There are 2 types of 3 pin flasher relays.
It is down to the terminal positions which one you will need.
A wiring diagram will point out what wires connect to what terminal.

Sorry, just realized its a 2 pin

Having retired when I was 56 after running my own business for 32 years, If i was in your position I would be looking to get a stress free job for however many years you need to keep working for that pays enough for you to get by.
You will make more money on a regular basis with no stress filling ...

Try and pick up a used Esab mig if you want a good sturdy reliable machine.
I bought a new Esab 160A mig around 32 years ago.
It was used daily in a busy garage welding up old rusty cars for about 12 to 13 years before the rust proofing / anti corrosion started to get better and then it started ...

If you do decide to go for one, be aware the repair costs are high.
Unless you have the diagnostic kit to clear and reprogram new components to the car yourself,then expect to pay a premium.
I sold mine after having to replace the air suspension compressor and the complete electronic handbrake ...

I had a 2.7 v6 diesel disco3, and it was thristy. I would think the v8 petrol will just drink the fuel.
I would be more concerned with the cost of road tax and would check before buying either as you may get a shock.

I am sorry for your loss and know of Andrew and the search that had taken place when he went missing.
Very sad news and a very much liked guy locally.

The main 2 things I would be checking for an oil leak is the oil filter(possibly rusted through to a pinhole) if its been lying around for years and the oil pressure switch.
May be something really simple and would be my first checks

The 1 ltr 3 cylinder will have to be revved really hard to get it up hills and will feel nippy when sinking your right foot, it will show up for its let down power wise a few weeks of owning it.
If you can afford it, buy the 1.5

A cheap obd code reader will only read engine management codes, it wont give you access to the abs system.
You will have to fork out a bit more for a more expensive scanner if you want access to other systems other than engine management.
It is more than likely one of the abs wheel speed sensors ...

Was going to suggest the same, brass screw into the strands and then solder wire onto screw. Finish of with some epoxy, heat shrink for insulation

Thanks, starting to feel old now

I worked on these beuties when serving my time as an apprentice.
Biggest piles of shit, although quite desirable when they came out.
Few local farmers and estate workers moved from their simca vans to these, but they didn't last long and most were replaced quite swiftly with subaru ...

No Talbot was well put together. They made Fiat and Lancias look galvanised! But we can credit them with the birth of the Land Rover Discovery!
