I'm also wondering if there's a short somewhere as the feed to the coil side of the heater relay is showing continuity to the earth for some reason?

They do tend to rattle a bit when testing in landy without load through the gears with no prop connected but once on the road mine was ok after rebuilt gearbox. You should be able to select gears and turn brake drum gearbox off engine

Pockets on tables at pubs and clubs are often bigger because owners ask for this. The more often peeps pot balls the happier they is. At the moment this is a test table to see if mdf will bend causing problems with play, before eye cover it in...

I have a Freelander 2 diesel 2004 LHD, bought some 2 years ago, and it's been off the road in a garage on and off for half that period. I must say it's the worst car I have ever come across. But I'm stuck with it, at least for one more year...

What ones have you got? I expect I could make something to suit. I will have a look and drawing an L shaped with with the same detail as the front. Might look quite good

Yeah pulley was just about turning that was the noisey bit bearings completely shot at

I think most of us in this situation would have bulkhead, clutch, brake and steering controls, engine and box/transfer box in place. then run and drive the truck a bit even if it is only a short way. In low box you can go through all the gears...

The good thing is that each fault manifests itself in exactly the same way, the stat fails into a blinking and switching on-off on-off over and over again mode. (Just occasionally one will then start to work properly). But as I can swop stats...

Just done the same thing. Did you manage to get it back on?

Gary, I think I am going to have to start a PM with you as this will be boring for peeps not involved. I'll put up pics, wiring diags and notes on what I have discovered with a meter, for both sorts of stats and maybe you will be able to help me...

Hi mate, and thanks for this. What I should have mentioned and forgot peeps don't always remember what I post in such detail is that the system is an underfloor heating system. NOT a WET one. Each room has heating coils or cables in a special...

Definitly need more information regarding what tyres for a towbar height and what trailer you are trying to tow that needs such a low hitch. And maybe a picture of your current setup. After that will be better placed to give advice. My towbar is...

So just over 3 tonnes towed weight. As you said, it should have been OK and it was. This is exactly what we bought our Disco 1 for and then the Disco 2. Great towing vehicles long distance. :):):):)

I keep all his plumbing, heating and gas working so we’ve become friends over the years. He’s genuinely looked after me with this one. Landrover specialist came down and serviced it as well as changed a few bits over like the injector loom and...

Amazing the belt didn't squeal!

You forgot the axke breathers as well

Think man! Without one how else do you run all the cables up to the roof lights you don’t need! I got my original mushroom top on galvanised and am planning on doing the same with the one for the station wagon. I just need a new tube as the one...

Hey Artic2, I used the good old fashioned phone and called Austin from Bell engineering to sort one out in the end. To do it yourself you would would need a proper locking tool to withstand at least a 1.5m bar to torque up the pinion preload

I once towed a disco 1 on a trailer weighing a ton with my 200tdi Disco 1 55 to 60 mph all the way home from Cornwall (260 miles) and it never bothered it, towed straight and true

And this! Just feel SO sorry for parents and kids that have to go to "academy Trust" schools. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/uk-news/what-hell-going-on-parents-29063237 NO teacher packs a job in that is paying the rent, and stuff...

Glad you are getting it sorted propah. Pockets on Pool tables are far too big to get games over quicker and more money in the machine. I think you need to relate the size of the pocket to the size of the ball, more than width from distance. If...

Think they been done in round bar,vertical. Do same design as fronts with fold round tops & sides. My lights are different & no standard light guards fit

I'm not saying this is the case here but, I've known of 'em having several vehicles standing on their land, they will not sell 'em cheap, they'd rather let 'em sit there and rust away.:rolleyes:

Gottid a propper set from cue and case online. Aramith. Made from fenolic resin. Got the pocket templates oft the web. If yer imagine firing from one corner diagonal to the other, on a 12 foot table, the pockets are this big in yer vision (____)...

Here you go . . . . . From GEMS Nanocom Guide From RAVE HEVAC Description:

Disco sport and d5 are replacements. They have a family image but they're different vehicles when you compare.

As per an earlier thread, i have got the rebuilt engine sitting on the bare chassis and running. Sounds OK. Just in the process of sorting out the cooling system at the moment. My plan is to then stick the rebuilt gearbox on the back of the...

That rings a bell. The GEMS is much more closely tied in to the BECM. I have a vague memory it wouldn't engage but Marty realised the diesel and Thor are different and tied a wire in somewhere or grounded it and it all started working.

excellent. have done the same and it goes on fine. will test next time i get the engine going (sorting out the cooling system at the moment). thanks

So, the Vent D'Autun is blowing it's guts out. Gusts are knocking all sorts of things over. It isn't quite a cold as it has been but it has been raining on and off a lot. More is expected every day over the enxt 10 days. :(:(:( Just taken...
