    Fuel getting everywhere but wont start without help :-(

    OK I'm looking to see how deep inside the needle valve is, would I need to pull the carb to get to it or can it be done on the engine? (maybe a over hall kit?) Would it be quicker and a better long term bet to change the whole carb, i see Mr Craddock offers a after market carb for £33 oe a...

    WOW ! well its only taken about 4 weeks but I got around to pulling the diff. I had to take the gearing from the housing to get the broken half shaft out and i just wondering if i have re assembled it correctly ? I wound the adjuster plates in as far as i could by hand then un-wound them...

    Bit of a bang when bump starting then no Drive

    evening all... well its taken a while but i had a look and the off side shaft is a bit shorter then it should be :-( Question.... If I pull both half shafts what's the chances of pushing the broken end out from the other side ( i have a long stick that should be long enough) Thanks Andy

    Bit of a bang when bump starting then no Drive

    Silly Question but do i need to jack each side up to save loosing loads of EP90 when I pull the shaft ???? (rather ask now than find out the hard way) LOL Thanks Andy

    Bit of a bang when bump starting then no Drive

    Tried to bump start my SWB 1971 ser 3, lifted the clutch and had a bit of a bang, now only have drive in low and High 4 wheel drive. Rear Prop is spinning but back wheels aren't…. Would I be correct in thinking a half shaft or are there any more likely causes??? Wonder what I’m doing...
