I know, that's why I suggested a Weber.

Looking at it...being in the last third of my life and wanting to enjoy myself...what made me think trying to recover this ferrous mess was a good use of my time? Sanity check over and thank you!

I’ve been green laning since I got my first Landy in the early 90’s. I started with some friends who were members of a local off road club which was mostly into trials. We went in groups of two or three and didn’t tear up the lanes or drive off...

Having the rostyles swapped over to the wolf wheels on the ninety. 😁

Or you could spend some money here. https://www.hnjengineering.co.uk/pages/products/hnj2286su4cyl/hnj2286su4cyl.html

Welcome to the forum. I would suggest a Webber is the most affordable option. Rebuilt carbs are pretty expensive last time I looked. Don't be tempted by the Chinese Zenith, we had one and it was total rubbish. We then got a good 2nd hand Zenith...

I would replace it.

Why do people need to be told how to behave? All sorts of behaviour is available to be seen on the Internet, some just fine some not, doesn't make it an excuse. The group in the video know full well they were driving where they shouldn't and...

You can have fun and enjoy yourself without being an arse and driving illegal vehicles illegally.............. don't you think?

I used a bit of grease on the washer to hold it onto the injector when I did the 200tdi, maybe you can do the same? ^^^^ beat me to it.

Before someone else says it, it's a Ninety not a 90. It's probably/possibly/most likely a Discovery 200td engine, maybe!

Fit a new roof, well 2nd hand, look a lot better than some alloy sheet.

I hate welding on the chassis…I ain’t no welder.

Some of them have them for timing, I think they line up with the "wrong" slot in the flywheel. Ours doesn't have it, maybe the earlier engines have it? Pretty sure it's on one of TrailerFitters 200tdi videos.

Funny how I did both Ebay links the same and they came out different. Thanks for letting me know, whether I remember or not is a different matter.

my link includes crank puller tool which doubles up for using to take the pump out without removing the belt.

You need to buy this. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/405146123052

Spent a hateful day welding the chassis on the Ninety, another hateful day to look forward to tomorrow. Why is it when welding on a bit of scrap metal you get a lovely weld, get underneath with your head wedged between propshaft and exhaust and...

https://www.alpine-restorations.co.uk/ I am thinking about looking into this lot for the Ninety when the funds are in place. The price is competitive for a Defender, sure they could qoute for a D2. I have no experience of their work though.

Better to close part of the year of it keeps it open overall 👍

Seasonal winter TRO, open from the end of April. The surface is pretty compact so even in the winter I doubt it would get damaged, sensible compromise though.

Very sensible and considerate driving at all times. Note a couple of lanes situated on the 'gallops' it is actually sign posted "NOT" to follow the track but to spread out to avoid making ruts so not to risk injury to horses. Just thought I would...

As a sort of update I emailed the Glass Chairman who via the local rep, has passed the video and as much info as possible to the relevant authorities. What comes of it, if anything, I do not know.

Just had an email from my insurer about my renewal - it's due early next month. I was quite pleased to see that it's £311, for a 2006 TD5 model for 12,000 miles a year. That's good for the current climate. The company has a silly name - 'Quote Me...

So, I don't know the answer do that, never had a 300tdi.

Welcome to the forum

Ok, the transfer box seals hadn't been done so I would take that with a pinch of salt. Have a look at the cambelt housing front cover and see if that's been off recently. Cambelt only really becomes a problem if it snaps, most likely you will be...
