    Wine, Women and Song....but mostly Stuff
  1. the fore/aft thingy sounds like what i need to adjust. just need to shorten its throw a tad. Sounds typical that it be a yaris pain. will try investigation the morra, yay more lying in the snow and wetness!! woop woop
  2. Engaging low box has ceased to happen on Lumpy, Is there anything i can adjust in the linkage? it used to spit it out of gear if you didnt give it some grunt into gear but would always engage, now after sitting up for a few weeks waiting on Wazzocks to supply a starter motor it wont select low box? lever feels like its in with that usual clunky thing it does but there is no drive. Have tried slecting forma stand still, while rolling with difflock in and out but no, it gave drive for a split second last night then popped out again<_< could something have frozen while it was sat up? nothing looks out of place?
  3. Not sure if LR have possibly the same issues as i have found on some Zuks in the past that the small amount of wiggle on the bolts can lead to that problem. simply slackening of bolts and wiggling it seems to get it to line up properly.
  4. mmm seems it is the season! while waiting at the airport the other day (engine running) i noticed a whiff of leccy burning odour, looked around couldnt find much then gave up on it being mine, how foolish it is a landy after all! later tried to restart and only got a clunk of solenoid. Removed the starter today and found a most pleasant surprise am not sure but i think it may need a bit of contact cleaner and a bit gaffer and it should be good to go? First question now is, is there any starters to be avoided or any that are bestest, this car lives a hard life between here at the top of the Alps just now and Russia in summer. Reliability is needed
  5. cheers guys will set about it the morra in daylight, been up an down the mountain again today and no slippage?? but was driving super cautious now. i really hope its something simple!! dont fancy ripping it to bits in minus a plenty! luckily i do havea spare friction plate.
  6. I just ought in Finland a Defa heater, its mains run but has loadsa heat output and is small enough to fit in a footwell, if you sort the power supply side of things i would say its your best bet in heat for size stakes, although mine is 1700w they do come in several sizes
  7. OK my Disco has started slipping clutch symptoms now in third and fourth, i have just arrived in the french alps and will be doing a little bit of up and down driving. New clutch was fitted in June. As some will know I be new bod to this LR field. My Disco was broken into and few bits robbed including my Haynes book of lies Do you think it will help to adjust the clutch? action has been a little high on the pedal according to some of my LR minded friends. I have just driven from Finland down to here but was mostly easy motorway driving but never noticed anything on route even when giving it what beans it has to pass things. Any help or advice greatly appreciated, also any tips for what to do with the old girl for all this alpine driving and conditions.
  8. The cables are connected oh there be my coat
  9. Hey Jesus is blue!!! now he is banned??
  10. never thought i would see that in here
  11. i think it is written somewhere "let he who is without sin, cast the first stone" I think that to judge this man or his pain on an open forum is less than in good taste, even by my somewhat lowly standards. None of us can ever know what happened that day. I would say it better to let this man and his family move on from the incident rather than have them read or hear anymore about it and peoples judgements online.
  12. thats a travesty!! i mean all that horse power and you get an automatic gearbox fitted
  13. na the finish was much better quality! and besides, "you gotta have a friend in Jesus"
