    Colorado glow plug change needed??

    Hello all. No reals problems but the old Collie takes a few turns to start recently. Guess maybe because its colder. Batteries are fine, just wondering if the Glow Plugs need a change. I've read around and some say change at 100,000k, some say don't bother unless they fail definitely. Is it an...

    Cargo boxes and storage for expeditions

    Hi all. After a few days on Exmoor camping I decided I needed a simpler, larger storage solution so done a search and came across these Plano storage cases. They are really well made in the US and very strong and waterproof. Small are around £35 each. I bolted a perforated steel strip across the...

    Click Click goes the Starter Motor

    My 25 year old Starter Motor clicked and didn't spin on my Auto Colorado 3.0TD so ordered one from RoughTrax and got it fitted. All good now. So I thought as its an auto a spare is essential if off roading and on expedition. I decided to take a look inside and what I saw was what I had read...

    Can't find any specifics on the forum, but I bet there is somewhere, any tips on replacing the starter motor on my 90? Its looks pretty straight forward but is it all done from under the truck or do I take the air box out? Sure I read that somewhere? I've got the right one as I took a look...

    I have ROAD VENTURE AT61 on my Colorado and have no complaints apart from not being that great in mud, which isn't surprising. Has anyone tried the MT51's? A couple of Youtube reviews look ok but wondering if anyone on this forum has any comments? BF's are the benchmark but almost double the...

    It just happened...

    After an off road 3 day trip Coast 2 Coast in Yorkshire and a more recent off road day across Salisbury Plain I started thinking about a decent navigation system. I subscribe to the OS Mapping and purchased a Garmin GLO 2 to pair with my iPad Air. Then I thought how can I hold the iPad when I...

    Just a little thing could turn out to be a big thing

    Noticed this the other day. A very small fluid leak on the coolant hose to the Auto Box. Its one of the ones on the bottom of the radiator to the auto box. It had been rubbing on the cross member and caused a very small split. Good thing was there was enough to snip off 25mm and push back on...

    And.......breathe

    When changing the differental's oil and transfer box oil, I noticed the oil spat out of the filler plug of the rear diff when I took it out. Too much pressure build up I think to myself. When I looked at the diff breather valve on the top of the housing it was rusty and falling apart. More to...

    Clunk moving into Drive on Colorado Auto

    Probably been a thread before about this but I sometimes get quite a clunk when going into Drive, sometimes into reverse but not a "clunky". Is it just driveline slack as I've read on some threads, I've greased the UJ's and all that stuff...any ideas???

    Through body wiring

    I didn't like the thought of trapping a LED light and CB Radio aerial lead through the door so I bit the bullet and took a hole saw to the truck. Quite pleased with the outcome and a better job all round. Needs a bit of tidy up but almost there. Hopefully the images explain themselves :)

I've checked the temp of the pipes going into and out of the heating matrix and they are very hot when engine at temp. Can just about hold them. Anyone any ideas why the truck heater is just...
