Many thanks to all, I'll give it a go.
By the way, just knocked up a new vac system to be routed through engine bay, using 3/16 copper and a drilled lump of brass as a t piece, with pipes soldered in, will get a pic when I work out how to do it!

o/s hub engaged,.
It had me fooled cos i jacked it up and wheel seemed free (front prop not turning)
But when on ground the front prop was locked so i thought the transfer had not disengaged.
D'oh!
Anywa :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: y, it's now got shiny new avm manuals. Test drove it (daughter greenpig's car) and it all worked a treat. Showed her how to use hubs and 4wd, so.......let it snow!!
In the morning however she'll find her car covered in s***. Ha Ha Ha!!

Showed her how to use hubs etc , THEN took it for a test drive without her. :laugh:
Spun the front wheels in the mud and covered it in mud. She'll be bouncing in the morning when she sees it. Oh joy!

She get's her maintenance for free, so stuff her.
At least she's working now and I've told her to buy her own sodding petrol!
