Charming!

Apparently the bearings had disintegrated and spread themselves around the transferbox :mad: brilliant!! NOT! Well at least she fixed! so I cant wait to go :crazy_driver:

You can still email the seller on Fleabay :)

Is that any better lads?

Well, I don't actually know what was up with her. When I bought her the chap told me he had fitted a stop as she was jumping out of high in to low so was in permenant high. Also when putting in the overdrive nothing would happen apart from the revs going through the roof. Bloke told me he never...

Isnt she sweet? [/URL][/IMG]

Ok for those who are interested (if any). I just had the bill from the workshop £621.99. Im offshore and the girlfriend took the phone call. So I asked her what they did to it "erm, they fixed it?" :rolleyes: came the reply. So the good news is she back on the road, hopefully I will find out...

Haha she has plenty, its in a bottle in the back :)

Well i was surprise when i looked at the sump as there was no oil leaking, could this be a real land rover? Im thinking i might install a small oil tank above the engine that leaks so when anyone looks under it it looks like its leaking and thus a proper landrover ;) And she may be old but she...

Kizzeh, you can make gin and tonics if you got Lemons :) Dr.Evil found a great landy place in Ashburton. Old feller in there been fixing Landys for past 50 years. He just said "sounds simple enough, just bring her in" Result!

So just phoned Torquay transmissions who said "Right well, we'll just put in another gear box. It'll be £700 plus labour" :eek::eek::eek:

I don't think its been touched for at least 2 years (the last owner didn't do much to it)

This one yes (plz forgive my ignorance I'm still learning)

Prob best done tomorrow, This fine whisky will not help in my diagnosis ;)

Yes selects fine. When i let the clutch out it sounds like its not meshing. When i put her in reverse...no probs.

Same, bit of biting, bit of forward movement lots of grinding/crunching.

Hi I picked up my new (well new to me) 101 ambulance In Edinburgh yesterday to drive back down to Devon. All was going swimmingly until i got about 80 miles from my start point when i heard a slight brief grating/grumbling sound. A further 2 miles with nothing then a very unhealthy sound and no...

So was about to tear down the top half of the engine and got to step 3 Step one. Depressurise fuel rail Step two. Disconnect battery Step three. Unplug and remove MAF Only MAF was not plugged in. :mil89: Bang head against bumper a few times. Plug relays back in. Reconnect battery. Start er...

Thanks Adam, will let you know how i get on. Hopefully just a injector wire crossed or maybe injector wire broken.

Spark Plugs? didnt move em, or do you mean the lead 4 the injectors? Im going to check the injector plugs at the weekend (im not driving her at the mo) to make sure i put them in the right order, i should have done as i put labels on everything! Hmmmm
