Anything ...

Drove it from Leominster to Llangarron (and  back). It didn't blow off the turbo outlet pipe (200 Tdi bodge up) for a third time after I'd soldered a wire ring round the end of a bit of steel coupling pipe that was only swaged at one end! No idea why it hasn't done it before, it's been like that since I bought it 18 months and around 5,000 miles ago.

Hand my series 2 back on axle stands and with the wheels off to adjust the brakes, and improve the pedal feeling.  Might do another bleed at each corner in the morning, now the shoes are adjusted (locked up and backed off 2 clicks).

Nothing with the LR, but with my re-awakened skills and tools, I have fixed the leak-off pipes on the Eurobox

A first for me...checked and adjusted valve clearances. Quick run afterwards didn’t result in any explosions, so I’m classifying as a success.

Used as the works van taking 2 of the church lawn mowers to be repaired.

Fitted refurbished alternator and also repaired a couple of broken wires.

Testing why the temp and fuel gauges are not working.  The wiring seems good, and the voltage regulator is showing 10 v output (I have a late series 2a gauge fitted, with correct later fuel sender), but no joy.  Maybe just having 10 l in the tank isn’t enough to lift the sender or move the gauge upwards. I used a second temp sender and even dipped in my hot tea this did nothing.  Only when I earthed one of the gauge terminal directly did the gauge move upwards.  I have a spare that I will give a try with tomorrow.

Replaced the wiper wheelboxes. The old ones came off the rack easily since the gear and wiper shaft were easily pushed back to release the rack. The new ones weren't so user friendly- the gear and wiper shaft are retained in the assembly and the  things had to be threaded onto the rack. This was a bit of a pain for the nearside one, requiring the offside vent control to be detached from the dash.

Stopped the gear jumping random wipe arc though
