i've had this, and it was my injectors. basic compression test, run the engine and crack each injector off and listen to the change in the rev's. by the sound of it, one cylinder was fine, 2 were running but not as well as the first and the 4th had gone on holiday. I got my gf to recon the...

just measure it

looking good, i've been looking at one of those ultra sonic cleaners, are they really worth the money?

so it's idiot proof, i'm sold

I think this has got out of propartion, it's not amazing to the extent when you start you car it's going to blow you off and clean the house, thats why we have wifes. Sales people will tell you anything weather it's true or not. It may not be as good as the sale guy said but it is very good...

i wish i could get redundancy, dont worry, i aint going anywhere i'm getting there with it

your job sounds far more interesting than mine, i work in a pub

hoping to get it sorted in the next week or so, but been very busy at work at the moment

i'll have to admit, mine is nothing like that, pics are to follow for how i'm getting on, thanks for everyones advice

thanks thats great, i'll try get some pics done to put up.

Just make sure you put a mushroom top on it and it wont take in anywhere near as much dust as a safari one

i saw a thing once where some one had to two series heater box's, cut them both in half and welded them together so it was an extra big heater box, which could fit two of the radiators in, apparantly if you measure it carefully it will just fit under the bonnet and it doubles the heat.

that looks a really good way of doing it as i had to put a new radiator on my series III and after putting the wire back under the top hose it has never been a decent seal and it occasionally drips water.

they are just another thing to go wrong, and if they do break, then you are stuck with no 4wd at all. If i was worried about fuel efficiency i wouldn't be driving something with the aerodynamics of a brick

thats usefull to know as it was something that i think might need doing within the next year.

is on the opposite side from the overdrive? as in exactly opposite, so that the over drive could be on that side if it was left hand drive.

if you want to cut the cost's right down, make your own snorkle out of drain pipe, just buy the mushroom for the top and make the rest from black drain pipe, doesn't look that different and far cheeper.

That sounds so obvious that i'd never think of it, in all honesty it was my confidence i hadn't been into land rovering long didn't have the right tools, or information

thanks for the continued advice, not sure if i mentioned, as it is definatly relivant I have NEVER done anything like this before, so any idiots guide tips are greatly received

that does look rather nice, i tryed doing one of my diff's once, the front bearing on it was buggered, but a little past my skill (and tool) level.
