My neighbour, two doors down has a tractor, very similar to the blue one on his lawn. His plan is to restore and do vintage rallies.. It's also blue, I'm sure its a Ford.

As title, is there a well known, or specific OBD code reader, for my 95 that you could recommend please. Thanks Steve.

Wobbly, (Pete) He did tow a caravan. Thanks for the replies, I am going to leave it for the moment ,just monitor, I am sending to OZ for a twin, engine / gearbox temp monitor. I have no plans to tow, or off road, this vehicle, it will be lucky to do 3000 miles a year, which wont add much more to...

Double post

OK air con rad, understand, sorry to be pain, don't understand MD. If this little ATF rad is in addition, to the one in the radiator.. 1. is this a good thing, or 2. might the ATF oil now be too cooled, i.e two rads cooling. 3. have I still got to be vigilant, as they are mixing the ATF in with...

WOBBLY, i'm sorry I ment ATF cooler I think ??, SAE70 picked up on it. Been out tonight and had a look.. 1. I have a brand new,radiator,its nearest to the engine,with the fan attached to it, it has two outlets at the bottom, one in each corner. 2. I have another radiator,which is black, roughly...

It may be that they have installed your one in addition to the OE oil cooler, but it's still very poorly installed IMHO :icon-neutral: Here's a couple of photos of mine how it looked before and after the thread :icon-smile: Looking back at the photos now yours is much higher than...

Thanks for the positive replies. I have to say, the credit is to the previous two owners, especially the last one,who seemed to have an endless pocket,and also the mind set,it had to go to Toyota to be sorted. It seems the day before he part exed it, he put it in to Toyota for a full service and...

Pictures of my Colorado 95 I bought :icon-biggrin: not imagined :eusa-naughty: last week, Happy on the drive :icon-cool: Got to try and get the indicators in mirrors to work 2'' inch lift The hole ready for a draw system big 3'' juicy full stainless exhaust sounding growly My sparkly...

Ok this is a test, if it works, i can do my LC rather than my toy.

Tonight after work, I blasted,sprayed, and basically soaked the inside of the chassis legs with Dinatrol, while the weather is dry and warm.

I also fancy the metal ducting with ply cladding. My design, so far, sounds similar to yours. My rear seats are split 60/40? (1 seat / 2 seats) Draws, high as the back seat when folded fore ward, the little separate side pods, but a second sheet of ply,cut 60/40 and hinged to the top. These can...

Welcome

Been reading through build posts on draw systems. Most seem to date back to around 2010 -2012, there seemed to be a busy period. After living with these draw systems,you have made yourselves, can anyone take the time to say, what they now think of them. Are the wood based ones, stronger...

Heart stop moment, Sunday morning, other half had taken it out on Saturday, to running club. I know she would have ''monitored it '' as you do with new vehicles, she would have just got in and drove for the hills.. First thing Sunday morning 7.30am I went out for a casual look over, and on the...

Ha, no imagination, been out photographing tonight, got to do a few more worthwhile posts apparently then figure out how to get them on here. My wife who is south of five foot tall, shall we say, petit, has confiscated it for tomorrow,standing by the side of it, it either makes her look tiny, or...

After joining here over a month ago, all I have done is read and read, the search button is worn out. But thanks to all, who have posted over the years I was able to understand, and decide what I wanted, from all the information on here. Yesterday, after a daily vigil,and also the increased...

I am about to go look at a 95 which has a claimed 2'' lift. My question is , will this alter the ride a lot from standard. I have no plans to off road, and a lift would not have been on my shopping list, however, this vehicle has come up, and I was wondering... 1. Will the ride be much more...

Hi, I joined the forum,and have mainly spent the last few weeks, just reading.ha.. My head is now fried... I need a fair size vehicle,it must be 4x4, I will hardly ever go seriously off road, more rutted track, but more importantly, snow. I do little mileage,2k a year..(I have another car) I do...

I have been reading for days, the massive amount of stuff on here, trying to learn what I need to know, when I go hunting a colorado 95. I come from Land Rover, and although they have a rep for unreliability,(mine were fine, and no problem) parts were readily available, and pretty much pennies...

I was surprised to see Jonathan Edwards wearing glasses, when he has been telling us how good laser eye surgery is for years.

Thanks for the reply bob. I enjoyed your thorough job on the tank resto. Mind, having said that, I just picked up a £750 labour bill for fitting two £6 gaskets to my T5 I will keep an eye out for your next job on the 95.. Thanks Steve.

Hi Shayne, yes, 95 (5 door) Colorado, just mooching,learning, and researching, but saw this and thought, just a tad more than flippin hell, when I saw the cost.

Lovely job done there, but please excuse my ignorance here, total cost nearly 1300 pounds, how much is a breakers fuel tank,or is there some tongue in cheek or in joke here... Or my gosh, what am I getting in here, seems very expensive to me..

Hello Pat, not really a fan of watching rugby, used to play it, a long time ago, I'm more into motor racing. Thank you Shayne for the run down, I have to get this van gone, and then will start to look at a few vehicles to drive. The auto does not totally fill me with love,but thy seem to be way...

Thanks for reply, Richie, I live in the Caerphilly area.
