    Recommend me a grease gun please..

    Love my Milwaukee M18 grease gun. Works everytime, unlike every manual one I have ever had.

    Oooooo, hold on. I search for ‘spark plug’ but I have now found this old timer… https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/ngk-or-champion.95499/

    I have been told…. Use Champions?

    I have always used NGK plugs and plug caps since running a Suzuki TS50ER (restricted, but unrestricted to 42mph back in the day). An RD125DX, a GT250, a GSX750, a ZXR750H2 and a GSXR1000K3 followed… all on NGK. Even the current Husaberg TE300 runs NGKs. The Hilux and Landcruisers don’t count...

    Std v’s 123 Ignition v’s Megasquirt in general, but as it relates to a V8 too…

    They seem to use hyperspark as their ignition. Love the look of the sniper 2 as a fuel injection replacement. https://www.holley.com/products/ignition/hyperspark_ignition_for_sniper_efi/

    Discussion here on a Series 3: https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/electronic-ignition-123-vs-britpart.355918/#post-4945249 And a good (old) discussion here: https://forum.britishv8.org/read.php?6,30614,page=1 However after messing about with the standard ignition on my 3.9EFi, I wondered...

    I went the whole hog and bought a Momo for my Disco. More room is essential, I think that looks fine!

    Steve's Land Raft

    I can see you have the turbo now, I was just going to say that Andrew at Allisport is a mine of information (fairly obvious) and a dang nice & helpful bloke. You won’t go wrong with anything with their brand on (or associated with). It looks like you have a cracker of a 90 there, but show...

    Will a D2 auto selector fit a D1?

    I think that is what Tonks meant?

    V8 Starting Issue

    Yes, indeed! Turn that picture 90 degrees anticlockwise and the fan would be below them.

    V8 Starting Issue

    New HT leads and new fuel filter fitted. Just waiting for the new distributor cap and rotor to arrive. I changed the plugs (lordy!) for new and all the screw on caps were loose, they are not now. It is firing better but not perfect yet. The old plugs were very dark but gaps were correct and...

    Will a D2 auto selector fit a D1?

    And that steel plate won’t be too much of a drama!

    Thanks Tonks! I have a complete D2 setup…

    Alternator failed - how to safely continue driving

    Those two pictures of the gauge show it is charging. What is the alternator rated to? 60-80A is common I think, and that is at max revs. It probably pushes 40A or less normally (I don’t think it will fail and over-charge, just undercharge). I think an 80 mile drive will be fine, and will...

    I brought a very rough running v8 90 the other day

    Nice! Sounds like a bargain then…
