Defender won't start

Either battery or starter or injector seals as oil level is higher than usual.

Too cold and wet to figure out which so I'm sat by the fire playing grand theft auto 5 taking my frustrations out with drive by shootings!

Going to the local agricultural garage and get him to fix it in his dry warm garage! I have new injector washers and seals ready to go on.

That leaves the winch to wire up and put the rope on, hopefully in time to do some off roading on sat at an Pay and Play site barely 1 mile from my home Very Happy for 15 all day. very nice wooded site with clay type mud so should be interesting after the rain we've had! 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)

I just use a voltage sensing relay. I think it is the most simple system, and I just looks after it's self. Also have a twin battery monitor, so I can keep any eye on things, but never had a problem.

Now I have to work out where I want all the kit (sub, inverter, fridge etc.)

How's it going down there Bob? Hope all is okay.

Today I fitted a few more SS screws only four but still.
Mainly took the time to give the engine bay a clean along with all the plastics and so on.
Looks like new! Mr. Green Also took it as a good opportunity to check the oil and if anything else is a-miss which thankfully all is good. (Touch wood) ⭐️⭐️God Bless the USA 🇬🇧🇺🇸 ⭐️⭐️

really pleased, and may have to spray them gloss black to stop them going grey in a couple of years time but they look good i think!

just wish i could get some decent photos of mine, always seem to not come out great...

Spent a few hours trying to sort a water leak. Couldn't test my handywork afterwards because it got dark Big Cry so will have a look if I've fixed it tomorrow unless I rains before Rolling Eyes

went and had a look around Marlow and Henley. There are some really bad bits that I just had a sit back and watched, there were others that I had a bit of fun through but nothing to be worried about.

Mill Lane in Henley has a full blown cross current raging through it! ===================================
