You make me giggle sometimes! I offered you three steel wheels for free last week and you refused :augie Why not have two sets of wheels, one mud tyres on steels the other your road tyres to save noise, fuel, help handling etc then you could buy some really big and aggressive muds that you...

PS - I once saw an SJ with a K&N on top of its snorkel up briercliffe that was loosing power fast and he could not understand why... his filter was clogged with shite as it had got wet with rain then dirt stuck to it restricting air flow :rolleyes:

I personally think plastic drain pipe looks sh*t! On a nice car like yours it just would not look right, an SJ or Landy fair enough but not a shapely mav Did you see the tread on the other forum where I made one out of a short length of stainless and some flexi hose? Really looked the part...

Well if there is play in the shaft and the turbo rattles i'd say its pretty goosed but I aint no expert :augie

Absolutely nothing to do with the MAF. Cleaned it made no difference and makes no difference if its plugged in or not... :rolleyes: Plugged it into computer at a mates garage as the ecu light comes on and off intermittently. Only fault showing up is the V.S.S (Vehicle speed sensor) This is a...

You'll get different prices from everyone you speak to. Hit the yellow pages for upholsterers, get a few quotes and do the same for some replacement seats :thumb2

There is usually an upholsterer in your local yellow pages that can do it for you, otherwise like you say visit a breaker. Trouble is a good set may be expensive so it might be worth getting a quote for both :thumb2

LOVE THE ENGINEERS APPROACH TO FITTING... big metal hammer on floor :D

Where are you located Karl? Have you posted about this on the other forum? I recon there will be someone able to offer you a little physical assistance to find out exactly what is wrong rather than guessing. Graeme perhaps... ;) Dont worry mate, its called learning your trucks abilities...

I've run that tread on all my off-road motors, but with Greenway Macho labels. I think they are excellent tyres, great all rounders - good grip on tarmac and in mud! Good on side slopes too, they dont let go too early :thumb2

My mrs once came home from work and I happened to be outside when I heard her little 1.3 Hyundai pull up. Sounded like a 1970's diesel... Turned out there was hardly a drip of oil in it (apparently new Hyundai engines use quite a bit of oil????) So I took her around EVERYTHING. Oil, coolent...

I wasnt expecting that :D

There were a few good teachers tho, the ones who had been around forever and needed to retire they were old-school and still had old school values. I remember Mr Lonsdale our eccentric maths teacher, two lads had a problem he'd drag us both out into the west wing and tell us to scrap it out and...

I really dont think its a Javelin, back end is different and rear window missing... Heres a PD saloon http://www.motorbase.com/pictures/contributions/990720//std_1949_jowett_javelin_pa_saloon-svl_max_.jpg I'm swaying towards a classic "Opel" to be honest... I'd definitely say European rather...

I was one of the last who saw the good days! I went to primary school in the 80s and secondry school early 90s. I remember the days of the 80s before all the PC crew kicked off and health and safety. Then came the early 90s and Labour government... I watched all the rules change around school...

It really does look like a Jowett Javelin, but that nose just aint right. I found a pic that shows a Javelin in a similar state, but even if the grille was removed I cant see that huge nose being there...

Its pink! And so are the fluffy dice he has hanging from his rear view mirror ;)

Would have to be a bloody big spud mate! Did you see the tail pipe :rolleyes: I recon it would just shoot it back at ya anyway, and looking at the height its at and the length of your legs i'd be hoping you aint wanting more kids... ;)

Hit Ebay, make a list of all the breakers advertising and get ringing round! There is one guy on there with like 30 Mavs and Terranos in his yard, if he dont have a set i'll eat my hat ;)

I'll bring the Grand Cherry and see how it compares :D
