    Disco 1 Is it usual for the auto box to stall when…

    I think that is a good call Rangieman. It is an aftermarket steering setup from PSC. https://www.pscmotorsports.com/all-products/motorsports/fhss/complete-kits/40-inch-and-up-tire-size-1/fhk400p.html Idle is fine unless either side hard lock is used.

    It looks like someone else is using #744 this coming year!

    Disco 2 Auto box cooler hoses question.

    Looking at this myself. Considering a AS135 to go with one of their rads.

    Defender V8 3.9EFI manual to automatic

    Because the D2 didn’t fit, or you didn’t try it? My D1 ‘T’ is a bit knackered but I only need the mechanicals. I’m not worried about the reversing light coming on.

    Defender V8 3.9EFI manual to automatic

    Good to hear Becks Bear. I have an autobox on a D1 gear change but wonder if the D2 lever will fit. What did you do? My D2 lever and rod. The D1 is a ‘T’ with the button on the dvr’s side. Not the best picture, as I seem to have focused on the ground!

    Interesting, it does for me. Have a search for ‘Team Loafer’ or ‘#61’

    Serpentine Belt made a bid for freedom…

    I’ll take a decent picture, but it does go from a tab on the other side of that one you have marked to the inlet manifold, yes. Just to add to the fun, I’m running a RPi Engineering ignition system (and a big K&N). I am in the process of adding more heatshrink to everywhere to safeguard wires!

    Full blown twin, batt setup on the car, and until the belt pinged off, the batts were both seeing 14.1V. 12.7V with the engine off. Here she is… More info here: https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/what-have-u-done-on-ur-disco-today.307164/page-270#post-5803530

    Serpentine Belt made a bid for freedom…

    Here we go… Probably a bit close to the alternator housing, but I pushing it back with my fingers. It appears to move around, without moving the windings. Out of interest, what does the cone with the green tube at the bottom of the picture do? Tube goes to the inlet manifold.

    Serpentine Belt made a bid for freedom…

    It’s a 3.9l EFi with a serpentine belt running around the water pump, fan, power steering and alternator, so the steering going very heavy was the give away. I turned around and immediately found the belt on the trail, in unmarked condition. Refitted it a couple of times and it leapt straight...

    Disco 1 Is it usual for the auto box to stall when…

    Good question Discool. It left with a diesel engine (as the rad is still TDi) but currently has a 3.9 V8 EFi. It is running an upgraded PSC Motorsports power steering system, which might be causing it Marjon, good call!

    Tickover. I have to shift to Neutral and turn the wheels straight to keep the engine running.
