    What is an acceptable level of oil consumption?

    Ive heard other manufacturers also state up to 1k per litre. I think its their get out clause for high oil consumption!

    is 225k miles too high?

    Condition and how well its been cared for is more important than milage. Check the chassis and bulkhead thoroughly for rust. The mechanicals are cheap enough

    Hi...just bought

    FL2's are said to be pretty good on reliability and have few common faults. Looks like a nice motor, enjoy!

    Had some of mine for 15 years. Been hit with hammers, hung off with scaffold poles and generally abused. Only thing i broke was a 1/4 to 3/8 adaptor

    Winter Chills

    Fitted a webasto diesel fueled heater to a camper, hardest part was dropping the fuel tank to get the feed tube in. Otherwise pretty straight forward

    Weird problem with stereo

    Low voltage at the stereo caused by bad connections maybe? Stupid auto volume control? An irritating ghost?

    Air compressor noise

    If it doesn't shut off you might have a leak causing the compressor to run because it can't reach pressure

    Track rod end nut

    Get some new nyloc nuts (i would have thought be pretty easy to get hold of through a local fastener supplier) unless you can drill a hole to put a pin through?

    What size and makes of mig welder

    Avoid the bottom of the range gasless migs. Ok in an emergency but wish I'd spent more on a better suited set up

    First offroad attempt

    Compared to its competitors it is good off road. Compared to off roaders it has its merits and drawbacks. If you want an offroader buy a defender.

    New Chassis wiring loom, on top or inside ?

    If you can't get to it, you can't repair or inspect it. Clipped to the chassis in wrapped trunking would be my choice.

    D3 vs L322 vs FL2-choices!

    1k over 5 years? My ford puma cost me that in 2 years with one thing or another..... admittedly a lot of it welding, and new belts and a waterpump. Might keep the micra, low mileage but battered, and buy a cheaper rr as a pride and joy toy
