Engine jurking when cold 2.7td (maverick)

[rustic]

Oh the joys of owning a pre-intercooler T2 - no CKP, no MAF, agricultural electronics which seldom go wrong, I have however just had to replace my positive battery clamp (steel one this time, €2.30 here in Spain), my clock backlight bulb and my drivers side window regulator a few months ago (that was for a mechanical problem though), that's the limit of my electrical problems in two and a half years of ownership.
Definately a case of older is better!

I agree, the older the better..

But in 2011 I have had to fork out £6.50 for a new rear screen washer pump.:doh


Last year it was a new front screen washer pump.




The expense........:doh
