While the steering rack change didn’t stop the hydraulic leaks, a new hydraulic octopus (leak back harness) should stop the fluid loss.
With dark nights upon me, and little car-playing opportunities available, I look back at Rustival2, one of my highlights of the car year.
With the engine running and exhaust installed, the hydraulic leaks were starting to spring up. The worst was the steering rack leak!
Engine running, and rather than continue deafening myself with the raw tones of the XU9j4, exhaust installation is the order of the day!
The pace was picking up at the start of 2024, and XPO seemed to be becoming driveable. It just needed a cooling system and drive shafts—or perhaps a bit more?
After 15 years of standing, XPO finally has a running engine. But how leaky are the hydraulics after all these years?
Almost a year ago today, the engine installation on XPO was completed. In this article, we take a look at how the installation was achieved.
In a slight segway from getting the engine running in XPO, this article looks at some of the smaller welding repairs that have been completed.
Only a few years after starting, the 16v gearbox was overhauled and bolted back onto the engine, ready for installation.
