New battery and a 4 new glow plugs...starts lov-erly now :D

Also fixed a rather worrying fuel leak coming from the rubber cap on the top of the front injector which was spraying diesel all down the side of the block and over the top of the filter :shock:

I thought I would get my manual hubs fitted today (cheers Colley), went out got the N/S off and the new one on. Then all of a sudden
it went really dark so now I have one manual hub and one auto. Hopefully I will have a short day at work tomoz and I can do the other side. :D :D

Also got my boy Sam out to earn some pocket money by cleaning and vacuuming all the mud and leaves out from the picnic last week......

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY! by plumjam on Tue Feb 22, 2011 5:29 pm
done a bit today!!
removed the middle sump gaurd and cleaned off and given a couple of coats of fresh paint,
been to get some new bolts to replace them silly torx head things i removed,
got six galved bolts with 17mm heads for £2.50 thought that was good,
changed the air filter & oil filter and oil while waiting for paint to dry,
got to say the oil filter on the 2.8 is a pain to get at for removal :evil: :evil: :evil:
still all done with fresh oil and a nice painted sump gaurd re-fitted...
got to find another job to do now :(
if its not broke just let me fix it for ya!!!

Removed the Intake manifold which revealed badly cracked gaskets. :evil: Obviously the reason for some eratic idleing and over revving through all gears. So now needing to sort some replacements asap. After that decided to get a little dirty and wire brush the chassis and suspension, gave it a good coat of KURUST and sprayed it with Hammerite. So starting to look like new underneath :D

Found my rear tyre almost flat, so I examined it and found a screw wedged between the lugs. Pulled it out, let air out and put in a piece of tyresealer rubbercoated string. Took me 20 minutes including cleaning up. Nice :-)
