Indeed..!! I thought they might have taken your diff that I was gonna bring back last night but thats probably too bloody heavy for them :-D

Apologies I never made it last night, fired up the Rangie to come over, noticed the tailgate was ratteling, went to slam it and realised some little scrote has screwdrivered the lock and nicked a load of stuff, not impressed!! If anyone is offered or hears of any offroady stuff, red highlift...

oh crap I didn't think of that.... filler cap doesn't lock so yeah its possable ain't it....

Knock sensor circuit is now built and tested, I'll set the timing using that as soon as i've sorted another issue. If it works well and if anyone else wants to use it, as long as its looked after, don't have a problem loaning it out. I'll report back and let you know how I get on.

Morning all, I've noticed a really weird gel almost looks like wall paper paste appearing in both fuel filters and the loat bowls in the carb. I've cleaned the filters and carb out a few times now but it just reappears. This is obviously causing running issues as it jams up the jets, blow...

I often get 18-22 mpg out of my 3.9 with a webber/edelbrock 500 fitted. If your after power and economy you can fit 3L BMW TDI (nice engine, smooth and powerful mid 30s MPG if I remember correctly) or Lexus 4.3 V8 (In the process of this now hoping to get 300+ BHP & high 20s MGP). Neither are...

After a bit more research (and a few phone calls) the engine in question is a 36D. 3.9L v8 EFI 9.35:1 (high) compression ratio oringinally from an automatic Disco. Been doing a bit of thinking this aft and seeing as there are so many different variations on ignition timing, play in...

I'll test you winch for you when I get stuck :D

I'm sure its out of a 95 / 96 disco. Will there be anything written on the block to determine if its high or low compression?

They were the 2 books I was refering to. One says 3 Deg BTDC and the other says 6 Deg BTDC...

Good, I'm glad you said that. Ok so now I want to check / set the timing. So far I've read that it should be set anything from 16 Deg BTDC to 6 Dec ATDC Also one book says 3 Deg BTDC & another says 6 Deg BTDC..... WTF?!?! Remove vacuum advance pipe. Get engine upto temp. Set tickover to 800...

Hi Guys, I've read loads of contradicting information on this subject and I just wanted to double check I've got it right..... Engine is a 3.9 V8 EFI. Vacuum advance unit definatly works, if i suck on the pipe timing is advanced. Bob weights definatly works, if i rev the engine (vacuum...

Hey Jai, Yeah sounds fine, having the old one is not a problem. Would it be a 2 or 4 pin? I take it you wouldn't have an LSD or pinned one?

My rear diff is getting rather sloppy, just wondered if anyone has a good diff for a range rover classic. Preferably 4 pin, will pay extra for locker or LSD and or pinned. Can collect and pay at pub meet... I assume mine is a 10 spline, don't mind swapping to 24 spline but I'll need half shafts...

Roundhill sounds very interesting, haven't been there before. The punch thing sounds like great fun! Did someone mention they fancied some lanes Wednesday evening?

Oh they are a joke arn't they... Makes me wonder if they can't play by the book, why should we...!! I called decorum brough council earlier and asked the question, I was refered to a quite impressive online map @ hertsdirect.org : WebMaps on Hertsdirect.org And asked to cross reference any...

Thanks for the info, if I get intouch with the council, exactly what should I ask to see? From my experience with councils I'm likely to be fobbed off with some BS so if I sound like I know what I'm talking about then they might not...

Ryder, Thanks for clearing that up, good to know! Where might I get hold of such a map?

'No Motor Vehicles Except For Access Sign' What defines access on roads like these? Can i drive them to 'access' whats on the other side? Can I drive down them to 'access' somewhere to.... take a photo? Can I drive them to 'access' the road/track its self? Anyone ever run into issues on...

evening' all, Just wondered if anyone has a range rover classic v8 radiator that doesn't leak that they might want to sell me?? Thanks Dave
