    New Lift Pump - poor performance.

    Fitted a new lift pump ( Britpart) to my 200tdi a week or so ago, and everything was running bloody great again.. engine was smooth, and so much more responsive. Now, after a 4 hour journey its running no where near as good as it was. the power and torque delivery is not as strong as it was...

    Fuel Lift Pump

    What are the indicators for a buggered lift pump? My 90 generally drives great, but every now and again I get a 'burst' of tapping/rattling for aprox 2 seconds then off, then on again dependent of engine load and speed - a bit like a tappet noise ( but I checked the tappets and there fine)...

    HD Rear Coil Springs

    I want to stiffen up the back end of my 90, as I'm now carrying approx 500 kilos of stuff around for work. I would like to pop on some heavy duty springs on the back. But, do HD springs mean lift? If not, why would i want lift? There's quite a price difference between company's... whose...

    Is it possible replace the silenced 200tdi tailpipe, with a non-silenced 300tdi section? Would it be a bolt on fit, or would there be some tinkering? Thanks

    Was prowling the net, and came accross this: Acetone In Fuel Said to Increase Mileage Never heard of it used this way before - Has anyone actually tried it? I would personally have concerns over prolonged contact with any rubber/plastic parts it would come into contact with. I'm not...

    Steering problem

    Driving back last night from North Devon, my Landy developed a problem with the steering. Which I can only describe as it felt like it was 'self steering', and kind of 'weaving' down the road( and no, I hadn't had a drink:)). Also, cornering stability had gone completely - in that unless I went...

    Land Rover Alloy Wheels

    I've picked up these wheels, and was told they would fit my 1986 90. I tryed to fit the rear first to make sure they would miss the drums, which they do, but there a really sloppy fit around the studs. What nuts do I need to secure them to my Landy? As there no way my original nuts are...

    What affect will using a 2.5 N/A exhaust system with a 200 Tdi engine ? Since fitting my 200 engine ( to replace my 2.5 N/A)I've not yet had chance to fit the full 200 Zorst system, only the downpipe. Although everything is running fine, I do feel the engine is struggling to get rid of the...

    New Engines in !

    Finally got my engine swapped from a 2.5 N/A to a 2.5 TDi.... WOW!! What a difference it makes. A lot quieter than my N/A, and the torque delivery is spot on; exactly where you want it - low down the rev range. Where I live there is steep hill, after steep hill, so I need the grunt very low...

    Defender 300tdi engine mounts

    I've just read: 300 tdi conversion He said he had to move the engine mounts when replacing the TD with the 300tdi engine. Will I have to move my 2.5N/A engine mounts to fit my 300tdi, even though mine is a Defender 300 Engine? Thanks

    Chance of a 300 TDI

    At the mo I have 2.5 n/a in my 90, which overall I'm happy with - but I would really like the benefits of a more powerfull engine for longer drives, and the steep bloody hills we have around here. There's a chance I could get a 300tdi, with gearbox. Theres a couple of questions I'd like to...

    Fan Cowl.

    Do I really need the fan cowl on my 90? Only ask because one of the rubber connecting bushe's ( top) has perished, and bust. Tryed to find a new one, but given up. So, I was thinking of removing the cover completely.:eek:
