The Alternator belt?, mine runs Two.

Electrically the Alt. is probably OK. The shaking around from the loose bolt probably loosened the signal wire, this will cause the flashing of the instrument lights. Repair the hole and try it, if it does not work get the diodes tested by someone that knows what they are, they can lose a diode...

Renate, The vehicle will run for a surprising amount of time on good batteries. Starting it is the biggest drain, and lights, if it is Diesel there is not even an ignition circuit to use power. A friend of mine once ran a single battery motorhome from about 50 miles inside France to his...

Should you not be able to get a used one a worn mounting hole is an easy repair, even without welding.

I have answered this one with a bit of research. Cats are avail., even universal ones, a lot cheaper. The seats are different. The car is not worth the hassle of breaking, even though it is in good nick.

Hi, My brother has a 98 90 series that has just dipped the MOT for a cat. He has been told that a new one will cost £1200 and the car is not worth getting fixed, although it has been well looked after. So a few questions. Does anyone know of a cheaper supplier of cat's for the 90...

Voted. There is only one option if we want to keep the European connection in the name, that is if you disregard ELCOC as it is open to a bit of ridicule.

This is a vehicle produced and designed in Japan, they do not know the imperial measurement system. The pipes will be 5mm and the fittings will be metric threads. There is only 11 thou. difference on the pipe size but the flare shape is different.

Re: Axillary autobox oil cooler. Instead of soldering bends on why not buy a hand bender for 6/8/10mm pipe and put bends in.

Thanks Crispen. The parts no.'s are still there and that may be enough. I have just dipped the MOT as there is one missing. I hope the thread is OK, I don't fancy Heli-coiling it.

Hi, Has anyone got, or got a link to, the 80 series parts list. I am looking for the studs and nuts that hold the steering arms on to an 80. I have the parts list from Julian but I have never got it to load properly on my pc. I have seen it on-line but I have forgotten where. Thanks.

Cossak, I would not go again on Croatia 2, we did that in 2007 as the first trip was cancelled. The country was far more crowded than on the first trip, (according to Robb) and Rovinj especially so. We did not go to Hum and Motovan (I think). From memory it was Samobor, Fuzine, Senj...

Cossak, I get on fine with Robb. I was in Russia with him in the winter of 2004, and then Croatia. Robb can be too laid back for some people. When we did Croatia one or two of the campsites were not well recieved, One due to price and one due to it being shit. We really liked the first...

Hi, Just registered from ELCO. I have an 80 with a few mods., the wife has a 70 with no mods. We have been off roading in Croatia, Russia and Iceland, to name the interesting ones. Never got to North Africa.

Into the engine bay and loop at the top. While you are at it take out the fitting from the axle and clear it out, the dirt collects in the bore of the fitting under the flap.

I have done the Croatia bit with Rob. in 2007. Very interesting country. Good off-roading. Nice coast and a good coast road, interesting as opposed to safe. We had a fair trek down, stopped in southern Germany the first night and Maribor the second. The second stop was just to stop us from...
