aj"What was the cubic inches of the old Go-Devil engine?"r

  Damn, and I just had a M38 Army shop manual in my hands the other day.  I
want to say 134 cu. in. but not sure.  It was interesting reading.  A
reprint from 1991 of the 1945 manual.  $25 I almost bought it just for
kicks.  Complete with the Russian addition in the back of said manual.

If you want to save the cylinder just pick the lock, not that hard as it
doesn't have that many tumblers and they are not bidirectional.  You just
need to keep torsional pressure on the cylinder while you manipulate the
tumblers, deepest one first then work out.  The pressure holds them
released, while you work your way out.  A bit fiddley but not hard to get
the hang of.

Mine was Tuesdays...kinda sucked, meant I had to stick around for the
afternoon.  Lab was the only thing you couldn't skip out on.  Only good
thing is I ended up with the same lab partner each time.  A 19yo chippie
with a propensity for mini skirts and tank tops.  ;-)

How about a waste oil burner?  As long as you have a Land Rover, you'll
have plenty of waste oil. ;-)  Got plans (from the old Mother Earth News)
for a waste oil heater made from an old electric water heater and some old
iron skillets.

Trying to rememnber if its the same as the '94 disco post-march production
british style (confused yet? I sure was).  So, my haynes manual (from over
the pond) says 1994 post march.  And it matches my truck, so thats what I
have.  Anyways, IIRC, it says "before march 1994" and "after march 1994" so
mine should be similar or same.

For the gear shift, I pulled off the trim and rubber mat.  On either side
of the selector is two holes with the lights poking in.  Just pull them
out, and you have the slot bulbs in their wiring.  Just pull out the bulb,
and find a matching one at the store.  Oddly enough, I found it at the
local autozone (chain store of parts in the US.. also advancedparts zone,
or something like that.  Like checker or pepboys).  Anyways, the bulbs are
in I guess notched holders.  As in you just pull out, push in.  No twisting
or anything.

For the enviro control, you just need to take the face off.  Pull off the
three knobs (left side temp, selector, right side temp).  Pull off the cap
on the slider (1 2 3 4).  Under the center knob post, is a philips screw.
Remove that.  Then you just shimmy out the face plate.  Bit of a tight fit
for me (all that spilt coffee, flat white coffee, mt dew, drp, etc, etc
makes it a bit grimey).  Anyways, under the panel is a rather small slot
bulb.  Just pull it out, and again find a replacement that matches.  Found
it at the same place.  If you're in the US, you need to keep an eye on the
"euro bulbs" which are on the shelves.  I found all the replacements for
about everything, except for the clock.  That I had to order
(atlanticbritish.  a few bucks).

Give that a go, lemme know if you need more info, and I'll pull out the
haynes...

I rivet a short length of 25mm (1") nylon strap to the handle, and put a
balliistic nylon quick release clip on it. I use this to cinch the
handle up tight to the climbing bar so that it doesn't rattle when
transported, but it also gives me a quick way to secure the handle when
jacking.
