Brilliant, thanks Blackburn, that's a great help to me. Rich.

Good shout on the jets, not a great deal of difference, but like you say might as well get them correct whilst its stripped down. The air filter is connected as Hicap Phill says with a plastic type elbow.

Will do. The throttle cable arrangement, done presumably when the new engine was fitted, is a right old lash-up, proper health robinson so that will be sorted at the same time.

Cheers, Managed to decipher the tag, seems it is a 32/34 dmtl from a 2.5.

Hello All, I'm the new owner of a 1973 petrol SWB pick up (couple of pics in the intro section) having collected it last weekend. It's now time to address some of its short-comings and hoping someone can confirm a few items for me? 1.I'm aware it has had a new engine fitted, with the engine...

Still a little bit up in the air at the moment being honest. Have really wanted it to be a 110 for a long time, but then I keep looking at 90's - but there is still something about the 110 that draws me back! It's just going to be something that catches my eye I think, but then again, the really...

Hello everyone, my name is Richard and have recently joined. I'm landrover-less at present, but hoping to buy in the near future (just waiting for an expected payout to come my way :D). I've been wanting one for a number of years now, but the usual things kept getting in the way (kids, work...
