Anyone able to give me some idea where to look for my oil temp sender? I know its got one, as it was working before I had the engine loom replaced. (Also connected the guage up to the water temp sender (Cylinder head), and confirmed I've got the right wire.) I've found the water temp in...

well got a new wheel hub that matched my exisiting one, result. all fitted and no more play in that corner. :) Still a bit of juddering under braking, so not completely resolved, but a big step in the right direction. Right, time to look at me swivels next :D . Thanks, Paul W.

will try and get some photos taken. a few ppl have pointed me to the swivels, however the free play is totally removed for a week or two after replacing the bearings...so think it is likely to be in that area, dunno though. Guess its just a case of start checking and replacing parts til the...

Is there anyway of identfying what hubs I need?? Tried two so far, first one seemed to have 3/8 bolts...mine has M10. Second one the space between the bearings is too small, by over an inch. (ie outer bearing is inset from the threaded portion of the stub axle by about an inch!!!) Landy is a...

sorted.:) £3 for a new fuel filter... 250 mile round trip, and not a single hiccup.

Thanks Griff. You guessed correctly 1986 2.5 NA. (Ex-Mod) No smoke at all, except tiny bit on startup from cold. Air filter changed last month, along with oil, and the rest of the fluids. Not changed the fuel filter yet, so hopefully try and get my hands on one this afternoon. I think the...

Symptoms: Initially at high speed (well 55 mph :o ), and going up hill, the engine would suffer from what felt like a misfire, just occasionally missing a beat. Accompanied by a more "bass" tone to the exhaust note. Breakdown recovery, said HGF, and towed it home. Pressure tested, no sign of...

Bearings have gone on the front offside wheel, so hopefully found the fault. Thanks again.

Thanks Jim, think you might have hit the nail on the head. I will test Servo, but pretty sure I noticed it sink when engine is started. However, I've also picked up a slight steering wheel vibration, so could also point to loose front wheel hub. Was also informed by the previous owner that...

I’ve got a small issue, in the fact my brake pedal appears to go soft at the most inopportune moments… :eek: It appears to be very intermittent, however, always works on the second “pump”. Also from time to time, when momentarily sat with foot on the brake, foot...

now sorted, thank you for advice. It was indeed the ignition supply. :)

Thanks for info, will check. :)

LOL, I hadn't checked the host site :D, she's done quite a job on that vehicle though.

Hi can anyone point me in the right direction to find my ground points? Particulary the one that acts as ground to the fuel guage\oil temp and water temp. All these guages failed on me this morning, check ground continuity between all guages which was ok. Traced it back to a bullet...

if anyone else is looking for gear ratios.. found a comprehensive site covering them here Land Rover gear ratios So with a Diff Ratio of : 3.54:1 (LT230) Transfer Ratio of 1.67:1 (in high) (LT77) And Gear Ratios of: 1st___3.590 2nd___2.300 3rd___1.507 4th___1.000...
