ive no experience of borg&beck but ive only heard good things. valeo on the other hand i do have a lot of experience with, all good. my last valeo clutch i fitted to a mr2. when i first fitted it it went on a standard engine and box and worked fine. i then binned the standard engine (too slow) and fitted a 3.0 liter v6 with more than double the bhp the clutch was rated for. i then proceeded to drive it like a cock doing burnouts with wide sticky tyres and donuts galore. it lasted til long after i sold the car, and as far as i know is still holding up fine a year later. cant fault valeo. edit ; just to note, other people have tried that conversion with other standard clutch's which slipped from the start...

yup its identical, but my motor has a round connector nnot a square one. im sure you could make a adaptor up with spade connctors for testing purpose. as i said its yours if you want it, if only to look at to see if its in the correct park position, ime if you have it ‘parked’ in the wrong place the ecu throws a wobbly and it wont do anything

motor looks the same. electrical connector is different though.

put up a pic of the motor. i have a borg warner shift motor here i used for testing. its not off a landrover but if its the same motor, its yours for postage...

sounds to me like the mechanism has seized. can you take the motor off and move it manually?

bumper dumper, top gear style

ive used insa turbo dakars in several different enviroments including rocky and sandy. they performed very well.

i had that same problem with a 3.5 kva generator. i found overriding the governor with a stick (and rev tits off it) whilst the compressor started and it would the run it fine.

i have a nationwide flexplus account which has breakdown cover with brittania. i had a wheelbearing faliure on my trailer on the m25. it was a big trailer and loaded with a car. it took several hours to even get a van to me, he then took the wheel off and we limped to the services. a hour or so later 2 recovery lorrys turned up, one to take the trailer and one for the car that was on it. the car made it home that evening the trailer took 2 weeks. not a perfect experience, but it was a difficult recovery as the trailer is right at the max length for recovery. the reason it took so long to get the trailer home was they where trying to find the parts to repair it so they could tow it to me instead of flatbeddimg it back. problem is the parts are hard to get.(infact i ordered them 3 weeks ago, still havent got them.) however, still a better experience than the rac, and it was their subcontractor that let them down, not brittania themselves, who where going spare trying to g et recovery to me(snow)

i know this may well be granny sucking eggs territory BUT! when locating compressor (if multi compressor system then the one that feeds the masks) make sure its air inlet is NOT in the same location in which you are spraying. i have seen that done, and the guy who though he had done everything right now has to have a oxygen supply permanently attached to live...

yes i used them, they lasted less than a hour, completely exploded in the straight ahead position taking my (ashcroft) halfshafts with them. wasnt best pleased.

yes, there are two types of 2k that i know of but the age those tins look it should be standard stuff https://www.jawel.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=74_92&products_id=2673&zenid=l440cos095biq0b51jksh7d9a3

cheap spray gun from screwfix and a compressor and off you go. you could roll it on but i personally cant stand the finish that gives.

ahem

if you want outrage and complete disbelif that wagos could ever be any good, take a look at any of the american electrician facebook groups... "oh wagos, thats a complete hack, i would never use them, they just start fires!". they all use wirenuts over there, you know the things that the uk banned 40 years ago....

the leaver type wags are designed for stranded wire, so thats not a issue. id be more worried about vibration causing a poor connection over time...

nahh lob a torquey cam in it and squirt it you cant lose

nah its gotta be a TVR 5.0

leds seem to be the best option

just had a look about i paid £39 but they seems to have gotten hard to find and expensive...

when i had my trayback disc i used 2 of these https://www.bhl.co.uk/polco-ebsc0006-smart-battery-charger-6-amp.html for the two winch batterys. they are Very good imho, not too smart for their own good but smart enoughh to not cook a battery. i got them from tesco direct myself but they appear to no longer be avaliable.

just getting started here

getting quite white here.

mine was supplied with a eurotorch.

depending on thicknesses of metal your welding then id recommend the mig i use sealey supermig180 great for everything except the really thin stuff, it doesnt really have enough low down current control.
