Engine fitting

Not much of a mechanic, so no idea what's possible - maybe someone here
can help?

I've killed two 2.5TD engines in my 90 now, and they're getting
expensive. I have a 2.25 NAD available, but not sure what out of - a
series vehicle is as much as I know.

What are the chances of it fitting, and how will it be in a 90?

Any tips, hints, suggestions or fitting offers considered )

Yes but if it's anything like my old series IIA the 2.25 will run
trouble-free for about 18 years, whereas the 2.5 turbo engine I replaced it
with lasts about 1,000 miles before blowing another head gasket for no
obvious reason.

Hello Andy.
I have 2.25d in my landy90 this had replaced the 2.25 petrol.
The previous owner must have had economy bug. On the motorway I average
about 48 to 53ish mpg uphill, that's with a good curry. As to fitting
one in, I understand their are special kits available. For mileage it
works out as quarter tank every 80 miles for mine. It can be a nippy
bugger sometimes when wants to be. The only major thing I have had done
was the cylinder head gasket. Hope this helps.
