...or in this case did not do...

I did not drive my Defender along a flooded road because a Police officer in PINK WELLIES said I could not!

Only the pink wellies make this remarkable. And yes, the reason for not letting me through was a good one.

Replaced the clutch switch on my td5.

What a difference! It now backs off the throttle when I do, not half a second later. It must have been stuck on, so permanently telling the ecu I was pressing the clutch, even when I wasn't.

First job in a few months which has actually cured the symptoms I was trying to sort out!

Passed 224,000 miles.

For once it was a sunny day and not raining, so I set to:-

Washed it for the first time in three months.

Rubbed down a couple of rusty patches - one on the rear offside capping (so I see it every day getting worse) and the other on the rear offside door frame. Did all the proper prep and then a couple of coats of POR-15. The capping got a top coat of Java Black too.

Once a small pot of POR-15 is opened it goes off very quickly, so I slopped a coat onto the rear cross member and tow bar brackets. Didn't want to waste it... Dave

Certainly seems so. Tick over seems a little smoother. It still jerks as I back off the throttle but this now feels more mechanical, somewhere in the drivetrain - and at least it jerks exactly when I back off and not when it feels like it! It is certainly worth a punt at circa £25 if you have issues.

I get jerkyness in low gears/low revs so maybe worth a dabble. 1999 Defender TD5 110
