Arctic - the two wire plug into the unit (mostly white and red in your photo) seemed a bit short. However, I suppose it may work if I just fix one end on as you have.

I think the next most important jobs are change the gearbox oil and find the spare key, which I think is with the exhaustive lever arch of info file the previous owner left. I think, unfortunately, he had OCD. He also seemed focussed on the rear tracking!? I think I know where the file is but it's not accessible the the Steptoe and Son house we live in. I, on the other hand, cannot recall where I put the plenum guards that Jules sent me.



Tune into Radio 4Extra (708 on Freeview) for the radio version of that show.


Thanks

If the cable is tight on your car Johnny you can cable tie the EGR control valve to the starter motor - a quick and easy permanent fix.

"cable tie the EGR control valve to the starter motor"


So that is what the little devil is!


I have quite some experience with petrol engines but always got someone to do diesels for me and it can be quite different. Even with the Haynes - ha ha - pictures in it are poor.


Thanks - done with this thread now.
