I'm told that some compressors do have an O ring in conjunction with the piston seal. so what you found might be original. I've done a few compressors and never had one, but there are detail variations out there- brass or steel securing rings for instance.

The spec of a Turner or V8 Dev engine is the same, the only difference is the price and I think V8 Dev are a bit cheaper.
Turners use a different style of liner to V8 Devs. I think the material is different as well. Turners is ductile (drawn) iron.
Turner TH liners have an O ring seal housing machined into the bottom of the liner making the liner/ block interface totally sealed.
Price is the key difference though. Turners around £1500 more than V8 Devs for a short engine.

Is that like the "Dirty Protests" that were so popular in prisons in the 70's?
You going to add an image hosting area then Gordon?

No internal pictures (so no way of proving it is what it's supposed to be), cash on collection, around £50 less than used ones go for.
I wouldn't.....
They normally drop to -40 when faulty, so yours is only very nearly faulty :)
Just check the airline connections in/ out of the EAS dryer (top and bottom). It's bolted to the airbox so you've likely just pulled one out.

Easy peasy- just install a kin huge diesel generator

If you haven't already got it, download and install RAVE (factory workshop manual) from

One sign of a failed/ failing transfer ECU is that the indicators can stop "ticking".
As it stopped working after you had the transfer box out to change the chain, odds are you've either broken a cable. forgotten to plug in a cable, or damged something during that process though.

Definitely not that one!
That's an HSE, not Vogue SE, with "1 Lady Owner" which, depending on your view of JC might be right!
I don't think I've ever seen such effusive waffle in a car sales ad though
If you look in the Downloads and Support section of the Nano website you'll see a Technical Info sheet for each of the car's systems. Gilbertd's post above is an extract from the HEVAC one.
They're worth downloading and having handy if you're using the Nano to interact with the various ECUs
Have you checked with Nano to see what temp it's reporting?
The fault you've reported isn't the aspirator. That's there to sample cabin temperature. It is supposed to spin all the time the aircon's running.
Cleaning it out is a good thing though as its fundamental to the HEVAC knowing what heat cabin's at.
Heater core temp sensor is on the input hose down by the heater matrix. Main purpose in life is to not allow the aircon to blow demanded warm air until there's enough heat in the coolant to provide warm air. That way the system doesn't (shouldn't) send an icy breeze up your leg when you first start the car on a cold morning!
By the way- what diagnostics are you using? I'm a bit puzzled by the term heater core temperature sensor, as it isn't referred to as that.
There's a heater coolant temperature sensor (one I've talked about above) and an evaporator temperature sensor, which sticks into the airstream coming out of the evaporator.

Oi, there is nothing wrong with an oil burner! Mine gave me 32mpg coming down to London yesterday! A bit better than the 18-19 i used to get with the Beast.
You didn't mention that your oil burner isn't a P38 though Shep :)
Welcome Hoppy!
If their starter motors are as good as their Cognac...
I fitted one of these £65.00- lasted a year and went phut. Replaced FOC by supplier. Still working

I think my post has the answers to all of your questions! GJP had it backwards- GEMS doesn't spin over, Thor will...
Thor will turn over if immobilised but GEMS won't.
As GJP says- Maxifuses?
Put 12v +ve into the small pin on starter solenoid, or, if brave connect across from main power cable to the spade terminal
Usual precautions about in Park, brakes on, and playing with high current items
Nah- it's not on LPG :)
