Hi all, Just noticed today that when I stop the rangey, the servo hisses from where the master cylinder mounts, I presume this is not normal and means a leak in the servo diaphragm, as as far as I'm aware there isn't a gasket between the master cylinder and the servo? Anyhow before I strip it...

This is a full LPG kit I removed in 2010 from a running twin carb rangey with the intention of fitting it to mine, however I think it would be a shame to spoil my rangey as it is a very original 1971 and I don't drive it every day so don't really need it. Anyway It includes an Emmegas Vaporiser...

Bleeding eck! That's some mods, what gearbox have you got with the LS400?

...Is a very valid point... I just start doing minor jobs and get carried away, all this started with a radiator recore, which led to changing all hoses, which led to replacing the water pump, which led to braking one of the long bolts and removing the timing cover to drill it out, which led to...

I believe all early v8's to 1976 like mine use an oil pump which has smaller gears (not as deep but otherwise identical, after 1976 they went to the larger pump which is identical but a bit deeper, giving more flow rate, this pump was used up until the serpentine engines I think, so probably...

I'd love to know this too, I have considered welding my original rostyles to take tubeless tyres.

Just another quick question, Has anyone rebuilt their early V8 oil pump using one of the kits to give more capacity like the later engines? Mine is still the early small capacity pump and seems in good condition, is it worthwhile upgrading? Cheers,

Slack as in hanging off the crank sprocket on its trailing side and about an inch of movement, never made a noise or slapped the case though, also pulled like a train, no power steering and a wheezy alternator and standard skiing tyres helps I suppose. will sort some pic's for you soon. Was...

Thanks mate, all in all a fairly easy job then, how is it worn out at 43k??

Hi all, Little problem with my 1971 3.5, I decided to replace water pump, as I was doing the rest of the cooling system, snapped one of the bolts and had to remove timing cover, found that the chain was slack (only 41k on engine!). My question is, is it best to replace the just the chain, as...

Just a thought, have you made sure you have a really good earth to the ECU and engine as the injectors are earth switched?

Time to sell the Freelander, I bought it for my mum about 2 years ago from its original owner with suspected IRD/VCU Issues at 90K, I replaced the VCU with a genuine GKN New unit, and a recon IRD, receipts are included with sale, these have only covered 7K in the 2 years we have had it. My...

Your dead right my apologies, made my day anyway, my 75 rangey will soon be worth more! Cheers :D:D
