    Slow moving things on here or does no-one actually work on their cars anymore? Reduced again.

    Mine is a 1989 and it has the slot. To my knowledge it is standard on all models. The number of turns from lock to lock is not a guarantee that the box is centred as the tracking could have been adjusted incorrectly, the steering stops on the...

    Reread my post, I did not suggest tracking the vehicle based on the steering wheel but on the number of turns from both ends. This would then confirm that the steering wheel had been refitted on the correct spline. Your comment on the slot is...

    Set the steering wheel central, count turns from either end, is the steering wheel on correctly? Track the vehicle up with the steering in that position, a tape measure and two people will do. I made a tracking gauge, like used to be used on...

    Injectors rebuilt. Just waiting for new sealing washers and will see what difference that makes.

    I have known this winch from the mid 90's as it belonged to a good friend of mine, who has now passed hence in my ownership. We did a number of Bulldog Trophy challenge events using it along with many greenlane outings. Anyone remember those...

    Thank you @lynall for the feedback. Price now reduced to reflect your comments and I may consider near offers. I'll dig out the pto box and shafts to take relevant pictures.

    If you're going to play that game and expense, you should back flush the rad and matrix ... Or you can trust the stuff to do what it says on the tin ...

    Eldon replied to the thread TD5 Defender Coolant Replacement.
    Protection climbs up to around 50% then starts to drop off giving no benefit. I run my bikes at around the 30% mark. You could test the current fluids specific gravity with a dropper float device. This would give you an idea where you currently...

    Eldon replied to the thread Gearbox “sloppy” neutral.
    Sloppy beats the lever coming off in your hand :confused: Yep been there done that. Whilst there, check carefully where the ball top meets the shaft for fatigue and stress.

    I have for sale a 1t hydraulic engine lift that folds up. Being the higher weight capacity it has a good reach for gearbox removal etc. Collection only North Yorkshire. £110 This is either the same, or a very similar, lift...

    A future top up of 100% :oops: no don't do that! The efficiency and protection offered by antifreeze starts to fall after 50% concentration.

    Eldon replied to the thread 5th gear “resistance”.
    A dragging brake would be my guess. Has someone over adjusted the handbrake?
  • E
    I'd go for the switch first and moisture in the bulbholders second. Make sure you check the wiring for chafing against anything else i.e.brake pedal, steering, etc.

    It's easier just pulling the engine out.

    I'm sure I have the timing pin tool, along with a load of other special tools that I no longer need which I'll probably offer up for sale, once allowed :rolleyes:
