It'll go straight into reverse, but then wont go in any gear once ive backed out of the drive, but as soon as it does its ok all the rest of the time. feels like clutch

its happened the last two times ive taken the landy out, when i reverse out of the drive, and then push the clutch in to change into first it wont go into gear. I push the clutch pedal in and out for 20 secs and it'll eventually it'll go into first and off we go .It will then be fine untill the...

anybody got a proven model that they can recommend. by that i mean one i can just look up on the net, instead of searching types for ages:)

Before i get flamed, i tried the search button to find an old thread but couldnt find it!!! Whats the most used, easiest to use, sat nav or whatever map system that shows all green lanes etc etc. all the bits that id need to know whilst laning or finding them. Electronic and not paper maps...

Will do, thanks and yep i did find out the hard way, i was scared stiff id f##ked it but it ran today, quiet as a bell. so im really chuffed:)

Big Thanks to FANATIC, who made the effort to ring me twice and talk me through what had to be done. Really really gratefull, landie up and running and it doesnt rattle!! Big thanks fella and thank you to all those who replied :clap2:

i need somebody to help/show me how to prime my oil pump on my v8 series3. Theres a thread in the "its a v8 mate" section. Its getting to the stage where it'll be fooked soon so i desperately need somebody to help if possible. Its in bits on the drive, ive just put on a remote oil filter with a...

to work the oil pump drive gear, i have to make an adaptor, how do i do this, its says remove the distributor then what does the adaptor have to work the oil drive gear thru the hole, or is it removed so it doesnt bugger it up. Im feeling i might be able to save this engine but i must get it...

if i try number one (cos its all stripped again) do you mean i pack the housing with the two cogs in, flush with vaseline. Then just bolt it all together and crank it over again. Is that it, what does that do (excuse my ignorance):o. Also would i be better off putting my remote oil filter on the...

well i filled the oil filter with oil first and cranked it with no ht lead on so it just turned over.How would i prime it with a flat pump cover, its not like the normal filter cover. Please keep trying to help cos im a bit scared to do anymore in case i mess it up completely. I did do a search...

Well the pump wheel turns and with the casing off the Psv valve isnt there, thats the bit i dont understand, surely the oil would pump out over the floor when i crank it over? Oh and it all workrd great brfore i took it apart. My old man said if it aint broke dont fix it, bugger i was gonna off...

So i can off road my v8 series3 ive just fitted a mocal oil pump replacement cover so i can run a remote oil filter BUT turned it over with no ht lead to pump the oil round then started it and the oil light stayed on so turned it off straight away, removed oil filter and cranked it and no oil...

I just started changing my oil filter housing for a remote type using a new oil pump cover with the two outlets. I hope the PRV is just a spring and a small cylindrical shaped thingy on the end, have i missed anything!! Also when i removed the old cover ( on my back in the ****ing Rain) the...

You'd probably shoot me!! I do enjoy it on here tho

good job i dont put spec of my other one up then :D Sean would have a fit:D

oh well, but it does drive well tho, im surprised how good it is across the not too horrendous stuff:).

Think its done with the springs and military shackles (well that was what i was told):)

Well im gonna put an addy up tomorrow, it is, A 1968 series2a with front panel bought forward so looks like a defender,it has; Large spec rad Electric fan, thermostatically controlled and switch control, engine fan taken off so can control fan thru water Remote oil filter and head 2 xSU's...

Hadnt thought of that:rolleyes:. I knew a chassis change required one but does a suspension change. I thought they did it on a point system where you had to get 8 points to be clear of any test

Trouble is i like the older looking series!!. So basically im wasting my time i presume. I did think about buying a 90 but everybody has one:(, hence why i thought of coiling it. So at the mo i have two series 2/3 v8's. I suppose i might as well flog one and get a 90 then, anyone want a super...
