Re: Which Pipe?

I'd be tempted to get it tig welded. Try western fabrications at priorswood or somewhere similar

Re: Slight concern

So at the moment I'm trying to work out whether a leak at the weekend was from the heater matrix hose connection or the matrix itself. I stripped out the interior panel last night to reveal the whole rear heater unit and noticed the plastic tops are clipped on to the body below. Do you think I can g...

Re: Waeco MS 50 Cruise Control - Fitting

Have you set the cable position correctly? Because I set mine so it doesn't over pull and strain the blue servo assy. there is a slight delay in cruise taking over when you press set.

Re: Waeco MS 50 Cruise Control - Fitting

Well, fitted CC Saturday morning, tested in the afternoon with no issues, so great notes and tips from here! Went into town this morning, came back to find the pipe work serving rear heater matrix spewing water. So looks like I'll be busy getting to that next week.

Re: rear differential issues

No experience of bongo axles (yet) but several land rover and Salisbury axles in days gone. Studying Simons images I would say, Pull both half shafts out from the wheel side, then unscrew ring of bolts securing front part (diff assy.) from rear axle casing. Should be enough room to pull diff complet...

Re: Waeco MS 50 Cruise Control - Fitting

I've been reading this thread with interest since I have a kit to collect from the post office tomorrow. It's a toss up between fitting that or a new front crossmember on Saturday! I'm guessing the panel with the operating buttons in purely contains switches and no other components, so intergrating ...

Re: Radiator riddle?

Radiator pressure cap has 1.1bar on it along with white sticker and rad use only on. Appears the rad is of brass construction.
If I block the overflow pipe I do have a plain rad cap that would then fit it.

Radiator riddle?

I was under the impression that the reason the radiator caps were different colours was because one was a pressure cap (yellow expansion tank) and one was a standard cap (white radiator only marked). However my radiator has a steel overflow pipe on the neck and has a white "radiator only" ...

Re: anyone recommend a lights on warning buzzer?

I may be wrong, but ours has one as standard? I believe there is a blue buzzer box behind the panel to the side of accelerator pedal.
I'm sure someone will put us straight soon enough.

Re: Heater resistor location

Hi there, I managed to repair my fan motor resistor pack at home this weekend, with replacement components from eBay and a soldering iron. Total cost less than a tenner! Dismantle resistor pack, de-solder three legged transitor, google part number, buy on eBay, re solder, assemble and test. Very ple...
