    Thanks Bill, yes they did that however nothing showed up. I have now purchased a UV torch for that process. Some of the hoses and fittings are buried beneath layers of other stuff, hence its difficult to see a leak without some disassembly. I will do these over the next couple of days to see if I can find the leak myself, which will make any subsequent visit cheaper.

    Sent the Trol off for a bit of surgery. Injection Pump needs to be replaced as a sensor has sh!t itself. Should be done in a couple of days.

    its actually a great idea. on a Break Down he could take more than just the driver if there is other passengers. Not sure if there is Laws restricting this though??

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Took him in and had the tail lights in the rear bar connected with Deutsche plugs for easy removal and replacement if needed and a wire for future use for number plate light, I’ve ordered some motorcycle light bolts same as I had on the other patrol. Also dropped the new second battery in, hopefully late more than one day now 😊
