I've revived this one as it is very important, and different juresdictions have different rules. Obviously, one should check thier insurer's rules, as compliance will cover any eventual financial outcome as ballanced by the courts. Afterall, children are replaceable. I'm working on the "airbag suit". It's just as it sounds, a suit made of CO2 charged airbags that can be dawned in the manner of a snowsuit, or full motorbike leathers. It would seem the biggest techknowlogicle hurdles are presently related to trigger sensativity/body part mass, and to the actual coordination of bag deployment about the human body during various impact scenerios. Granted, it's very embarrassing to be systematicly bounced around an enclosed public space because you're clumbsy and stubbed your toe, especially if you suffur 'life changing' soft-tissue or major musculo-skelitile injuries. LOL! It may yet prove that complex "alien-developed fragmented gravitaional field" technowledgy is more practicle. Unfortunately, the MoT denies knowledge of such techknowlegy and an MoT spokesman said "What, are you some kind of flake?".

No, no noticable vibes in the sticks either.

Theories: My gearbox leaks. It just does. The tickety noise is a propshaft UJ. Please! 1st, 2nd, are harder to engage now because the ATF is liquid crud. Cluch fluid is low and /or pushrod maladjusted. Now I just need a couple of days off without rain!

Wow you guys are having fun! I intend to one day complete a 3.9 efi in an MGB GT. I've had the plenum chamber and intake manifold thing machined down to fit it under the stock bonnet. A masaged cam and high compression could see 250HP out of it. That B would buzz!! It will be mated to a T5 transmission out of a Camaro via an antique Buick bellhousing. I wish 3.9s were so available on this side of the pond! This engine will be expensive!

Yo, '87 110 ex MoD FFR. Thanks Dixon! "'Rock Island Rovers" for trucks on the far, far left side of Canada.

Anglo-Frenchman baby, It's all relative. A quick quesionair is a s follows.... A: Dose your daily commuter vehicle consume fossil fules? B: Do you commute alone? C: How many times a week do you stop at that gas station to buy crud like coffee and carp on your card? If you're driving an internal combustion engine, it's a gussler, mate! It's getting hard to see in here! "But when there's a 5.5 litter integrated turbo diesel engine, there's nothing that can stand in your way!". I live in Canada too. I live on Earth too. 3.875L? It remains to be seen. Buy a bike!

If I adjust my monitor correctly, It's just like mine, dark green.

Hi people! Land Newb here, I had the LT77/LT230 combo in my '87 110 FFR replaced with used boxes from a similar truck by a rusty, but slightly experienced proffessional mechanic, because of a bearing failure in the old 230. It's been a bout 5 weeks and all seemed fine commuting <60mph around town on pavement and a brief jaunt on the beach in difflock Lo. I completed a 50-70MPH 8 hour drive one day on the highway without problems. The new (old) boxes shifted smoothly and tightly and have a cross-drilled tcase input gear!. I thought I was home free... The second time I attempted the 8hr highway trip, the first 3.5hrs went smoothly (no stops .cept lights, 50-65MPH ave, brief slowing through towns, up and over a 6000' mountain at the end). After stopping at destination for 10 minutues, There was immediately a regular "tickety-tickety" in the trans area which quickly became loud enough at town speeds/stoplights to become troubling! The rythm seems linked to wheelspeed-- clutch depressed, same: 2nd, 3rd 4rth, 5th, same. The shifting had a become a little 'nochy'.I stopped at a 'convenience station and visuallised ATF drip drip.. drip....drip........dripping from the the transmission. Upon further inspection over days, I think it's coming from an appearent verticle case-join just fore of the rear drain plug area... There's oil all over the back of the truck. Also, I noticed some freeplay in the clutch pedal , like a low clutch hydro-fluid level right as I was leaving home to begin the second 8hr trip. I stayed the night in Victoria (the 'there' leg..$), and topped up the trans the next morning adding a 250ml bottle of "Lucas Trans-Fix" on advice. I drove over yonder mountain, stopped for 30 min an hour later, drove for 40 min, hade the trans level checcked, FULL?, Drove for an hour at 55mph ect... home. Now I've commuted 10 min a couple of times and its notchy esp 2nd-3rt-2nd, and its still weeping. Oh, and I saw two dosen deer, 3 raccoons, two elk, 8 sealions, 37 bald eagles, and a bigfoot! Spring is here....
