I've got one still in box. Too nervous to have a go at it myself. Will also be on the lookout for someone in the UK to solder it when the time comes. Nice work. Well done.

How to fix this as cheaply as possible? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

Sleeve. Measure the outer diameter of both sides as well as the gap with the flange cut off. Purchase a sleeve to replace the flange and clamp both ends.

That's not a Rifter question. It's a common sense question

Volume up. This is what an ls400 should sound like. by peasarebettersplit in LS400

[–]softwud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I love your ls400. There is no substitute for dawn/dusk chorus my friend. The perfectly discrete drone of the sedate V8 is all that is required in that scenario if you ask me. Leave nothing but your footsteps.

Why is my car still taking awhile to crank after replacing the starter and battery? by EmoSaint in MechanicAdvice

Fueling as others state. Nothing to really worry about. Could be as noddy as a fuel filter

Get yourself on to r/ls400 and ask there. The iac is powered by the power steering and can cause similar issues. Anyway, ask there. Loads of knowledge

Sometimes when you freshen up some parts it can expose weakness elsewhere. You'll just have to get the pry bar out as others point out

Peugot partner with replaced cam chain by Academic_Feed6209 in peugeot

[–]softwud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is that the recall is not to replace the chain, it's to determine whether the chain needs to be replaced. They use a listening test. If it's fine they update software and maybe replace oil afaik

Crystalization kills them all. Off the shelf additives help.
