Ah Stock mate what can i say its same old same old over and over with stuff made here, it was all new and great and innovative when it was first made but then its never moved on, its left behind by time, same with the british motorbike industry the car industry and electronics then along come the japs and wham there's goes the market, they just do it better and keep on improving and then thirty years to late our lot try to catch up using the cheapest parts available, sorry mate there was a time i'd bang the drum but now i just bang me head against the wall .

Yep chuffed the I.H is all up and running, now i know what i got to work with i'll eventually figure how far i want to go with it, y'know.. working kit or shined up hobby job, reckon it will be the first one really after all ain't no point in having a loader thats scared of getting dirty . The Patrol was fine and it did get a stonking all the way down and back up at the finish, i had it fully serviced by a rogue nissan mechanic with all makers stuff used. I had heard a few comments on the 3.0 so did a bit of aussie off road investigation through the web, read reports spoke (email) to some owner drivers down under who off road em and followed up on a bit of aftermaket info from nissan itself, it all came together did what was advised and no problems. I ran in company with a fully kitted 4.2 land bruiser auto and found it was step for step off road except some of the steeper decents where he could hold back slower on engine drag but that was it, on road coming back i gave up having to hold back and we split and i ran at an average speed of 90 mph (uk), the end result was i hit Calais France 4.5 hours ahead of him. I checked all the fluids Monday and apart from a cupful of coolant everything was on the mark, what can i say i rate it .

Good to hear the International is a goer Muchmud ,is that your initial problems solved then and just the new ones to go .
How's the Patrol behaved ,some of the 3ltr ones here had a few nasty faults that led to total motor destruction ,the resale value is as poor as a Landrover for those models.

Hi all back again, just before i snuck off i had a last go at sorting the dreaded machine problems and guess what it worked having done the battery / starter and welting it with a bigger hammer i tried the ruddy starter inhibitor switch and yeah thats the bugger. Bypassed it and up she run, i didn't have time to try it out in any serious way but she starts / runs ok with a bit of smoke initially, she tracks without problems and lifts tilts opens closes smoothly so thanks for all the advice given along the way. Soon as poss i'm going to push her into some dirt and she how she performs. I will pull the inhibitor switch and see if it can be sorted but until its out i don't know if its a repairable or replacement job. Did my getaway trip to Spanish Pyranees mountains in the Patrol ( can't trust a langer) was good fun and the motor never missed a beat, could do with a exhauster brake with so many long loose downhills.

Your wee piccy under your name .... I could put one there for you if you like .... but you'd need to find me a pic for me to use

Right....i think, so i need summit looking like Neptune with a spanner instead of the trident and maybe a puzzled face holding a none existant I.H. manual yeah ?
