Nice, thanks Phil!

I should have left a gap between 'every' and 'one' there perhaps! 😁

High pressure air Caboz, but you can’t be absolutely sure without blowing out everyone and checking.

No idea, but those are big bits! You have to wonder how far the smaller bits have got. I'd take the oil filter off and cut it open to see what is in there first. It could tell you if it is worth opening up the engine further. My fingers are crossed for you.

Little did you know..... what?

Great stuff. Where next after Gambia? (I know Sierra Leone reasonable well from 2002 though).

Thanks Kev. New NGKs are in, but didn't sort it. Nor did the Britpart new HT leads, however I'm looking forward to receiving some Magnecor reds this coming week. It seems a little strange but I think it was the alternator pulley going 'wobbly' and allowing the serpentine belt to ping off...

I have fox dampers on the disco and they are very good as mention. Another vote for KYB as mid-price replacements, I have these on the (said quietly) landcruiser with the standard leaf springs. No complaints about them, even on Kenya’s demanding terrain. Probably worth saying the previous...

No idea, but following with interest!

I would have thought so too (electrical)... Wow...

Just to help, this all links in too… https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/disco-1-1991-v8-fuel-pump-electrical-wiring.394060/page-2

Yep, 160A is high, but that may be marketing. Unless you have a twin batt setup and a big winch, you won’t need that much.

Warm welcome DIY, post up the issue in the Engine sub-forum.

I kinda wonder if the ‘new’ parts available today are decent quality enough though? Something like the 123 gets past that. The plugs are certainly showing the mixture to be rich at the moment, but perhaps that is unburnt fuel from the misfire. The ignition system ‘learning’ a bit would be...

You speak a lot of sense Marjon, simple systems which are fixable ‘in the field’ is indeed the way ahead for me. I’m just a bit frustrated with the misfire at the moment, but thinking the new distributor cap and rotor will sort this. Judging by the state of the one on the engine. Standby for...

I’ll take a picture to show mine (funarrr, funarrrr). Kinda of a specialist need, RC is proper off-roading with a max of 40 kmph / 25 mph. Hence lots of cooling required!

The misfire has suddenly started, but I don’t disagree it could be the cam. Looking at changing that in the next 6 months. The engine starts and ticks over beautifully. Just bad misfire in the top third of the rev range and poor power (compared to a couple of weeks ago) plus engine running...

The car came with a set of Champions in, and a new set of 8x N9YC Champions plus a new set of 8x BPR8ES. I did a plug change to the new champions (no difference to the misfire at high revs / under load) and yesterday changed to the NGKs. It didn’t want to tick over when cold on the NGKs but...

My viscous pulls through the rad from the engine side, so the twin fans I have at the front blow air through to assist. What little air flow I get at max revs, whilst doing 10 kmph through a massive donga (oooooh, errrrrr missus) is going the same way. The best idea is a shroud on the SPAL...

£146, I have a shedload of batts already… https://www.powertoolmate.co.uk/kit-builder/milwaukee-18v/grease-gun/milwaukee-m18gg-0-18v-heavy-duty-grease-gun-body-only.htm I suspect the M12 version at £99 will do everything you need...
