    Bulkhead Outrigger - Patch or Replace?

    Very true..... Could be a plan then. I'm more concerned with just getting it through an MOT for now, but long term I need to have a good look at the chassis and give it a thorough de-gunging and repair any issues.

    Bulkhead Outrigger - Patch or Replace?

    Hi All Lots of work to do this weekend - replacing floor panels/footwells and rebuilding drivers door after some knackerjack reversed a Honda Civic into it. While checking the sills etc, and having a general nose about the chassis before the MOT in 10 days, I noticed the drivers side...

    Inner Sill Replacement 110 CSW

    Question time again... Someone reversed into the drivers door of the landy, decimating the door and damaging sill covers and the actual sills that run under the edge of the floor plates. These obviously need replaced now... The doors no problem, but I'm confused about the sills. I've...

    Strange electrical problem..

    Hey all.... I've a long running problem with the power feed to the landy stereo. I've checked all fuses,and tried a replacement stereo, but still no further forward. When testing the voltage on the plug into the stereo, it 'pulses' between showing a voltage and zero... Any ideas...

    Radio issue after flooding.....

    Hi all.... After the recent heavy rain, I got into the 110 to drive home from work only to find the inside of the landy was wetter than an otters pocket.. Luckily, the electricals seemed to be unharmed. The radio has now stopped working, but all fuses are OK. Another radio in place won't...

    Smoking oil cap...

    Well, Its at the garage now, where they seem to think its possibly a sticky valve. I'll update once I hear back from them as to what it was, in the hopes that someone with a similar problem can search and get an answer... Many thanks for the comments and help.

    Smoking oil cap...

    I removed the rocker cover and watched while the engine was running - getting covered in oil at the same time.... what I did notice was what I think is the injector housing was discoloured - more of a burnt bronze colour than the normal steel colour.....

    James. I really can't thank you enough for your advice, but after sleeping on it, I'm going to let a garage sort my problems out as the vehicles needed for work and an upcoming holiday. Many Thanks again....

    Smoking oil cap...

    I shall do... Many, many thanks! Am I looking at replacing the valve seals at all, or the valves, or is this exploratory to determine exactly whats wrong....

    Bugger. Expensive garage job?

    They all looked like they opened and shut, with a little freeplay when the engine was off - but not a lot at all....

    Smoking oil cap...

    Blowing - Its whats giving the 'phut phut' sound.....
  17. M

    Smoking oil cap...

    Right. Thanks so far, I appreciate it. Done that, all seems OK. Got missus to turn engine over, and one valve is blowing.... How much of a job is that for a novice, and how much is it likely to cost!

    Smoking oil cap...

    OK.... rocker cover is off, valves look OK at first glance. .. Next daft question.... how do I turn engine by hand? seems very stiff, assuming I'm doing it properly.....

    Smoking oil cap...

    Ok. I'll try that now!

    Smoking oil cap...

    So I'd just remove the bolt in the middle of the cover? What would I be looking for...All valves moving? Would I start the engine with the rocker cover off to see this?
