    For Sale Series 2 wings

    Mostly from a bad previous paint job by the look of it. The panels are very solid except for halfway through the top panel on both wings. Any sensible offers are welcome

    If I can make it I may end up being one of the people that sits alone I find it very difficult to introduce myself to new people. Well before I have several drinks anyway

    For Sale Series 2 wings

    Hiya. Central Birmingham area I have these 2 wings that came with the landy. I'm not sure on their worth but im told theyre worth selling instead of chucking away. I want to get rid of them as my nan is giving me hell about them taking up space. As I'm unaware of their worth I'd...

    I'm very tempted to come along to this. I'm not the most sociable person on this site as I don't usually get home from work till 2am But it would be nice to meet some like minded people. Also the offer of a single daughter seeking landy owner is awfully tempting ;) :p Will there be any...

    Clutch and glow plug woes

    So after going to paddock and telling them that my old plugs bypassed the ballast and used 12v they managed to sell me the old type and didn't tell me lol no wonder I can't start her up So this is how I should be wired up yes? didn't even know there was 2 ways to wire it in series

    Clutch and glow plug woes

    I didn't have time to take one out today but did snap a picture. I'm fairly certain they had pigtails on the end you can't see inside the block. are they wired right or?

    Clutch and glow plug woes

    Forgive the ignorance. but how exactly do they wire up differently then as that looks exactly the same as my old set were wired in parallel?

    Clutch and glow plug woes

    Seeing as everyone is certain that they wire in series (damn you paddock for giving me the wrong plugs). I assume that the positive end of the plug is at the very top but where do I connect the negative wire ( i.e. the one that then goes to the positive of the next plug) as it's not jumping out...

    Clutch and glow plug woes

    Engine has been recently rebuilt from ground up. I do suspect the injector timing is a little off as I get quite a bit of smoke on acceleration or when under load As for the wiring. prior to rebuild and new plugs it was wired in parallel and bypassing the ballast and worked a treat. Il pop the...

    Clutch and glow plug woes

    The middle looks most like the culprit IIRC. Iv tried running a lead straight from battery to nearest plug to see if it was a wiring problem. Iv tried using it on both sides of the ballast resistor. trying to use them with the ballast in the circuit nearly set fire to my wiring in the cab I may...

    Axle oil leakage s3

    Is there oil just for the hub? Or all for shared with the rear axle? Is it that little felt oil seal I've seen? I'd only need to take the nut and washer off for that wouldn't I?

    Axle oil leakage s3

    Hey guys. So after a short drive out today I noticed after returning to the old girl that she had oil dripping down the wheel. So after popping off the cover and cleaning it and drying it down that I was getting what I presume to be oil from the axle leaking from around the castellated nut. I...

    Series seat belt issues

    It's hard to bend the solid bit when the rest of it is flexible. So doing it bolted in the car doesn't sound feasible But I'm open to the idea of bending it. Any ideas on how for someone without a vice to grip it with Also how would the legality of that work? In the event of an accident...

    Series seat belt issues

    Even if I do that, the button part would still be 90° because it's not for a LH or RH fitting The 1st link I'm not even sure where that goes but the 2nd link is something I do need to be fair but nothinges to do with the initial problem. Thankyou though

    Series seat belt issues

    As above. The part with the button in the 1st picture is what I have. The button part in the 2nd picture is what I believe I should have only mine is part of a static belt set up Currently this is what I'm dealing with Again. Why have craddock told me this is the right one when clearly it isnt
