    Classic Wiring diagram needed '86/'87?

    OK tried that and pump doesn't run when I opened the flap, gave the connector at the AFM a good clean but still no go, took the over run relay out to have a look at it and it was full of rust inside and the switching was intermittent but didn't make any difference with the new relay in place...

    LR/RR Hybrid cooling

    Found a picture of a 6 pot rad and the bottom connection is on the left so no good it seems the original rad will be OK for capacity will need to have a chat with my local radiator man and see if he can make a suitable mod, maybe blank of the existing connection and bring an elbow out from the...

    LR/RR Hybrid cooling

    I thought about maybe a 6pot rad but I haven't seen one either, I need the bottom hose connection on the right to connect to the water pump, one solution would be to bring the connection out of the bottom of the rad instead of the back, all I'd need would be a 32mm od elbow off a scrap rad.

    Classic Wiring diagram needed '86/'87?

    Cheers yes been through those connections during my rewiring IIRC blue white is from the pump relay so need to trace back the relay coil wire which I think is white slate which depending on which wiring diagram I'm looking at comes from the ECU and the white from the ignition switch (ignition on...

    I'm beginning to hate it too, far too many wires to find homes for! Graham

    Doesn't appear to be that simple, anyway it needs power when cranking AND when running. Thanks anyway. Graham

    LR/RR Hybrid cooling

    Hi all, next hurdle to overcome, I dropped the original radiator into my 2A V8 hybrid, which I've got back to after too long, only to find that the connection for the bottom hose on the radiator wants to go through the fan belt! My radiator is in need of a recore at least so is only fit for the...

    Classic Wiring diagram needed '86/'87?

    Thanks for that, it makes sense, do you know which colour wire sends this signal to the pump relay? I still have a few wires to find homes for and maybe it's one of them, hopefully something simple like a bad contact from sitting under a tarp for the last 15 years or so! Will check it out now...

    Defender Brake Pedal box in a 2a/3 ?

    Hope the pictures help, this is in my 2A/RR hybrid, managed to use the RR steering column as well and it went in without too much drama, still got to fit the MC and plumb in the brakes after I've overhauled the calipers along with lots of other stuff on the to do list! Graham

    Classic Wiring diagram needed '86/'87?

    Been using them quite a bit getting rid of the parts of the loom I don't need now its time to join it all back up again! Had a run out of the engine today went a lot better after I found I'd timed it 180 degrees out!! Hell of a bang and blew the air filter off! Discovered a couple of issues...

    Classic Wiring diagram needed '86/'87?

    Hi, I'm cracking on with a long term project Series 2A/RR hybrid, donor RR was a D reg Vogue EFI problem I'm up against is the wiring diagram in the Haynes book I have doesn't fully match the loom I have and a NA '87 diagram I found on the interweb is partially correct but again not the same...

    Hello from Pembrokeshire

    Afraid there was about 15 years of inactivity but going great guns now, electrics are a bit of a nightmare as can't find the right diagram :-(

    Defender Brake Pedal box in a 2a/3 ?

    Just so you know it can be done I've mounted a pedal and servo from an 86 Range Rover with dual circuit master to my '68 2A hybrid and it all tucks neatly under the wing, had to cut and shut the pedal to get the angle and height right but not difficult. I cut the pedal box out of the RR bulkhead...

    Series 2A V8 hybrid

    Hi all, started building this about 16 years ago but other stuff took priority and it sat in the corner waiting for its time to come, enter Covid and a decision to get cracking! I'd owned the 2A since 1988 and also had a Range Rover with terminal chassis rot so thought OK get a new chassis and...
