Title: A big thanks to MC for my 300tdi conversion
Post by: landyman Ash on August 28, 2005, 22:29:48

After much swearing, hair pulling and general lack of knowledge I managed to get my V8 hybrid changed to a 300tdi and today it ran for the first time.

Thanks to help from you guys, I as a amature did the conversion  :lol:

Big thanks to V8redline, stanton boy and many more.  Its things like this that make you realise how amazing the mud club is and what HUUUUGGEEEEEE amount of knowlege is available through it.

Thanks to all, could never have done it without MC members!  :D

Guess where my club is next weekend??????

BILLING!!!!  Doubt it will be as wet but still lots of water to play in!

This is why I had to get it running this weekend.

Still need temp guage and oil pressure plus prop shafts etc but nothing too tough, at worse I'll trailer it to billing and finish it on site
