Destinations gallery?? A question for Lurch.

Forum: 

Lurch/Everyone,

I promised some pics of my travels through western and northern Queensland, Australia, to show you poor island bound guys the real Aussie outback. But, I dont really wish to clutter up any of the existing galleries, as none of the pics actually show the Rocky. So Lurch, would you consider adding another gallery, named perhaps "Destinations" so members of the forum can put up pics of places they have travelled to. Opinions, either for or against, from other members would be welcome.

Hi there, I am new to 4x4 and live in Northamptonshire,
1. Does any other other member live close to me?
2. I have a Fourtack 1990 (H) and the brakes are very poor, Is this normal?
3. I am considering changing my tyres for a more off- road type, Any suggestions?
Cheers
Mike

Lack of power on F75

Forum: 

Thought I should share this with you. For a number of weeks my F75 has suffered from lack of power and would not do more than 60 mph. I did all the usual things....bled the fuel lines, bled the injectors, checked the fuel tanks and fuel lines...even checked all hoses to the turbo. The truck would sometimes run ok then lose power again.

3 days ago I climbed into the drivers seat and dropped my pen. I had to remove a floor mat to find it. Since then the truck has run like a dream....plenty of power...best acceleration ever and will do over 80 mph (a bit scary though). It seems the corner of the floor mat was getting trapped between the accelerator pedal and its stop !

Turbo F75

Forum: 

Does anybody know if the wastegate actuator on the turbo (F75 Fourtrack) is a seperate unit i.e. it is bolted onto the turbo Unknw I think the diaphram on my unit is not working as I have lost some boost and the actuator arm isn't moving when the engine is revved. I'm hoping I could get away with replacing just the vacuum unit rather than the whole turbo.
