🤭😁 I have no idea when it comes to electrical.. I hate chashing wires, and it took me unpicking a shipload to trace it back to the fuse box.. I pissed the one of near the air horn and she fired...

Double fused! Whoops, missed that when I put in a new accessory fuse and relay box under the bonnet... I cleaned up all the single relays on the inner gaurd, and added another fuse to the hot wire for the air horn relay, down by the horn.. right next to the original inline fuse I fitted! Doh...

Howdy all, I fitted up an Air Horn years ago and it's been working fine untill last week :( I can here relay clicking so replaced the genuine one under the bonnet and its still not working "still clicking", checked fuses earths etc , nothing wrong there.. Air horn works when wired directly to...

I torqued up the cover bolts a touch more... we'll see I guess..

Cheers.. love to read about it... I'm going to do box and clutch too.. I think she's worth it eh I've put a shiteload of time and cash into it, so may as well do it..

Mine are still going strong.. and no complaints :)

In there grrrrr it's a huge job too... May as well "pull the pin" and rebuild....

Dangit dangit daaaaangit! I thought I had it but, nooooo! Have we all heard about the "cover plate to block" coolant leak? .. seems to be aaaaanother zd issue.. it looks like I've hit the deciding factor regarding a motor build and gearbox :( The stinking thing- I've tried loving this nav but...

Bump..

Aaaand nothing goes to plan on the Navs eh I had one of the 2 nuts "round off" on me grrr... I had juuuust enough space to get a hacksaw blade in there to cut some of the meat off the nut, then i used the cold chisel and hammer to free it.. dang lucky huh After that moment,, there was no way I...

I'll give the silicone a good 24hrs "or more" to set before adding coolant. This ones had about 48hrs to set before I added the clamp.. Weather it's the right thing to do I have no idea, sounded good "in my mind" at the time.. we'll see i guess ;)

These cleaned up better than I thought they would.. 2 treatments of rust converter.. I'll add "just a very lite smear" of silicone to each to help them seat..

A piece of gold turned up today ! Part number for anyone in need :)

Yup, I was just about to mention the starter motor! Also faulty ignition assemblies can do it.. Earths are a big one too, remove ALL the earth posts and clean the surface for good contact.. They fit the earths to painted bodies and rely on the bolt to make contact through the treads.. You...

G'day Tony.. thanks for chiming in. I don't really know, it can't be the head gasket "you'd think" -so I'm hoping it's the issue... I am planning on " more working myself upto it" doing the motor rebuild and gearbox but not juuuust yet.. That thermostat housing is actually part of the "oil pump...

Howdy, they're know for splitting tanks from cores.. plastic to alloy uggg I'd say pure coincidence my man... I'm chasing a leak and I just recently changed colours too :)) pure coincidence im betting... new genuine radiators are cheap..

Any suggestions on what silicone, adhesive etc you'd try?

Doing its thing... this is the end that goes to the thermostat housing..

First coat of rust treatment..

To do it right i should replace it, but I'm scared shiteless it would be well seized and break that cover and aperture on removal... It's much cleaner now so I'm willing to give the sealant a try, fit the new hose and give it a few days to set properly and then fit the clamp.. You can see...
