[Silicone Sealant, or Grease? And drilling holes...]

I think you could start with a 6mm hole and enlarge in 2/3mm steps up to the required final size, make sure you have a decent centre punch to create a spot to start the drill in. I'd go with Silicone rather than grese although nothing is strictly necessary, have you considered self adhesive neoprene tape? its available in different widths and thickneses.....

[Need to ship a 110 Brownchurch roof rack..]

I don't think you will get a realistic price, either offer to deliver at cost, if you still have a 110, subject to a set maximum mileage, or collect only........

The finned thing is under the wing (drivers) side.

Paul

[Dim dip won't go off!]

Nipped into town with headlights on and en-route got a strange buzzing noise from Dash (?) area, stopped at the shops and noticed the headlights were still on Ignition off ….lights switch is off, no other lights lit, headlight on/off and dip-switch work as normal…..weird! Any suggestions?

1993 90 with dim dip

[Paint colour for Defender 300]

Thats what I meant, but the production records are accessed from the VIN.....

[Paint colour for Defender 300]

If its the original colour, your nearest main stealer should be able to tell you the colour from your vin number...

[V8 Fuel Lines?]

Im pretty sure they dont have a regulator, I had a recent fuel gauge issue, reading full most of the time and then threequarters occasionally.....turned out to be a duff gauge......

Where is the voltage sensitive relay for the HRW please? I don't have a HRW but would like to use the circuit and switch for a rear work light, can I change the relay for a normal one? What colour are the HRW wires behind the rear panel please?

Paul

[N/S headlight failed]

My NS headlight has failed completely, the sidelights are ok, earth issue dyou reckon? If so where do the headlights on a 90 earth? Its persisting down outside (again!) so I havent had chance to look.....

Paul

[Fuel gauge failed]

Thanks! Ill give it a go, Allparts sender, no diagram!

Paul

[Fuel gauge failed]

Does this wiring look correct?

The black goes to the engine bay earth point and has continuity when checked with a multimeter, the green has 10v.....are they on the correct terminals please?

Gauge reads constantly full......although I have changed the sender, but the tank is full......

Paul

[Electrical component under the wing]

Thats the joker!

Thanks!

Paul

[Electrical component under the wing]

I've been meaning to ask thi for ages.....

When I rebuilt my 90, I came across a small electrical component under the Offside (IIRC) wing, standard fitment attached to the loom, a small rectangular metal thing....like a small heatsink, what is it?

Cheers

Paul

[Fuel gauge failed]

I thought I had this sorted, but after 100 miles the gauge still reads full, damn it! Gauge goes to zero when ignition is off. It would be nice if it were a true reflection of fuel consumption!.....guess Ill have to have a root around tomorrow.....

Paul

[Fuel gauge failed]

Sorted! The specific earth had come off the terminal in the engine bay! Thanks to those who responded!

The joys of snagging a rebuild!

Paul

[Fuel gauge failed]

Thanks Ill give it a try tomorrow....

[Fuel gauge failed]

So, my total rebuild has been on the road a week and the fuel gauge has stopped working, its connected at both ends, sender and gauge. There are 2 wires on the sender, if I join them together should the gauge give a reading? Sender is Shi*tpart so i wouldn't be surprised if thats the culprit.....any suggestions?
