't. We have a very free system in Britain, not the same everywhere.

    series 3 what a different experience

    My 2a has tighter steering than the 90s I have had, not saying much but a methodical check as suggested could make a big difference, but watch the braking in the wet, especially if you have knobbly tyres. Did a four wheel drift the day I changed to Michelin 4x4-ORs.

    Heater options?

    I now have two leaking round smiths heaters! I am giving up on buying 40 year old spares and thinking of biting the bullet with a new heater for the winter. There are some kit car heaters at £125 on eBay, anybody tried one? Or is there an easy option?

    heater problem.

    It should pull out far enough to fiddle behind, that way you don't have to start re-attaching things like the speedo cable which can be a pain. Just enough to get your hand is is fine, I was able to change the voltage regulator on the bulkhead and wire up an auxiliary socket to replace the green...

    heater problem.

    I had the same problem with my diesel cut off switch. As I don't need it with a 19j engine and it was disconnected, the panel came out easy, now it's my heater control, with a heater valve in the pipeline, I have to disconnect the cable at the engine end to get the panel out.

    hello there!

    Had the S2 truck cab for about 5 months now, constant fiddling around of course. 19j engine, so a well sorted S2 with headlights in the grille, loads of new parts was much cheaper than expected. You lot just don't like that engine do you? Had a 90 for years with no problems, same with others I...
