also bought my series offof the 'bay. even rote a thred on here sayin is this a pile o crap - evryone sed yes it is it's shagged. I ignored em all (mwahaha) and bought it anyway. guess wat - its shagged. needed a LOT of welding abut not much mechanicals, burns a lot of oil and is really worn...

its a normal diso, that bloke is either really floaty or has really long legs :D

^^^ WHS. Most (all multi speed) heaters have em in somewhere, must admit to being confused as to wat it was when i first saw one, thort it was some kind of weird pre-heater. it's not though.

why's he pushing it further in in the middle pic? silly man. :p:D:p

aint tried anyfink yet, am waitin on a new thermostat cos thisns stuk open. now its REALLY cold :( maybe I should invest in some kinky wellies or waterproof rubber underwear. everyone else seems to have these things and be warm.

mine are OK so far, had it up to axles in snow last weekend and it didn't stop still accelerates as 'fast' as normal on frozen slushy icesnow

what counts as stuck? i got out again after being up to axles in snow on top of muddy stuff. didn't need a push tho :) it looked stuck and was sitting there with all the wheels going round.... it did come out again :)

shirley iffits bent then its a different length than what it should be? check tracking - if it's ok then leave it....

i've gotta rad blind - the air temp coming out the existing heater isn't boiling, but warm enuf think i have a classic mini heater somewhere - will look into it (if i put it in front of the series one, i'll rob the heat off the passenger :D) maybe some kind of tap thing so i can restrict flow...

Hi All Feet are frozen while charging about in the snow. some bugger designed the 2A with the heater only for the passenger. is this a fixable thing - thought about another heater matrix in the same heater line somewhere in MY footwell - i've got some matrixes that might fit + couple of...

got mine on a switch. lamp is on a old jump lead clip and a bit of that boingy spiral cable so i can use it as an inspection lamp as well. tis wired to me interior lamp too so i can tell if its still on :)

can i sneak a little question in here? why? have you been stuck/unable to get anywhere/laffed at because of poor off road performance? if not, seems a slightly odd excersise. If you want to do it then that's a good enough reason too tho. bigger tyres help on and off road, i'm running 7.5 x...

I put some in my well nacked ford gearbox. hasn't helped at all, but then it is very ruined, gear teeth are worn rather than bearings. some people say it stops the synchro from working - it doesn't - and wouldn't matter anyway in a transfer box. I put half a tube of molyslip in the ford box -...

Yup, I have slight mayo in filler tube - not had rocker cover off but breather seems to breathe OK. no oil in coolant or even any coolant loss :) mine used to pop on overrun and idle before i fitted the SU (was a weber that cut out). my money may be on worn piston rings in that one bore...

I've fixed it with a big SU :) from a 8V K series rover metro, bit of building an adaptor plate and job's a goodun. needle looks about right too :)

fitted a SU to mine. Runs a helluva lot better now. no more cutting out at junctions for me :)

definitely worth a try with V8jon's method - doesn't half suck hard though! also check the baseplates aren't bendy as bannanas - if there is a leak, its on the overrun when it'll be the most obvious

another one! mine still does it :( even after having it suck my hand off check fer air leaks and things as well. mine's worse now it's cold and/or wet.... spent the weekend making an adaptor for a nice big SU. will see if that fixes it :)

mine hit the top of the rear arches as well, in fact in my pic it was sitting on the arches and the bumpstop :)

suckit and see. dunno wat the manual sez mine r at 40 all round (88") on same size tyres 50 if u want to slide everywhere 12 if its really squashy and all inbetween go up if u want more MPG down if you want to go even slower oh and welcome to LZ, but you might want to :search: as well :)
