tool recomendations
Stanley stuff is great and is the largest tool maker in the world,they own Mac tools too which have the market share in the USA,the ratchets are fine tooth which makes them stronger and easy to use in tight spaces.Get 3/8 as half inch is overkill.I rarely use half inch on most truck jobs in my day job.

compression test...
Stem seals dont usually cause smoking all the time,smoke at idle and between gear changes.Sounds a deeper issue if im honest bud.

Members Help
My son owns a Tamiya Blackfoot rc car,on Sunday he was playing with it in the garden,anyway he brought it in downhearted as the front suspension had collapsed.A suspension screw had come adrift ! remembering that Mr Derby on here owned a model shop,quick text to him and he knew exactly what i was after,Today a parts bag arrived with several screws and lots of other useful bits and pieces for his car and he wouldnt take a penny.Mark thank you once again my 7 year old is made up and so am i :clap: Another example of members help on here when lately it seems negative transactions have shadowed a lot of good deeds.

Is the gearstick poled?
I cant see how Mark,you must have hands like a baby,remember the pivot is underneath the support plate,and one of the stick bolts is underneath also.

FMIC - water temps?
Ive had an fmic for years now,done several dyno runs where air flow can be lacking,had it dyno tuned in summer and the temp stays constant,i could leave it idling for hours with no issues.

What fuel do you use
Tesco super is good stuff,in tests it gave the most consistant results and kept its octane rating longer than V Power.

when you think things are going good !
I always liked TD years ago but of late the service they give is shocking,the left hand is literally unawhere of the existance of the right there not what its doing,the guys that answer the phone sound about ten years old and "have to just go and check" anything you ask constantly,Place is a Monkey Temple and to be avoided.They made a right balls up of Jaffas turbo replacement,housings clocked wrong,the actuators they fitted were inferior after they refused to reuse the existing ones.Not a place id use now.

SuperHICAS: Repair or Replace
a very good point mate and usually its the inners but the tester has failed the outers,seen this several times on front tie rods on steering racks and its play was blamed on the outer balljoint.

Starting to get a little excited now!!!
Just a quick mention that the tensioner plunger is out way more than specified.Thats a huge gap,it should be around 3-5 mm.It needs retensioning.

Nissan Terrano Help!!
If its a similar set up to the Navara a pivot arm from the cable seizes on the back of the brake drum,salt water will kill that quick,get someone to work the handbrake and look underneath.
