Re: K&N apolo cold air closed system
What area do you have available? Can have a look at work tomorrow and check out what size donaldson enclosures would suit. Off the top of my head I'm nearly certain it'll work out alot cheaper than the K&N one you're looking at too. Will be easier getting a new one that fits your requirements rather ...

Re: warning lights
An led is a diode so adding another one won't do anything. Probably needs a resistor to bring the voltge down, but not sure why the fuse would blow instead of the led burning out

Re: Terrano problems
The rev counter thing isn't just the needle drooping and dragging on the dial surface is it? The needles on the older terranos seem to be made out of shit that bends when it gets hot. You can bend them back if you're careful, take the steering wheel surround off, unscrew the plastic cluster surround ...

2-3 days on 'fast'way can do free
overnight island to island on courier post is about $22
or, if you don't want the antenna it'll fly into a courier bag, overnight about $7

Re: Terrano auto leaking
got a bit delayed last night, and I've just discovered two bolts at the back (transfer case end) that I can't get a socket onto. Can just get the ring end of a spanner onto it but not enough room to turn it.
Anyone got any tips for getting those last two bolts off?

Re: Terrano auto leaking
Bummer, oh well I have it now. 83 was the trade rate too!
I'll try bnt next time for sure, they seem to be better value all round. Right, off to pull the pan off now.
Should I be using a gasket sealer too? I've heard varying thought as to the necessity of it

If you like river crossings macetown is another good trip.
As far as 4wd rentals in queenstown go, there were quite a few prado rentals around in the winter, so tehre must be some available. We hired a double cab hilux a few years ago too but I don't think that company is still around

Terrano auto leaking
I've noticed a bit of oil on the drive over the past couple of days, thought I'd do an oil change and check everything out while I had it up on stands. Looks like most of the auto trans fluid has leaked out. The pan has oil on it and appears to be worse toward the back and in the middle. I couldn't ...

You should be fine in a camary, Dad and I took mums Corolla into skippers (he didn't want to take his car ) but you shouldn't have any problems. I'm not sure how you'd be placed with insurance. Other times I've been in with my terrano there have been other small cars. It's basically just a gravel ...

I wasn't sure if it was worth getting my old one rebuilt, the quotes I got were all over the place so I just took the jump and went with a whole new one.
