Stage 1 V8

Nicely done, given the tools to hand.

Mine is getting to the point of needing a rebuild, but I'm put that off as long as possible.

Cheap and easy fixes are always the best.

I've sent the pdf but it's quite large. Coming via MailDrop so let me know if it doesn't come through.

Send me an email to disco2hse@gmail.com. I'll send you the V8 supplement that has a few pages of wiring diagrams for various regions and optional extras.

How did you fit a sensor to the choke cable? My choke cable is rubbish but you can't get the original and I want the choke light to come on.

Sand bags on the ground, tied to the corners and half way along the sides should prevent lift off.

A cheapish PVC tarp would cover it for the winter.

Good stuff.

For mine, George, because it was delivered to NZ CKD, the actual build date is uncertain. But the 40th is coming up soon.

With the price of 95 octane, it would pay for itself after a couple of fills

Nice looking wagon.

I saw this on other pages on FB. The general consensus seems to be that it is likely to be a cut down chassis and not originally an 88.

Well done. Is the bonnet buckled? I've had to take my spare off mine for that reason and haven't yet found a way to straighten and repair it.

Not sure where to get a suitable bonnet from either.

You sure that's where it's coming from? You sure is it not elsewhere in the drive line?

Can't help you with the LT95 innards but it seems the tif there is no noise until it is all connected up, then the cause may be elsewhere.

I need to replace the choke cable

Now that they are made from unobtainium, what are people using? I hear the One Ten and Ninety cables are too short. I don't want to lose the dash light.

Unlikely. Just take it to a good quality radiator repairer and have it recored. I got mine recored with a triple core and have no issues with it since (still been getting hot this summer, but road temps of 40ºC+ will push it up). While it's out, replace the water pump too. They are reaching end of l...
