Ill race you Pete,

Who will have it home first?

Probably you.

Sadface.

Race, the 34s are too farkin heavy to push, you win, lol

You will notice I try not to guess when I will get anything done anymore BUT by the end of the week I will be driving down the Highway, looking for adventure :)

Hope you get yours back real soon , I miss my spirited drives, it is boring without it :/

Tell more about leak

I tried to add the Video they sent but it would not load on SAU , maybe this laptop as I have a lot of trouble with it ?

It was at the top of the radiator, were the orange hose is clamped on, they had it under 20psi pressure to try and find it on Saturday, but it did not show up. They did it again today and there it was, pissing out ??

I do not understand that and wonder if all of that pressure did not cause the leak at the radiator, you would think if it was going to show up it would have done so when they first applied the pressure to the system, but cars ?

So I guess it comes down to when the car is being driven again or on the Dyno when they are doing the tune ?

Well at least it isn't disappearing into the motor. That would be suck.

Also metal and heat are interesting in their own way. But surely there would be a green/white stain down the radiator or at least at the bottom.

I'm glad they found it though.

I will wait until it has been driven before I get excited about the leak being found, it sucks being a pessimist :/

I was hoping to get the Dyno info today, maybe tomorrow. I thought it was done last week but they said it had to go back on again, not sure if it is on the Dyno ATM or not ?

It sucks waiting :/

Post the video on youtube and link it. Come on I have gone through a tonne of popcorn waiting for this.

haha, it just shows a pressured leak on the Orange hose for about 4 seconds but I will try on my PC as my the laptop is shit :(

No luck with the PC, never posted a vid on youtube :/

Fired off a few emails asking when the tune will be finished and since everything else has been fixed, it is only the FINAL TUNE to be done, should be interesting to see if the 3.5" Dump & Cat can pick up 14KWs to nudge it over 400KW, BUT more importantly, if it feels any different to drive :/

3 months just fly by when you are having fun :)

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
