question So how do you strip one of these?

[Caddy]

I saw a how to in another thread, but cannot for the life of me remember how.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Unscrew that inner collar anti-clockwise.

Didn't you cover off this type of thing in your excellent article

 

All Charged Up!

Thank you Clive, I knew I saw it somewhere.

Have tried to unscrew it, but it ain't 'alf tight!

[fv1609]

This is the official way to do it. In lieu of the body holder you could loosely connect to its mating socket then the key ways will take some of the support. I think it is ACW but try CW as well the EMER doesn't say.

Cheers for that, actually can't use the socket as it was just dangling in the drivers compartment in our Cent AVRE.

It is apparently FV167319/1 another number underneath that one 819319/1 RWC.

It's connected into the Fighting Compartment Junction Box CB1A and CB1B.

I have no idea what it's for......

[Caddy]

Does

 

COOLANT

LTB1

 

mean anything?

 

Found it on a heat shrink label on the loom.

[fv1609]

Sorry no idea

 

819319/1 is the Prestolite number for

 

FV167319/1 that corresponds to Wiring Harness 2590-99-805-7142

 

2590 corresponds to miscellaneous vehicle components

That adjustable spanner is interesting, I'd assumed there was a pukka C-spanner.

 

Might "LTB1" be Link Terminal Box 1? And it's possibly for the water temperature gauge? I don't have experience of Centurion electrics so that's just a guess.

It is a little confusing, on the whole all connections are all bullet than plug. Saying that this one did serve in the first gulf war so there may have been additional mods.....
