Nope. I do It myself or dump them. New ones aren't that expensive and it is easy to test.

I have 7j rims from a p38 on my Disco.. no problem getting decent knobblies. If I only could afford it

I like a bit of Miller's additive in my cooling system

Yes, especially the top one on the LT77 bellhousing

Your drawings are fantastic. I have started a collection. PS if there is something you haven't got yet ask please. The only thing I miss is the electrical library (where the plugs are lurking) for the Disco 3

I call the acoustic cover the warm woollen cap. A bad idea in a warm country or a hot summer. It also stops you seeing the oil leak from the injector harness. Best kept in your shed to cover the spuds

No the ATF goes in the full tank. You can start with 500ml and if nothing else you have cleaned out the whole dystem

+1 for the pulley. Pain in the neck, they aren't cheap. I feel for you.

5w30 is for a very cold climate. If it get worse when warm might be your oil is to thin.. depending on where you are. In the old days LR used to put a table depending on your climate in the books. Now the just write 5w30 regardless well that sure doesn't apply here And ATF has always worked well...

You are right. Thought it \as alarmed.

Of course they can be rebuilt! You need patience, 4 bearings and a new oil seal. Instructions are in many Fred's here

Use 1 litre of Dextron 2 or 3! That is for a full tank. It is also a great additive to clean the whole system. It really sounds like injectors. I don't understand your compression I'm afraid. How much in bars?

You don't need a fob. Mine is in a drawer and it was for another lock I think. Do the EKA once, then turn the alarm off. Once and for all. Make 3 times sure all alarm options are gone. Make a copy of your key. You still have central locking on the dash and unlocking or locking twice.

Congratulations.:) Wonderful find. There is nothing like a 1983 v8 bubbling along. I had one of the last 1983 109 V8s, Sally nº ever 109 v8 Stage one and now a 1983 Rangie.

Roughness up to 1-1.2 % is acceptable. In doubt.. does it still have the egr? That can become very ugly on Freelander injectors

Buying the plug is not possible here so a while ago I bought a pack of 10 round pins on fleabay and had them sent out with other stuff from Europe. It helps to warm them slightly and put some resin behind them when you are done. Donut yourself repair for the shield is aluminium foil or...

OK then we need to know the pressure. -> Live values, EAS...

while it is a good idea to have a pressure tester, my other supect would be the oil thermosthat in your filter adapter. http://new.lrcat.com/#!/1231/29584/30331/2327/30616 nº 2. it might also be full of gunk. then if that is not the culprit get into the dirty stuff and do your oil sprinklers

That is the easiest way to check the sensors which he asked about. As to SVS that is easy to do and a good start

You are right it has little in common with a defender it is a series 3
