AllanWorms replied to the thread Hello again, my TD5 90 brakes are poor you can stand on the pedal and coming to a stop takes time, although they are good enough for the MOT need help.I had that with Repco ceramic pads ere in NZ. Paid good money for them too. Ended up getting "clearance" TRW front pads and cheap "silverline" for the rear. 6 sets of fronts and 4 sets of rears was Under NZ$30 (15 pounds!) 🤣 The ceramics... -
Not a bad swap! ;)

The same way an aircon tech. does - use some scales. Digital kitchen scales will do, put the can on it with the hose attached, switch on and charge the system until the weight drops no more, do the same with other cans until the charge weight is...

Your understanding is incorrect - refrigerant charge is done solely by weight, pressure varies in a static system dependent upon temperature and by temperature differential when running. It's possible to achieve the required pressure differential...

I agree, shorter gearing would certainly make them more peppy and fun to drive. The balance is against how much high speed cruising you may do. The V8's are nice engines, but they still do their best work at mid and high rpm. Lots of people...

AllanWorms replied to the thread Disco 2 tuned td5 0-60 times?.The gearing on a V8 auto disco 1 ruins the performance potential anyway. Mine will get to 60 MPH pretty quick for an old crapper, but it'll hold on to 2nd well past that! First gear will go to a bit over 35mph,at 30 MPH, a hard push on the...

A D1 could be a 3.5 or a 3.9. Big variance in power. Most are autos too. And there was a switch to the electronically controlled auto and serpentine V8's in this period too, which will all change how they perform. Parkers says for a Td5 D2 14.8...

AllanWorms replied to the thread Classic Tapping noise under load.Check for an exhaust manifold leak. They are loud under higher loads, but can be competely quiet at idle. I use a stethoscope, with a long stainless tube on it, and can hear the leaks plain as day.

AllanWorms replied to the thread Inner rear lights not functioning, because Italian design!?.It's possible. Here in NZ, a lot of 4x4's didn't have the body mounted lights working, only the bumper mounted ones - the body ones didn't have the correct viewing angle, as rear mounted spare wheel obstructed them... so they were blanks. Seems...

You have got a point, trying to deal with OP is becoming like herding cats!!

AllanWorms replied to the thread Freelander 1 Freelander EV.A relative had a Telsa S P100D, towing a fairly light, but boxy trailer cut his range down TO between 25 and 30% of the range doing the same trip without the trailer! His next car was one of those Mercedes SUV+Coupe things, with the twin turbo...
