Not happened to me ... yet!
Has anyone ever had the one way valve in their ABS pump fail?
Since i got my P38, when the ABS pump is not running it would make a very soft rythmic ticking. So making an edjucated guess i thought it was the one way valve that was leaking and then allowing pressure from the resevior to force the pump to rotate in reverse. The pump would run and then shutdown and immediately start its ticking noise and probably about 3min later it would run again (without the brakes being used at all).
So i got hold of a pump with a failed motor along with a preassure switch for quite cheap. So i built my motor over into the new pump and installed it last night. Im quite happy to say my guess was correct, the issue was the one way valve as the new pump doesnt make the ticking noise and i left it for about an hour without the pump running again after first building pressure.
The old "land-rover quality after market parts" malarkeyPre MOT checks, found both front drive shaft seals are leaking, new not so long ago when I did the swivels etc, wish I had left the originals in place, new stuff doesn't seem to last long.![]()
Apparently, almost all the stuff I ordered beforw and during our summer vacation, ehich is ending tomorrow unfortunately, has been delivered. My catsitting dad was so kind to also take delivery for that. He just told me that it looks like christmas with all the parcels. I have a bad feeling about my wifes reaction when we come home... It was quite a lot of stuff, warning lights, tools, bolts and fasteners, an exhaust, some hoses, bits for the fuel system, a book or two...
The tank guard and diffs aren't even delivered yet!![]()
Or tell her big packages are cheaper, it's the small items that cost a fortuneTell her most of it is packaging to protect it.
Only works until the big parcels reveal small items! I did tell her that I can use the parts I don't need when I'm finally done. Which actually is the plan, so if someone needs a RRC steering column, let me know!Or tell her big packages are cheaper, it's the small items that cost a fortune![]()
