ok so this is fact pre 1993 dose not need to have a cat to pass an mot asked my mot tester also the lambda sensors are in front of the cat so will monitor and maintain the engine management system just fine without the cats, removing the cat will give between 5 and 20 bhp to the engine as there...

take the plugs out and get a socket on the end of the crank and try and turn it both ways if its seized pour a mixture of oil and diesel or heating oil down the bores and leavit for at least a week and try turning it again by hand gently gently though

the saga is finally over weekend before last replaced the lift pump and the oil burner is running sweeter than she ever did. still doing my head in that when i first checked the lift pump she squirted loads but it was her all along evem blagged my bruv into taking his off for me to try only to...

if that dont work your lift pump has gone south, just had a nightmare with mine as first time i checked it fuel would still spray out the union on the filter but still couldnt get it to stay running new lift pump sorted it right out though only £30 too

no doubt about the fuel lines integrity my bruv managed to suck the fuel up the fuel line and get a mouthful without any trouble

would the ecu not be just as happy with a pre 94 uk spec tune select resistor or a gulf state one the 3.9 was just as happy before the cats were put on. i cant find the thread to quote but i read that getting rid of the lambda sensors can help stop the liners slipping when running LPG am i miss...

thanks steve that seems like a starting point at least. i know i can weld bosses in for the lambdas but what do i gain if i keep or bin them

thought i would post this here all suggestions welcome. Ok so here it is i want to put a PHat stainless exhaust on my disco and tubular manifolds. i dont have a clue where would be best to buy one can i get an off the shelf complete system from somewhere or will i have to get one custom...

did u change the oil recently when i worked in a garage the amount of times i done a service and the pressure switch kicked the bucket was loads. as for your pressure readings off the gauge etc they dont sound too out of order really

ok pop quiz where did the TDV8 lump come from is it RR design and build or is it out of a jag..............all iknow about them is one ****ed passed my 3.9disco and i couldnt catch it full stop had to put my ego back in its box:doh:

well they look loads better than a disco thats for sure they just fall down whe u try and put loads of PA gear i them and people over 6 ft:D

lol i see your point but a whole tube on each roof was already overkill and didnt cure it i even cleaned all the surfaces with meths first, would rather fit the pop up sun roofs if the holes are the same

allready been there all round the glass and all round the plastic bit as well and it still pours in like niagra

ok so my V8 ES ****is water in through the sun roofs both of them are shagged and dont open so i was going to bin the pair of them and put the non electgric pop up ones in out of my rotten 200tdi can anybody tell me if the holes are the same etc need to sort this before the dead of winter sets...

well me and my bruv have a fav corner with a dip and naughty camber and we slide out the seats in the rrc 300tdi specially the seat back (end up with my shoulder on the window) yet the same corner faster in my d1 V8 we stay more planted and he dont end up with his shoulder on the window so there...

is the zf box in the p38's the same as the disco 1's zf ive done nearly 3000 miles since the oil change and it seems to be ok at the moment

ok so here it is then the update so far, cleaned the sedementor out and still no joy removed the inspection pannel and pipes were fine going into the tank. Bonus i thought this can only mean its the lift pump so to be sure i thought id wip the lift pump off my bruvs rrc that was a sound runner...

ok so after working some killer shifts and not finishing till after dark i finally got the disco up on the ramps and had a look at the sedimentor ive seen silmiler things on plan equipment but they have been metal and glass combo and easy to take apart so for the thick ones on here I dont want...

ON WOW what are the tell tail signs is there nothing i can do to stop this once it starts

i never said anything about metallic **** in the oil just about the colour which was more like a really dark honey instead of the red it should of been as for metallic stuff there was nxt to nothing stuck to the magnet swarf wise am i still screwed:doh:
