Well it's still not solved. I replaced the master cylinder and it seems to be a bit better it seems to be loosing pressure between it and the servo. I'm going to try the last 2 suggestions as I have only just got back from the Lake District. (Had to leave the landy behind!)

Right.... I have done another complete bleed the old school way. No air car out whatsoever and I went thought the reservoir twice.

Well when I pump it absolutely nothing happens. It doesn't become stiff it stays exactly the same. I will blew it again the old school method and see if that works.

Could it be the master cylinder has gone? What would it do if there was an air leek into it/it stopped working?

No I left the pipe work attached on the master cylinder. And just carefully pulled it out o get the servo out.

It was rock hard but now has a lot of travel before any pressure is felt. That changed after the new servo.

Right.....I am properly stuck now. I have a brake problem which started with brakes like a brick! Very hard to push on and limited response. Checked the vacuum pump and its was sucking fine. So changed the servo. Now the pedal nearly touches the floor. Tried/done so far: Bearings checked...

Needs to have a trim and a lift. That all happens on Friday!

New wheels and tyres! What a difference it makes.

Rewired all the roof lights. Sorted out the dash so that all the wires run out of sight. What do they say? Out of sight, out of mind!! :)

should i put wd 40 straght into the pipe for the wastegateor just up the actuator arm as far as I can get? (Sorry if i'm being a bit dim!)

Yeah it will be fine. Mine is still running on 5w 30 after I went to the Arctic. (Had to change it for -40c!!) It will increase the chances of you having an oil leek though.

Hi all, I was looking for the reason why I had a complete lack of power, up hill especially, and realised that someone had taken the actuator arm of the elbow joint connecting it to the valve. I tried to put it back on but it has siezed (well I can move it but it is so difficult to move!)...

Nice landy! How did you attach the net to the roof and does it sag much? jason

Ohh right thanks for that, i was just about to hit the order button!!!
