First frost of the year, landy coughing!

[deezyboy]

First time I've seen proper frost this year, and even then the puddles aren't even frozen, pre heated the landy, jumped in, cough cough cough and now the battery is too flat for any good, brilliant! Hope everyone else's Mondays are better than mine!

At least the log boys will be happy!

One of the lads just texted me, Ldv won't start, neither will the vehicle that we park in the entrance to stop wandering vans. hope the disco starts when I go out.

And I've already had a waster on the phone wanting a quote over the phone for bushes cutting at the other side of town,

temping to go back to bed and try again tomorrow

Yep hopefully first of many. But am wondering if there is any anti freeze in the tractor & how many battery's will be dead

Managed to squeeze a 115 Ah 065 into my Defender - not failed yet.

 

Any 100 Ah tractor battery will fit quite easy and be a big improvement on the standard 75Ah.

A modern landrover will be reluctant to start if any of the glowplugs are defective - check them all.

 

Have had it where we had to go through a pre-heat twice to get a start but always one plug out of action.
