Not true. I has a baff regularly ----- at the start of every season. Me oinker takes the second baff, we is environmentally aware, don't waste water. (But he complains that he gets out muckier than when he went in).

Will do. More tomorrow since I dont think I will have the time of day to fix it today. well isnt that true! Biggest ive had in a while xD No problems for the updates, I spent ages looking for similar knock questionaires and all found that theyre...

It's a puzzle for sure. Interesting! Thank you so much for letting us know as you go along

Oops thought it was oil pump, but try with oil pump skew gear and dizzy out first, On the rollers you can get flat spots but not as Loud as your knock more a tap But knock is twice as fast as a single valve operating unless it’s banging top and...

lift pump is out! i havent checked it with the drill with it in. That might be worth a shot to rule out that wasnt in the wrong way to begin with. I think head removal is imminent, i need to redo all the gaskets anyways at this point. Im glad I...

That’s a well thought out test, and you found the knock with dizzy in and lift pump , so keep going and remove ancillaries one at a time , ( lift pump lever on wrong side of cam poss) until sound stops, as you’re in so deep now not far from head...

Sorry i shouldve mentioned, i took out the fuel pump! So that leaves us with: Oil pump Skew gear Dizzy Rollers Followers Push rods. ill check on the rollers. i have the engine pulled so i can easily see now. Specific signs i should look for...

So, update on the tuning front, preliminary of course: Mocal oil cooler, Mocal thermostat, Goodridge braided hoses -> only need to be delivered and installed (the old one is leaking) Tubular manifolds -> the original ones aren't tight anymore...

there is a little bit of side to side play in the conrod on the crank. but nothing in the Z direction (up and down). theyre just solid in there and i cant get them to tick or wiggle.

The previous owner had ripped this car round a field before I had it , had to remove tons of mud . When I opened the eas box its covered in mud stain, so I wouldn't be surprised.

Can you do a straight swap for the SLABS ECU, plug and play as long as it's from a disco with air bags?

have a look i technical archive for Wammers post on checking compressor. It could be duff

On a different forum someone explained the outcome, because they knew someone who did something like this, and they said it was fine, just less acceleration.

And yet I am not increasing the fuel economy with differentials, which I have explained so many times now I have lost count. It is like you didn't read anything that I said. Which once again proves my point about this place...

Morning All. :D Scorcher here already. :) Have a great day. :D

I'll be off to get one today hopefully euro.has.one as getting places is a pain at the moment and need to change the oil today ,is that correct though land rover technicians drain it from that pipe instead of undoing sump or rounding plug head ...

Hello everyone I have recently become an owner of a 1999 4.0 P38 , yesterday the air suspension will not raise , I just have a light on to show I am in access height and a constant flashing light on standard height No warning lights on the dash...

Just be careful the thread isn't stripped out of the aluminum bracket. A dab of thread locker or Loctite on the bolt and it should be OK 👍

Camshaft related, so. Possibilities are: Oil pump Skew gear Dizzy Fuel pump Rollers Followers Push rods I'd start with the rollers, can be seen from the engine side by taking the side plates off.

FL9 the fusible link is the one that had blown. I changed the relay and compressor yesterday, then the FL9 started to look rough again before I took it out to stop the compressor from running. I have had a look quickly under the fuse box and...

It was a Jap Import ;)
