I have just picked up a pair of very nice captains seats which have the adjustable height armrests. I was just looking at some pictures on the internet and noticed that there is another type of armrest which has an external bolt attaching it to the seat but seems to have no vertical position adjustm...

Capillary action should keep the pressure line full, a leak would be obvious! Is your block earthing sound? Those remote switches need their own earth iirc so it might be an instrumentation earth loop/return problem. The oil line doesn't need to be full. It can be full of air. The pressure will be ...

The flange is so far out that if I try that, the other end would be about 4 inches low. The flange is not just a bit out of line, it's just in completely the wrong position!

Another view!

I am replacing a rusted through pipe on my engine. Part 24 in the picture. I have one from JK but the flange that bolts on to the water pump is so out of position that it is never going to fit. Are there any better ones available? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20260116/0a29e36d4a476c4ec04e643d79d...

The speedo was £30 odd from Amazon and it is fitted in a test housing at the moment which is why the front clear plastic cover is missing. I did get it off this housing but it wasn't pretty!!

So I eventually gave up trying to remove the cluster screen to fit a GPS speedo. Instead I have 3d printed a mounting block to fit it from the back. Still work in progress but looking good so far! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20260109/b60bec9fd10a31a85d8954354440b097.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk...

Is the Bear Lock just a push in pin that interferes with the movement of the gear lever? I just looked at the website and they look interesting but seem to be mounted predominantly into the plastic trim surround. Is there more to it that meets the eye? I fitted a hidden isolator switch to my van. Th...

LUCAS Starter 402440671 | Halfords UK

I think I might go for a Lucas Remanufactured unit. They are made in Germany and remanufactured to exact brand new standards and also have a three year warranty!

The high torque one looks good. The other suppliers just supply the Chinese ones which are usually very short lived!!

I have a T25 1.9DG which I have had for ten years. During that time I have had 3 starter motors. They usually seem to last about two years and then just start misbehaving. My current one has just started doing exactly that. Does anyone know where I can buy a good quality starter motor which doesn't ...

I have a twin pod mount for gauges on the dash and it had a 2" rev counter but as I now have a proper one I have removed it and so I have a hole to fill. I was going to put a clock there but they seem really expensive so the oil pressure gauge is a cheap option!!  I am used to very low oil pres...

That is my next move. I just removed the two wires from the multi plug at the instrument cluster end which come from the two oil pressure switches and the light now does not come on when the engine is started so i can only assume it is one of the wires breaking down somewhere under the van and allow...

Really scratching my head now! I have disconnected both oil pressure switches and replaced the buzzer of doom circuit board with a replacement and still the oil light insists on dimly glowing when the engine is running. It is completely out as you would expect when the engine is running.  So I have ...

SHC wiring loom kit and rev counter arrived to day and it is fitted and is brilliant. I still have one issue though. When I start my engine the oil light doesn't quite go out but glows very dimly. It did this before I fitted the kit so I know it isn't that. There seems to be  some volts getting to i...
