    Weird fuel starvation issue. Electrical or mechanical?..

    I had something slightly similar a few years back, the rubber diaphragm in the top of the fuel filter housing had perished and started letting air in. Your symptoms sound the same, cutting out going downhill, and not starting with a warm engine. Installed a whole new fuel filter housing and it's...

    1KZ-TE non start problem

    Is it auto or manual box? If manual does it start with a bump start? Any clicking noises from the starter before this?

    Clutch slipping, how long do they last?

    Clutch was replaced on my Cruiser approx 90,000 miles ago. It does some trailer work, probably at most 10% of the 90k miles was with a trailer. I am guilty of slipping it when using reverse. Noticed recently when accelerating hard in 4th gear it's slipping a bit. Just wondering what's the normal...

    What MPG do you get out of your 90?

    Check the brakes, especially the hand brake isn't stuck on.

    Rear axle turret / mount broken off / rusted - options? See pics.

    MC are Milners shipping to Ireland or are you using a NI address? Last few bits I needed for mine I got from North South 4x4. How are your sill patches looking?

    Prado & Bond?

    Best of luck Bob. Have to admit I enjoyed seeing a few land rovers getting written off.

    Decided I Will Sell After All

    Been following your trials and tribulations over the last few weeks. I think it was the sump plug that might have been the final nail in the coffin. GLWS and hopefully you'll find a good one in the future. Been welding, wire brushing and painting my chassis so have an idea what you went through...

    Thickness of metal required for cill repair patches?

    I thought it was just the chassis welds that had to be done before the test, thanks for the headsup about the cills. Time for some upside down welding practice:obscene-drinkingfa:. Pic below is chassis weld before paint

    100 series headlamps gremlin

    A tin tent LOL, Jeremy would love that. What I don't understand is why only the headlights come on? Hopefully someone else knows more than we do.

    100 series headlamps gremlin

    I have the same problem, intermittently, usually after it rains. I think the fault in mine is where the trailer socket wires were joined into the main loom. I think moisture gets in there causing a short. When it happens I open the fuse cover and just take the headlight (10 amp) fuses out when I...

    Thickness of metal required for cill repair patches?

    Thanks for getting back to me. I was under my '97 cruiser today, cleaning the chassis with a wire brush. Just got the chassis welded and found a hole in the cill on the driver's side:openmouth:. How strict are DOE on welding the cill, can a weld be painted over before the test?
