Not actually done anything on my truck, but did fix my garage roller door that's not worked for the last 7years. By fixing the door and tidying the garage I can finally get the hardtop off and start the rest.

I brushed off the cobwebs and jump started the old girl , it's been sat for a while and had a flat battery and a second oil leak has appeared . On the plus side the new clutch is on its way from Milner 👍

Got the bug to fix it now , just changed the cheep Chinese oil pressure gauge for a more branded one , alakazam and hey presto I now have oil pressure at idle . Cheep arse one was giving a zero psi reading at idle and new one is showing about 20psi , well happy now

Fitted prop filled up rear prop with fresh gear oil . Now waiting on white spray grease to spray beat pipes with

Yep it's for acumalator, when I did the body lift I noticed the pipe was rotten on mine so won't be long before it falls off

If anyone wants to make there own one here is what I did .
Cut the plastic loop off with a hacksaw , used a file to make the surface flat , the hole was made with a Braddel and then gently made larger with a Philips screwdriver and then a flat blade one to get it close to the final size for the fitting to screw into , I did the hole this way as the plastic is quite thin and drilling would remove material, stretching the hole open ( no dirty comments ) gives more plastic for the threads to bite into , I used glue on the threads of the fitting to ensure no leaks
