The pipe from the washer bottle runs behind the top of the dash inside the bulkhead

OK, thank you, do I have to take the dash off to get at it

Fraid so as far as I know, one pipe from the washer bottle goes through the bulkhead and then t's off to either side to the jets

Thank you

Dash top, about 10 screws... theres only one jet on yours sue, you might be able to get to it if you take the ashtray out.

And in english, I have put in some sockets (mainly so I can have a heater on in the winter so its de-iced in the morning)
Have put in a relay to immobilise it if its plugged in. (So I cant drive off with it plugged )

Im also going to make it so it swaps over to the inverter when the ignition is on, so the sockets have power all the time...

or, never mind...

I get the heater bit, shame you have to switch it off when you move though.

Never thought of the ashtray, great idea

You are just trying to put me off Dont worry I promise not to ask you to help put it all back together

Just realised I probably broke it when I changed those wiper blades yesterday

came very close to smashing it with the nearest hammer. now i'm on ebay trying to find a complete door lock for a disco 2 td5.

had a nice drive to Patley bridge then to brimham rocks...me dog's loved bouncing about in the back

Swapped this ...



to this ...



'cos of this ...



Should be a little more reliable now!

Brand new Britpart 200Tdi prop with flange, diff seal and spacer to remove the donut. Not sure it needs the spacer, haven't run it yet, but we'll soon know! Quite happy with the Britpart front prop I've had for four years now, so no reason to believe it'll be as ****apart as much stuff from them is!

Should the slide not be at the hand brake side?
Personally I would remove the spacer the clearance for the slide looks to little to me.

Yeah, I think you're right!! Doh!!

I Ran it on road as is with the spacer and got a little vibration when reversing so you might be right about the spacer too .. Must admit, I did think this myself .. I guess the spacer is for larger lifts than just 2" Gonna try it on a 3' high 'ramp' at school (Coal Hole from when we had coal-fired boilers) to get the suspension twisted up and see what it looks like.

It is Sue .. I bodged a few plates/large washers to try and crawl home when paddocks didn't deliver .. but had to call Green Flag/Mayday out with a replacement when it began to burn a little!! Was going toi remove the prop altogether and drive with centre difflock engaged but didn't want to chance breaking more as we had the caravan on too ..

a nice easy job changed rear shock bushes and washers to stop the annoying squeak that started yesterday.back down to the normal squeek's and bang's that i know and love all better now.just to get rid of all the dog art thats all over my passinger window..

yestrday orderd a fuel filter and now waitin for it to arrive
