Yes when I pressed the print button before it took all the adverts out which was what I hoped today

Thanks

I seem to recall in the old Forum it was possible to print articles, I filled them for reference. I cant seem to find the same button as before, Can some one point me in the right place

Brings back memories of them running around Rosyth, thanks

Yes , pointless fretting any longer - even in a snow storm removing the rocker cover will not cause further damage. With the cam rotation you have , with cover off - you should be able to get valve lash & rotate the push-rods with your fingers , if you can't then that would indicate a / the problem - if you have not already got a immediate visual. 

Many thanks, all help appreciated, just a relief the camshaft rotated even just a little bit and my mate Jim says he can here compression, as said its a long time since he worked on Land Rovers and we both need help, do have the parts manual so will copy those pages in case we get oil on them

Was intending to but thanks for reminding me

If you can get it in the dry, and start dismantling. There are people on this forum with the knowledge and will be prepared to talk you through it. Save on garage expense.

We are attempting to get the rocker cover off this weekend to see what we can see, weather permitting

Thanks, just need to find a garage I can use, think my friend knows to a certain extent but hasn't worked on Land rovers for a while and needs an idea hence the question about tappits. will see if I can get one of those marquee shelters at the moment

I have only known one push-rod bent - sort of bad 'S' shape , however that was as a result of a pile up of a cam lobe /follower roller /tappet slide.  Actually - I would have expected the rocker to snap first -  they are flame hardened at stem face but seem cast material - not forged, rocker snap before push-rod bends. . A long story but further investigations revealed the head had been off , (recent replaced head gasket) with some bad work.  I suspect you have a problem on a tappet-slide assembly - so rod could be bent. You may be lucky , just flat(s) on roller & camshaft not wrecked.

Many thanks, we just need to get an idea before dismantling as don't really want to take to a garage just yet

Don't know if it helps but it looks to me as if there is a hinge in the middle of the disk which would enable half of it to be flipped over, thus changing the colour of the disk, perhaps as a signal or an aide memoire to a crucial part of a checklist?

I thought that was a pointer, like a incline measure but can see your point

Is it part of a range finder and they reporting fall of shells back to the ship

I got my friendly mechanic out yesterday, thankfully the camshaft turns but locks after 4 turns, we haven't started to dismantle the engine yet, the question he asked, its a 1986 Land Rover 110, is it like the old transit when the push rods for the tappits bends. 

Can any one help?

Having read a lot on this and other sites I seem to see sand blasting to remove paint and rust is a good procedure.

Not having much needing to be done at one time can any one recommend a kit, for a reasonable amount that I can use for occasional use, I have used a wire brush, hand and power drill, but does not clean as well.

The materials are mainly metal and occasionally wood

Thanks in advance

As far as I am concerned you can keep my details on the email,

Internally there are two "levelling" bubbles, one like a levelling bubble on a theodolite and another like a spirit level

I liked the look of this item at Witham, does any one have any information on how it was used, manuals etc?

Thanks in advance

I see Witham now selling as vehicle recovery kit

You could try Penman:-

If no success with Penman and no replies from other forum members, you may find a diagram of a similar hand brake lever if you search "hand brake lever assembly diagram" e.g.:-

http://www.revingtontr.com/tr4/triumph-catalogue/u

thanks, the later diagram helps, just need to think about going slowly ahead

Being more used to getting someone to help but trying to advance my skills.

I have a Penman trailer where the hand brake handle has been bent, see picture, I have a new unissued one to replace it, prior to dismantling it I would ask HOW, yes the bolt at the fulcrum point needs taking off , its the bit hidden i.e. the release button and cable, how do you remove it and then fit in the new handle.

Any idiots guide would be appreciated.

I have already changed the jockey wheel handle in case any one notices.

I shall take pictures tomorrow and post up.

Thanks, a description would have done to save you the trouble

Can you advise what areas they cover?

my apologies to them, trying to remember what i saw, memory may be playing up but did it have the double door for cargo?
