    Over-revving at start up

    Hi My HDJ80 has developed a nasty habit. It started when we had the snow, and I hoped it would go away when it warmed up. It hasnt... At start up it revs at 1800rpm, once it has warmed up this settles down to about 1000rpm and appears to be normal. This takes about 10 -15 minutes and seems to...

    Which Leatherman

    I have a charge, a wave and a kick... All are good, the finish on the charge is the best. The Charge and the Wave, get used daily... I open envelopes and boxes at work with the kick, and it is a hand diy tool there. All good, so I guess it only comes down to budget.

    England vs South Africa

    Great question... they both played pretty shite today... It could be one of the best games ever... or it could be more fun to stand in the rain and count the drops... It will be very interesting

    For our South African Members...

    Sharks just love Atlantic Salmon... On a serious note - the way Sharks came out the first 15 minutes, I doubt any team would have withstood the sheer ferocity. I was scared watching :shock: Next- England...

    4x4 Rescue 12 ton truck

    Cool video... If I can critically evaluate the scene as one who has driven 4 x 4 trucks, admittedly with 20 passengers... Not enough digging as soon as they broke through the crust, and poor use of the mud mats - it is amazing how qucikly the situation becomes unrecoverable in a truck. It...

    Crazy Gap year CH4

    Amazing trip. Incredible that they managed to get going after the disaster. Breaking rule 1 of overlanding in Africa was careless: No night driving - a reminder to us all. Also, having been in touch with the Pindorias before and since their trip I can also let you know that the film is Channel...

    Drivers Window Motor

    Hi I have just cleaned up the contacts on my window switches... I had hoped that this would sort out my drivers window, which is stuck up. It looks like the motor is dead - it just has a faint click when the button is switched. Apart from e-bay, does anyone know a reliable seller of window...
