Re: Steering problem

The first problem was all the bushes were shot, the second thing was the guy who fitted the kit had just put the bushes in ( no metal spacer ) and just locked them together. I've fitted new bushes + spacer and fitted ...

My sj does not like water.

Hi guys. My sj does not like water. If I get it so that under the bonnet is wet I will develop a misfire. If I take the leads off and the coil lead give it a clean and all runs good. I've seen a few posts where people say they don't need to waterproof the dizzy so wondered if anyone has had this pro...

The only thing I noticed wrong with it was with the slight lack of power due to the huge tyres it has fitted. I just wondered if th...
