Hi many thanks for the replies so far, the repair panels were from Schofields and seems o.k. The bottom edge seems to be about a 1/4 of an inch out in places. Will try to adjust as having the welder back is not an option the rest of his work was pretty good.

Hi my crossover was first registered 11 12 1972 probably think this is one of the later crossovers but someone here will know better than I. It still retains its low lights, larger rear lights and rounded bumpers, so I think it hasn't been messed about with too much during it's life. I simply...

Hi did you happen to set the choke by backing it off from your previous post , it sounds as though the engine is being over choked therefore running too rich.

Hi read the new jack bag and tool roll with great interest. Was wondering what type of jack most people carry around, of course at home I have a very strong trolley jack but in the van I carry a rather heavy bottle jack, think it is from a Landrover. Would be interesting to know what we use...
