WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!

[dodge]

oh almost forgot, took out rotten and split fuel line (that mot examiner didnt spot!!!) and replaced in with about 800mm of flexi fuel hose!!!!

[Road Hog]

Mine just jumped in it & drove around to Big Red Fronty`s where we drained his fuel tank & flushed fuel system of just on 40 litres of Tesco`s best quality diesel which is totally non combustable it is weird it looks like white diesel but is odourless runs a treat now it has new filter & some Morrisons fuel in

[Drift]

Have you contacted Tescos about it

[Road Hog]

Bit awkward to prove as it was a pay at the pump jobbie & he didn`t get receipt

[dodge]

i remember a while back at a local tescos they put diesel in and unleaded underground tank or the other way round, either way it fubar'd a fair few cars and they had to pay HUGE fines. see if anyone else has had problems??????

Bit awkward to prove as it was a pay at the pump jobbie & he didn`t get receipt

still go back as pay at pump is covered by cctv did he pay with card or cash at pump

[Road Hog]

CCTV ........ good point there John,will nip round his this evening & have a chat about this,think it was a card payment will ask him

[Krusher]

Is it not card payment only at the pumps??

if card payment they will have records so will bank

[Krusher]

Checked levels, topped up oil and washer bottle.....

[dodge]

bled brakes, no leaks still a little spongy but stops!!!, refitted headlights after fitting the mega expensive vauxhall clips, hopefully now these will point towards the ground instead of looking for ufo's. time to book it in for a retest now, hopefully it will pass otherwise it will cost me for a full test next time

then all being good, tax it, go get the bigger wheel/tyres, then pick up the LWB rear lights and hey presto look for a pay & play site to get REALLY muddy!!!!

then take it to the polish guys on the car park for a £3 car wash - with free wheel wax!!"!"!

[Road Hog]

Both upper BJ`s
Both outer CV gaiters
Rear brake pads
Air filter
Oil filter
Oil
ARB "D" bushes must stop doing maintenance

EDT ... All 4 shocks are buggered as well

[Drift]

you did normal maintenance

[Road Hog]

Normal for me bud,I topped up the washer fluid (halfway),what you need to remember is that as things get worn they get lighter,thus improving the power to weight ratio

[drinksoptional]

i managed to completely drain my brand new battery of charge and my passenger side front tyre of air. Had to jump start twice as i started it then turned it off like a pratt, while i used a foot pump on the tyre, Took it to the local tyre repiar guy as he cheap and cheerful £5 job done

[Road Hog]

Oooohhhhhhhh forgot the little baby battery,was just a little bit of a tight fit ........

[Drift]

[rancidrich]

Fired Tessie up today and let her run up to temp, found a water leak and oil leak,
Fixed water leak( didnt do a hose clip up tight enough on the thermostat housing ) as for the oil leak my new sump gasket has a small leak coming from the front , tightened up sump bolts while the engine was warm and will keep an eye on it.
Sorted out the lights that wern't working (number plate lights and side repeaters).
Just the rear suspension bushes to go (first thing tomorrow come rain or shine) and she is ready for her test on Friday.
Might even push the boat out and give her a clean
