I have been looking at jacks and axle stands and what sort of weight should I go for? Would a 3 tonne trolley jack and 3 tonne axle stands be strong enough? Thanks

Thanks again guys, Paddocks were quite cheap so I think I will go for them as my local car spares shop is a bloody rip of merchant. The only reason I posted on that difflock thread was because it was right at the top and it was a very good explantion and I don't normally check the dates on...

That was the best explanation of how diff lock works that I have heard Chris, Thanks I feel all enlightened now.

Just checked paddocks I hadn't even thought about checking them and it is £16.27 so a bit cheaper. Thanks Again MHM

I am talking crap it was britpart that I couldn't find a catalouge my mistake sorry

Like a hozelock pressure sprayer? What sort of jack do you use? What is paddocks website when I tried to have a look I couldn't find a catalogue? Thanks MHM

Hi all, I have another couple of questions which may well get me laughed off this forum but as we all know I am as thick as **** anyway I can't make it much worse. Firstly is this a decent price for a service kit eBay.co.uk: LANDROVER 90/110 200TDI 1990-1994 SERVICE KIT **NEW** (item...

Do they still run the camel trophy? Whats the difference between that and the G4?

Yes I believe so, I am also fairly sure that all the flooding is down to me as well.

I don't mind taking the blame for it my wife blames me for everything anyway so I am used to it by now.

When I say I think its ****ed I am only saying that as the mechanic that was swapping my engine said I should try and get the turbo with it. I assumed it was ****ed but thinking about it does the turbo from 2.5 td fit a 200tdi. anyway here is a couple of photos of it i don't know if it will help...

Yeah it made sense but I think the turbo is ****ed. I will go out and see if I have it.

Sorry to bring this up again but would anyone like any of the parts that are already off the engine. The radiator appears to be in good condition, the altinator, the fan cowl thing and all the pipes. Again they are going for free as I just need to get them out my shed before the wife kills me.

Yeah but most of them have been due to the fact that I am as thick as mince. But it does show how patient everyone on here is to put up with me!! Thanks again guys

Thanks thats what I thought but I am wrong so often I thought I would check. As I have been advised to do an oil change any way I think I will try and do that. Thanks Mr Grunt for the help again.

This may sound really stupid but how do I drain off just a bit? Thanks

So I have to much oil then. So just the top . Can you drain just a little bit or will I need to drain the whole lot? Would this make the light come on? Thanks

That must make me a real man then :D I would go for the chassis change even though I wouldn't know how much work is involved. :o

I just checked the oil level and the engine is cold and this time the dipstick was completly coated and it was right up to the top of the hi mark just under the R of the DANGER marking. I assume this it right. Thanks Adz

Yeah I have keep an eye on it all the time and it is fine. Although I would like to know when I take the dipstick out there is just a thin line up the middle of the dipstick where as the dipsticks on most cars just get completely coated in oil, is this right or should mine be copletly cated as...
