That is pretty much the way I have done it.

Hi Keith, I am in the final stages now, I just need to connect the fuel lines and the gearbox earth wire. It's been 6 months in the making, just been taking it easy and extremely carefully. Thanks

Yes sounds plausible — although it’s the kind of thing I’d expect a mechanic to check when they were setting up a new clutch. The guy who did it is experienced and trustworthy. Would you expect it to be done at the same time? Maybe I’m wrong...

In that case check each of the ground points. It any are rusty, then clean them up & re-fix. Can't do any harm whil;e you're saving for the Nanocom !! Many years ago, the one on RH front door pillar was going bad on my green P38. The symptom...

Thanks everyone for your assistance. I just didn't want to do it wrong. Thanks for your help 👍

they only fit one way, you cant put the wrong plug in the wrong socket it just wont fit as it the space bars on the side show in your photos

I shall be going off for a 3 day cycling trip to Cambs next month. It has been a rather sudden decision. So I am scrambling to get the delta trike "match fit". The seat fabric has mostly perished and I need to replace it, but they no longer...

Clutch in and engine back on chassis and box. Was just about to tighten the front crankshaft pulley bolt, The book says 340 nm :oops: my wrench only goes to 210, dont think I will be able to borrow one that big, is there another way ? or...

Hi everyone, Need a bit of assistance. I have had to put a new engine and gearbox into my disco 3. I very stupidly forgot to mark off the connection into the ECU there are 3 connections I am unsure about. I would be grateful for any...

Possible there was no free play at clutch master cylinder rod, the result is like someone riding the clutch pedal all the time . Clutch does not fully engage and so slips some and will wear out quick.

I got a quarter of a bucket after two years, I was burning mostly old pallets though and they burn very hot and clean

... I had our chimney swept last week. It had not been done since the log-burner was installed 5 years ago and the chimney liner installed. I was rather surprised at the amount of pure black soot that was pulled out of the liner. Easily 2...

Pressure spikes up to high 50s on straights, then red light comes on. Fault clear, works for a while.

So should anyone else but the accountant "says no"... Responsibility shouldn't be governed by finance 😕

Hi everyone. My clutch went a couple of weeks ago (1993 110 200TDi). It started slipping slightly and within about 30 miles I had almost no power. The vehicle had to be recovered to the local Land Rover workshop. They replaced the clutch with a...

Afternoon all, done all the fluids in the Disco. Hand brake cable & speedo cable to fit oh & the flippen track rod end has a stripped nut & the threads are damaged id forgot about this when I took it apart. I think i have one in the shed. I...

I would hazzard a guess and say they do far more damage than crows. I know in certain parts of London, Paraquets are the hooligan bird due to their numbers.

Do you want some more Marjon got thousands of them

Nah. An FL can't even make it through a small puddle without falling to bits :p

Get a chipper only about £600 worth every penny

Bit like a FL then 😯

I have a friend who is a windscreen fitter, it's well known that various RR products leak through the screen, behind the dash and into the loom and ECUs, requiring replacement. I would sell whatever vehicle you have and buy something decent.

If its a 2a with a cross shaft it's pretty straightforward if I remember correctly. Just gravity bleed ours with no problem, guess you could take the transmission tunnel or floor out if you wanted, pretty straightforward.

I haven't used the Small Claims Track for a while now, but it costs £100 to start the proceedings. OK, if you win you get it back.... I think the company sounded a bit inexperienced but nevertheless polite and offering a free one really was...

It's the seals, they are rubbish, it's quite well documented for years. We fitted "OEM" both leaked almost straight away. Out of principle I made the supplier refund the money. Bought 2 NAK seals, damaged one as they are a very tight fit into...

+1 ^^^^^ If either E0808 or S607 were bad Frank would have many more issues than window switchpack !!

Currently behaving

Canada insisted that JLR replace all such bolts under warranty regardless of vin, age, etc :eek:

Unfortunately, for such a heritage to be lost to economy and bad decisions 😩

Over here, its these that do all the damage... Kea, they are the most amazing animal. Not the most beautiful, but they are awesome and the world's only alpine Parrot.
