  1. I have used viniger to remove rust and paint with good success. Small parts in a Chinese food tray. This adjustable spanner came as part of an original Land Rover tool wrap and was jammed. The Chinese container to small and the one with the tent pegs had been soaking for a while. Got an Irn Bru bottle and put the head in, never thought there would be capillary action. Apart from the fact it's still jammed the artistic will like what's happening
  2. First stage done, it looks like WD40 time as the pins for the handle have been sheared off. Need to find my tin
  3. Many thanks again, I will have a look tomorrow, daft thought was to try first by putting it upright and waggle the handle to see if it's a bit of something and let gravity see if it will loosen. If not spanner time, will post what I find
  4. Many thanks for this, just need to remember where the off set spanner are. Looking at the diagram I have a better idea on a plan of attack weather permitting
  5. Thanks looking at the picture on the lorry I was thinking the plastic may have been formed to help with attachment
  6. These have attached holding down points which appear to be omitted from latter ones. Great picture
  7. Trouble is i work away so cant nip out and look, but it does look like this Thanks
  8. Came across this today https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-65099516
  9. Many thanks for this, I think I need to get good weather and have a look A thought does occur that these elements may be broken which is causing the issue Will have another look at it next weekend weather permitting I have a Penman for it once working
  10. Yes it's more to carry water for plants and animals. I suppose next question is apart from regularly moving the tap, what to lubricate the tap with?
  11. Many thanks, it's not an urgent job but need to get done before summer. I was putting release oil aside for the moment as thinking of tainting the water. Will keep posted if I get it sorted
  12. Got this to help a friend The tap only partially turns to on. Apart from dismantling from the tank, any suggestions. I am going to put it vertical and "wiggle" the tap to see if anything jammed. Any other suggestions would be appreciated Richard
  13. RA 905 Tactical mast guy rope kit | eBay
  14. Next question, what would be in the kidney pouch, I assume mess tin and rat pack Looking at 1980s
  15. Thanks will look at tomorrow
  16. Many thanks, is there a guide to fitting the kit together? I only used ammo pouch and water bottle, looking at kidney pouch and poncho holder Thanks again
  17. Daft question but we're these issued in different lengths i.e. waist? Thanks in advance
  18. Many thanks, I think this is a development from the article in one of the land rover magazine, it's always great to learn about any mod items you hold
  19. Many thanks, I will send an email to Hobson's, as it's always interesting to follow a vehicle history
  20. The Merlin report I have says mine went to Stirling, Hobson based in Louth, would that be with same company? Thanks in advance
