Re: My latest common sense failure

Good work dude.

Minimal rust really, good your treating it now.

Shame to following vans never got the same build quality.

Re: The worst best Jimny.

I'm swapping the windscreen over to my other halfs Jimny, the rear props getting swapped over, anything that's better for her road going one.

Re: Hot battery

Check the either end of the battery. See if the ends are bulged out. If they are then the battery has sulphated and will struggle holding a charge or provided enough amps on cranking.

If you was trying for a long time to get it started I'd guess a hot battery could be expected.

Re: Hot battery

Warm possibly. Hot sounds like it's shagged.

Has it been left to go flat? Has it been put on charge a lot?

Re: the no dosh LJ revamp

I'd whip the stat out and see if that helps with the cooling. If it does , i could have a look in the book at work for you and see if there's a suitable replacement that opens up at a lower temp, thus dropping the heat earlier. Top idea bud. May have a browse in the intermotor book and see if a col...
