    Unable to bleed brakes

    Anyone got any thoughts on this? I didn't remove the master cylinder to a point where brake fluid comes out, but maybe with the moving it around I need to bleed the master again?

    Unable to bleed brakes

    Welp. I replaced the brake booster and it's worse... Now the first 7/8th of the pedal has no resistance and it won't build pressure, I tried to adjust what looks like an adjuster screw in the brake booster but it has not worked, when the engine is off the brake pedal becomes noticeably better...

    Drinking Coolant / Head Gasket

    So didn't get a chance to look at the water pump, however, Managed to plug in my Pscan to log the current O2 sensor. As explained to me by @pscan.eu the O2 sensor should fluctuate between 0.2V and 0.9V Where 0.44V is a missing / wiring fault and 0.2/0.9 is lean and rich I logged the data and...

    Advice on new engine for Freelander 1 petrol convertible

    Honestly, same goal over here, more for green-laning than "off roading" the freelander would not handle it, but if you're up to the task chuck in the same engine, you could probably get an early pre-2001 engine for cheaper, I've got a guide on how to switch the 1.8 between the 2 versions (Wasted...

    Drinking Coolant / Head Gasket

    Just a quick update on this one, I don't think (fingers crossed) it is still losing coolant, however, I think in the time it was, it has inadvertently fried the O2 Sensor? Would that be possible with enough Coolant going through the exhaust? (On this model I have only the 1 O2 sensor on the...

    Thank you! When pressing on the brake when I am under the dash in the pedal area, I can hear a hissing and it looks like the brown part under the rubber boot is very cracked my pictures are terrible but here you are:

    Unable to bleed brakes

    Upon trying to drive this thing the brakes were still really bad, however I did have a hard pedal after pressing on it a few times when the engine was off, but when driving the pedal would lose the brakes until much lower in the pedal... I found a comment from @Nodge68 a while ago (Cannot find...

    Unable to bleed brakes

    I appreciate the comments @pscan.eu and @Alibro I will be keeping this in mind for the future for sure, however, I was already planning to use custom brake lines for this vehicle (it is not a daily driver or even remotely close to such) so the difference wasn't the biggest deal and plenty...
