I'd hate to walk to the Ginger Factory but it's not that far to drive, probably about 20 minutes at highway speed (100kph) Are you from Qld originally or did they emigrate out this way?

Bare foot right?

You can keep the -40 :eek: Trouble with the +40c here is it usually includes a humidity reading near enough to liquid air :D 80%+ Humidiity is not uncommon.

Temperature extremes can wreak havoc on batteries ours are from 0-40c :eek:

Jump started Wally on the weekend with some very heavy duty cables and replaced the earth strap, cleaned up the starter cable and connections on the solenoid and brush lead to the starter, also removed the leads to the glow plugs and cleaned them all up with Contact cleaner and a wire brush...

Thanks Darren & Frank. Darren would you happen to know the gauge and length of both the starter and earth cables. I might as well just replace them both as they are no doubt factory issued and would seem cheap insurance. Would you happen to have any details on a replacement starter if the...

Hi Folks, Long time lurker, first time posting. I have an L1500 which is a little champion; a friend called him Wally and it stuck. Use it mainly to slash a 5 acre block with a 4' Slasher; not quickly but we get the job done. He's been running like a dream since I picked it up until the last...
