So yesterday my plan was to bleed up the brakes on my Lil sj. Started bleeding brakes up and the pedal went solid with the nipple fully open kept trying few different things but still solid took for test drive brakes worked fine so left it. while my mate was under the car he noticed a puddle of oil....

Yeah that's my sj and my mates vitara had good day at baldhu. It is a bit far if urs is anything like myne saying that i do about 150-200 miles a week in myne to work and back. Only had one incident up there will get pic up of it when get on a computer. Pushed the front shackle up under the car bit ...

Made up some extended arches for the sj today just need to work out a way of fitting them to the car will get pics up when there on

Ok thanks will have to get asking about.

That could be the reason myne was leaking going to try and change oil on it tmos morning where can i get a replacement gaiter from?

I wanted to do a 1.6 conversion but at the min just want to get it running right and stop oil leaks the transfer box is the next on my list of jobs to do. Maybe engine conversion next year.

So the oil leak turned out to be my own fault didn't do sump plug up tight 1 oil leak done now to sort transfer box out.

Ok so in found out today that the sj not burning as much oil as 1st thought i got oil leak aswell. Will fix oil leak first and gi from there. Any one no what size copper washer i need for sump plug.

I found full head gasket kit on ebay so will do all of the gaskets i get in the set is it worth doing piston rings cam belt and water pump while in at it?
