  1. Hey all Sum of uz May red my other posts been having a few problems lately one thing then another got a list of parts I'm going to be ordering from mike at TD but back to the problem cars not been starting sumtimes just keeps ticking over with no entension to start then other days it will go no probs, few guys said check leads plugs fuel pump etc etc so I did but got to checking fuel pump and when I lifted the seat up seen the tape holding the wires down pulled it up and the actual casing for the fuel lines has been stuck on with sum black sticky sh*t tried just pulling it but the small lip
  2. Ok cheers guys could that be what's causing it not to start sum times? Ordering a shed load of stuff for TD end of the month was told it was the fuel pump that was gone when it wasn't starting sumtimes, but I guess I've killed the battery tryin to turn it over to much because tonight I tried to start it and it half started as if it was going to start then just kept turning over with this new clunking noise Cheers guys
  3. So the last few days car hasn't been starting sum times recently but other times it will start no problem but tonight I tried to start it and the battery ran low half turning over then every time it halted turned it made a clicking/clunking noise , not to sure if this could be a sign of starter motor or sum thing else unsure May just be because the battery's low didn't want to keep trying as the battery was nearly dead anyone any ideas what it could be? Any help appreciated cheers Dusty

    Steaming up

    Funny you say that few weeks ago I gave her a good wash inside and looked under the spare wheel and it was wet the bung seemed ok there was oil mixed in about it aswel as the previous owner carried a spare can of oil in the boat and it must of been leaking, got it all moped up will need to check it again, see if it's dry can you buy replacement bungs for the boot and under the back seats? Was thinking of taking back seats out and giving them a good dry

    Steaming up

    Back seats are ever so slightly damp could this be what's causing it how would they become damp?
