How long does it take to...

Replace the o-rings in the EAS valve block on a P38?
EAS Valve Block (http://rangerovers.net/repairdetails/airsuspension/valveblock/valveblock.html)
The pipe at the front of the block in my car leaks (Is this the one that goes to the air tank?) and it seems like it's not a big issue to replace all the o-rings. About how long should it take to do such a thing and where would I get the o-rings. It appears Ron has done all the hard work with the sizing, but the chances of getting the right sizes o-rings at bunnings is pretty slim.

Any info would be appreciated. Cheers

$80 will see you obtaining a Gj kit of Orings or you can order them direct from almost any hydraulic or pnumatics place.

I havent replumbed one yet but at a WAG 2 hours should be plenty.

Yep, 2 - 3 hours is about all it takes.

While you've got it in pieces its a good idea to do the teflon seal in the compressor piston head as well.

Also a manual type controller will help you de pressurise the system and also allow you to test it all works before hooking back up to the ecu.

Happy to give you a hand if you need it.

BTW - I bought all the bits and pieces from

www.rover-renovations.com (http://www.rover-renovations.com)

All the right sizes and quantities pre marked and free instructions to boot.

And I have the manual controller to let you test it all out prior to plugging the expensive ECU back into it and seeing where you let the smoke out.. :)

[adm333]

So you did finish the manual controller ? Got any pics ?

When we get a corresponding spare minute we should finish the air plumbing on my car !

yeah I did a thread on it...

busy this weekend but yep Im up to finish up the replumb of your EAS...

did you decide how you wanted to tackle the layup?

[adm333]

No I hadn't given it much more thought.

I'll look for the thread.
