hammer and chisel did the trick.and from my guess its about a 45ml?thanks

problem sorted it was a clogged up injector,thanks for all the help guys

if you torque them up it stops the springs from twisting(bad thing)and also help protect your bushes from splitting(also a bad thing).so my advise is to torque them up ;)

does anyone know the size of socket i need for the wheel bearing nut on a series 3? thanks

i found my diesel on preloved.co.uk, £550 with mot you might be lucky and find one on there.im 22 and paying £400 fully comp with lancaster insurance.

reet its not the thermo thats working fine.sent some injector cleaner through the system and its picked up a little so it must be a fault in the fuel sytem some where,ill check it all over tomo and let you know if i find it.

you know get some fluffy dice in it and maybe some animal print seat covers there great for making it cosy:D(get the paint out and give it coat or two if your feeling generous);)

ill have a look in the morn and see if thats it.thanks

hi all,im new to land rovers just bought a series 3 88" diesel for £550 owned it for a month and spent around 700 on just parts mainly on the springs(parabolics) and shocks(procomp)and new set of rims and every day a new problem shows its face so as a newbie to landies i would say a rebuild...

ok overdrive is engaged so its not that but have noticed a gap between the exhaust manifold and exhaust big enough to fit a pound coin in all the way around could this be my problem with the lack of go in the landy???

how would i know if the overdrive has disegaged without the lever?would i see any gaps or do i just try and shove it towards the gear box?:confused:or am i completly off mark here?

ive got overdrive, when i changed the rear springs i accidentally allowed the axel to drop almost to the floor do you think this could of disegaged the overdrive as i dont have a lever connected to engage a disegage it?regards

now then one problem sorted(touch wood)anyone got advice on the lack of power issue?? it would be much appreciated.as im a complete novice when it comes to diesel land rovers. :confused2:

just done your checks and found 2 bearings need doing,i dont have a clue why i didnt think of that,so ill get them sorted asap thanks for the help
