    300 water pump failure

    I don't think so. The leak is accompanied by a dry metal sounding rumble that started when my tensioner went.

    300 water pump failure

    I have a leak from around the water pump sort of area lol. No sign of damaged hoses hence why asked if pump could fail with no signs of play. I have a spare in the box of bits so will swap it out. I know its over 5 years old so at least its one less thing to fail in the snow lol.

    300 water pump failure

    Visually checked when belt on, on play, physically checked when stopped with belt on and off, no play.

    300 water pump failure

    Probably random question, but is it possible for a water pump to fail and there not be any play in the pulley?

    mystery wires...

    right, to cut a short story even shorter I have a minor exhaust manifold leak and because i didn't fix it, it became a major manifold leak which ended up in a small fire :rolleyes: lesson learnt. Anyway, all alternator wires burnt. Replaced them, everything works but charge voltage has...

    Adrian Flux should wear a highwayman mask

    Is it? AF were contacted the minute I noticed the money was still in the new account, and a letter was received from HSBC that 2 attempted payment were not paid (the inital installment, then the 2nd attempt. It was AF who stated to me on the phone that they "could not set up or restart an...

    Adrian Flux should wear a highwayman mask

    It should have been sorted when it occurred, instead AF demanded full payment of the policy. As it was impossible as i was very ill at the time and off work AF opted to cancel the policy instead. All this because the company that takes the installments were told of a change of bank details...

    Adrian Flux should wear a highwayman mask

    Just don't opt to pay by installments if anything might alter during the duration of the policy. It'll get cancelled because the morons can't deal with basic administrative changes.

    a question about Lift, tyres etc...

    Guess its a re-occurring subject lol. Think the missus would need a ladder to get in if i did that. Got a 14 year old fat lump of a mutt as well, would need a ramp.

    a question about Lift, tyres etc...

    no, not that question... I already worked out what size tyres etc. I have a D1 300Tdi Auto on a 2in lift, recently lifted still running on 205/80/16s on steel wheels. Have had people telling me if i go too big on tyres my gearbox, diff etc will go Nagasaki on me, but they are Jeep and...

    It is, think the point is not to reinvent it, just replace the Britpart bearings so it moves again lol. The old 'rules' about ch 9 for emergency, 14 for mobile calling and 19 for base calling went out the window years ago.

    Because when the wheel stops turning of you end up with a flat, it helps to get it going again.

    Adrian Flux should wear a highwayman mask

    i wouldn't use Adrian Flux again, it's not them I have an issue with, it's the idiots who handled their installment collection being unable to grasp a simple bank account change.

    A dedicated 4x4 channel on CB.

    If i have my friend and her kids in the car i can't leave it on anyway. Amateur radio may be more technical and stuffy, but at least the kids can listen to it too. I would recommend that 16 be the preferred calling channel, once you make contact agree to move to another channel so to leave 16...

    A dedicated 4x4 channel on CB.

    Afraid the only channel that sees any use in North East Lincs is 19 where the muppets play music and drunkenly swear at each other, not that there is anything wrong with such behaviour, except on the airwaves. I normally sit on 10 and 145.500MHz, but if a national 4x4 preferred channel was...
