    The plastic stuff can be blasted if its burned first... Mike

    Have you got RAC membership

    Just put the v8 into the 130, much simpler, if you're desperate for a more involved project then buy a big yank v8 and box and fit that! Mike

    remove a hinge to bulkhead and a hinge to door bolt and measure the length, they are as Les said M8x1.25, save yourself some money and pop into your local fastners place, always worth buying a new set of captive nuts for the bulkhead, they are really cheap and there will be at least one that you won't take alive!

    Mike (mmgemini) has a fantastic tip of screwing ply to the bottom of the battery box cover, thereby making a spreader plate without taking up any space... Mike

    May I also humbly suggest that if ordering from paddocks you specify OEM seals, otherwise they will arrive in a blue box Mike

    stainless pistons are more expensive but worth it in the long run IMVHO, wot he said about seals^^^^ Mike

    I got mine for my bike, it happily does all the land rover batteries I have tried, just takes from overnight or up to a week depending on how flat it is, depends how much of a rush you're in! Mike

    Hi Invest in an optimate and leave it pluged in for a week or two, if its salvagable then the optimate will rescue it! amazon was the cheapest supplier Mike

    I have a galv brownchurch one and its excellent, although chuffing heavy! Don't ever buy anything that has that stupid plastic rislan (sp?) coating, they rust though quickly then you cant paint them without taking all the plastic off! Mike

    What brand is it? Have you removed and refitted it? the arm has to be on the cam or it wont pump, undo the unions and put your thumb over the inlet and pump the manual lever, if it sucks its fine! Defective lift pump can cause starvation probs Mike

    There are off the shelf bolt on kits available to convert the front, but they are ££££s Mike

    Hi Welcome to the forum, would it not be quicker easier and better to put a 200/300 from a dead disco in? Mike

    mine are for jump starting, the 175A ones are fine for this as its only a short term use, If its for long term ie winching then maybe the 350A one would be better... Mike

    here you go http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/GET-CONNECTED-PLUGS Mike

    the anderson plugs are opposites of each other ie theres no male or female, 'getconnectedplugs' on ebay is by far the cheapest place to get them, just buy a set of jump leads and cut one end off... Mike

    Mine went like that, you can drive it temporarily but it will be down on power and probably a bit smoky, I can recommend the turbo centre for price and service! Mike

    one on the front bumper next to the winch and the other just inside the back door kind of like above ^^

    Any kit car place eg car builder solutions or rally design should have it on a roll, failing that electrical places eg maplins etc might have it Mike

    I was under the impression you were supposed to shim the front as required, I have always just put the same shims that came off back on, mine has different thicknesses each side aswell, Mike
  21. mike4444244
    As a very quick hijack whats the approx plated weight for a sankey? Mike
  22. mike4444244
    Avoid! Same guy conned my sister over buying a campervan, local police are very familiar with him but AFAIK nothings been done/can be done to stop him, except maybe with a large baseball bat... Mike

    Hi They have instructions on the website, however most people on here (me included) would advise you to put it in the bin and fit a new OEM paper one, your engine will thank you! Mike

    In my experience the Clarke ones are rubbish, one actually caught fire, my wickes cheapies are still going strong 3 years later, IIRC they were 2 for £15 and I bought the 9" one for £20, it got drowned when my shed leaked but still worked fine! Mike
  25. mike4444244
    I'll never sell mine, the amount of work its had its practically like trigger's broom Mike
