boldy

What a good turnout , good to see some new faces as well as the old ones :x: See you all at the next :duffer: :duffer:

We need a drooling smiley :bow: :bow: :bow:

Didn,t have many problems with the accent , the missisus,s dad,s from Glasgow now he is hard to understand :smash: . Got to say Edinburgh is a great place and everyone were very friendly , i,d like to go again but only when it,s WARMER . How the Scotts wear kilts in that weather i,ll never know :bow: :bow:

I fitted a second hand one in mine about 2 years ago , it was never that good afterwards , when we had the engine out i decided to try and flush it through so connected a hose pipe to one of the pipes , not much water flowed through it , i thought the water valve on the side of the matrix might be nearly closed even though i,d set the climate control to 40 dgrees before disconnecting the battery ( ensuring the valve would be fully open ). Put the hose to the other pipe and at first same again happened but then a load of crappy brown sludge flushed out and the water flowed properly , i,ve now got a lovely warm heater :dance: :dance: This can be done with the engine in , just need to pull both matrix rubber feed pipes off the back of the engine , and cobble something together to connect a hose to these pipes . HTH

and not a single zed spotted :smash: :smash: But lots of men in skirts :shock: :shock: :shock: :x:

Yeah wots the guy,s rate £1 an hour :shock: :shock:

Pop your bonnet , there should be a unit bolted to the n/s strut top with a cable going to the throttle linkage meaning you should have two cables all together ( throttle and cruise ) HTH

Don,t want to hijack ya thread but.... AYUP SEAN ME OLD MUCKER , HOWS IT GOING ? :D :D

Took this a couple of years ago at JAE :dance:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Cheat !!

The first one i did wasn,t too bad to do , i,m in the process of doing the one i took off my own car , these are obviously sand cast hence the finish on them but i think the one off mine must have been cast in gravel !! it,s so fooking coarse :headvswal :headvswal I use a D.A sander to sand the alloy smooth , starting with 80 grit to remove the casting finish then use 180 grit and finally 320 grit and polish up from there . It,s very awkward and time consuming getting down the sides of the pipes :smash: I use a belt sander to remove the casting flashes then sand it as best i can with a D.A but alot of areas have to be done by hand !! Polishing kits are available from Frost Automotive. Have fun take your time and be prepared to loose some skin :cry: but it,s worth it in the end :dance:

The silicon type gasket sealer works perfect :dance:

That,s one way of stacking ya surfboards :xxx:

It,s Dagenam leather :x: :x: Got to admit , i,ve always drooled over the Granada Coupe , thought it was a great looking car :dance:

Same here :confused: :confused: :confused:

You beat me to it , was just about to say the same . The trim they use is just on a roll ,only one little niggle is you would have a joint line on the rear window trim but the fronts not a problem :dance:

Taking the missus up there on wednesday for three days , it,s her birthday :duffer: :duffer: Any reccomendations of places to visit . We,re stopping right in the heart of Edinburgh on Princess Street , really looking forward to it :dance:

Dave , you still with us ? Dave ...Dave...

Ooh , you wait till i see yours missus :slap: :slap: :slap: Now what was it i wanted doing on my car next :x: :D :D

If the connector is knackered go to the scrappy,s and cut an injector connector off a Vauxhall ( they,re yellow ) just file the lug off the sender unit ( nissan one is offset , vauxhall is central ) and you,ve got a nice clip with finger releases on it and a proper moisture shield in it , works a treat . :dance:

That,s just the photo,s bud , they inspected them on the monday and i picked them up on the wednesday :shock: :shock: Took me by suprise as well :dance: :dance:

Spot on mate , it would be a nightmare of a job with the engine in .

What i meant was we had the engine out and fitted the new ones . I,d bought a pair of a forum member, had those re-conned so my car wasn.t off the road , ive now got my old ones spare if anybodys looking to do the same , they obviously need re-conning but it,s just the oil seals which have gone , there,s no shaft play on them and the blades look in very good condition , but this will need confirming once stripped by a specialist . I,m after £80 delivered for the pair , most of that would be postage as they,re very heavy . Cheers Allan

Steady now Steve , you know your only used to Landrover power :tongue: :tongue: :D

Got to say , that,s a sweeet looking zed , well done bud you must be chuffed to bits :dance: :dance: :dance:
