    +1 on don't take the nut fully off. If you then wobble the wheel left-right it will loosen the splines easily.

    Open Windows Device Manager. Expand the Ports section, and then open Properties. Then in the properties box it will show the cable hardware manufacturer.

    Very clean. Dark blue I think with light interior & Vogue badge on the back. Driver didn’t even turn to acknowledge my wave.

    Yes 10 studs per head, so 20 total. Do shop around just in case. Realsteel were cheapest genuine Arp when I bought mine a few years back, but you never know !

    Exactly. A full HG kit is around £100 depending what you buy. Adding ARP studs & maybe a selection of other nuts & bolts is another £200. At least 10 times less than liners & essentially a full rebuild. If the liners are slipping they...

    How much pressure ? The tank should generally be from 120-140psi when it's full. If the compressor is tired (usually from feeding a leak somewhere), the tank will never fill, and you will get apparently random faults as the ECU tries to...

    Remember many of the nuts & bolts on the V8 heads & block are Imperial due to it's USA origin, so always check. The rest of the P38 is metric.

    When I rebuilt one of mine, I found the prev owner had overtightened the stretch bolts & damaged the block threads. Got the block helicoiled, and used Arp Studs. Much easier to torque the heads properly. The only downside is the cost is...

    Make sure the garage adheres to the LR specs. If you do need to have the heads skimmed, make sure they do both the block & inlet faces by the same amount. This will ensure the inlet manifold fit properly. Valley gasket needs to be done...

    It can also be the front cover gasket weeping into the coolant around the water pump. Definitely worth doing compression test on all 8 cylinders. Take all the spark plugs out first. Also flush & refill the coolant with water, and test again...
