    My new fob

    I have finally found a one button 433mhz fob for my truck. Tried to synch it to the car yesterday but didn't work. Should the light on the fob stay on when the button is pressed? Mine flashes once.

    Is it possible??

    I presume you mean Bodylogic I was shown this by a pal who is considering it.

    Who's a clever boy then!!!

    That sounds like a plan! I'm an accountant (but don't tell anyone). I'm not supposed to be handy. Actually I fair pretty well in the DIY stakes so I'm hoping to pick it up reasonably quickly.

    Who's a clever boy then!!!

    My old Disco has just passed it's MOT:D:D:D:D:D. I think of all the used cars I've had (and there have been lots) this is the first time one has passed first time. And it has been all my own work. In recent months I have changed discs and pads, new head gaskets, replacement hoses, redone the...

    door check

    The screws are captive. You loosen them to adjust the setting of the door. The weight of the door is........"Bloody Heavy" Take the door off by removing the hinge pin.

    changing dashboards/centre consoles

    If I remember correctly (not always the case) the centre console can be moved back a little to provide a bit more depth for the hu allowing the connectors to sit behind. I am sure I have read threads on this somewhere when I changed the head unit in mine. There isn't a huge amount of space in...

    Vacuum switch - Water valve

    Problem solved. It shouldn't be there, a previous owner must have added it with the LPG conversion, it is coming out.

    Vacuum switch - water valve

    Thanks James. Problem solved, it is coming out, no point in having unnecessary stuff under the bonnet. What is there as standard causes enough trouble!

    1997 disco - clock removal?

    You can remove the clock by pushing two credit cards in either side, they release the clips. Don't break the cards you need them for buying the bulb.

    Vacuum switch - water valve

    I think I have found the answer!! I assumed it was a standard part as it is in Rave (see pic). But the Rave section on heating does not differentiate between engines, I think that this valve was only fitted to Mpi engines, can any one confirm this? If this is the case I shall probably remove...

    Vacuum switch - water valve

    Thanks Discool I have the FPR connected to the plenum at the moment, but this other pipe bugs me, I'm wondering if there should hsve been a T-piece. I can't find anyone else who has the switch. It is in Microcat and Rave so it's not something that's been added. James I can't find...

    Vacuum switch - water valve

    95 Disco 3.9 V8Efi Can anyone tell me where the vacuum pipe from the water valve switch should go to?. It's the one arrowed in the picture. And if it goes in the back of the plenum where does the fuel pressure regulator vacuum pipe go?

    lpg problems. . . . knowledge needed.

    Your tanks will only fill to a maximum of 80%, so you are using 56l at most. This is giving you at worst 10mpg by my reckoning. What sort of mpg do you get from petrol? You should expect to get 10-15% less on LPG. I think you need this info to narrow down the search area. Also don't forget...

    Heater matrix system bleed cap

    I have seen lots of references to the "Heater matrix system bleed cap" in various threads on V8s. I have a 95 Disco V8 3.9efi serpentine should there be one on it? If so where is it? I cant see one!! I am about to flush the system through completely and would like to know I can fill it again...
