    Disco 1 White smoke/steam from dipstick hole

    How do! About 18 months ago I parked my 3.9 V8 Disco up after a day out at a pay and play day. She got a bit beat up so was SORN'd and such. Decided to blow the dust of the old girl last weekend, would you belive that she fired straight up with no issues! well, maybe one. When checking the oil...

    Rear Diff. replacement

    Hey Fella's, I am going to be replacing the rear diff unit on my Discovery 1 V8. I have a couple of questions if you wouldn't mind indulging me: 1) I want to replace the nuts that hold the diff assembly onto the axel but I cannot find replacements. Are there 'offical' replacments or just...

    what amp/hour battery for disco 1 300tdi?

    As far as I remember from my school days, amp/hr is the ammout of energy it will deliver at a constant rate before it reaches a voltage that is considered 'dead', for a 12v battery I beleive this is 10v. So if a 100amp/hr battery ran a 3amp 'thingy' it would take 33.33hrs to go flat. CCA is the...

    Disco 300tdi ES Aircon removal

    I removed my aircon with the plan to fit a 2nd alternator where the pump was. It also made more space behind the grill for a winch as I took the compressor and rad out to! I went to a local aircon place and the guy only charged me £10 to discharge the system of gas.

    whats wrong with your landy ??

    I know the blanking plugs to which you refere. They do not actually do anything, my 300tdi does not have them and she runs fine. I personally think they're something added by these off road modders. Real shame really it spoils a nice engine. Anyway, I did try it once through one of the orifices...

    whats wrong with your landy ??

    I know what that is. There will be 8 holes in your engine. The ones I have seen are between 3.5 to 4.9 cubic centimeters. The best way to fix it that I have found is take the top off and fill them with that expanding foam stuff. When you do it though be carefull not to let too much ooze out the...

    Ferric oxide based self removing floor panels!

    I appriciate the cheaper gas hint but I'll stick with the Argo Shield as I need all the help I can get! The weld you guys were looking at was a butt weld 2nd attempt. If you look to the top of that image you can just make out my 1st go and I blew right through. Unfortunatly I did not get chance...

    Ferric oxide based self removing floor panels!

    I have a pair of thickish leather gardening gloves and to be honest they are a little short. I think when I order the spare tips and shrouds i'll check in a pair of long MIG gloves and an apron.

    Ferric oxide based self removing floor panels!

    I am, I thought it would be better to have both hands free and be able to see where the tip is before pressing the trigger.
