Great info from all you guys. Will get me out of the ditch I'm in with the rave discs not loading properly on Win 10. Great work, much appreciated.

Much appreciated link for electrical trouble shooting. Great stuff!

Thanks for the link, just got myself a D1.

Great post. Thanks. Ah there is light a the end of the tunnel............but what's with the train noises?

Just fitted my first pulley at 200k, just waiting for the holding tool to arrive so I can tighten the blighter back up. Hope this one lasts as long as the original.

How did you stop the pulley from turning to achieve the extra 90 on the nut. Mine just kept moving in the engine mounts and rising up and out. So it wouldn't catch.

Excellent post. I was lost under the wheel arch for hours trying to figure this one out.

I'm having similar problems with mine and have been leaning towards gasket failure. But have been told by local Landy garage that that isn't likely. Pulled no1 injector out and it was slimy. Water level hasn't really moved in the expansion tank so also at a loss. Am following this thread with...

I had a similar issue there seems to be two different sensors up on offer on ebay, one having a shorter thread length and small bore than the other. Took a bit of swearing and a chat with my local parts guy to figure it out. Sometimes best to go to your local parts guy with the sensor and show...

Every time I've had to do anything with the t connectors I've had to replace the small rubber "O" rings as they flatten out on the sides and you end up with "wet" hoses. Worth the small amount of money and peace of mind. Great post on annealing, must try that next time I do an injector clean up.

I found when I did my injectors that if they don't go down properly then they aren't in correctly. It took me a couple of goes to get it slide down right. I think the copper washer didn't slip down correctly the first time and may have been sitting crooked and jamming the top of the injector...

Sensors were changed as a last resort. Did all the usual fuel filters etc before moving on to the next related probable cause. Was told by my local LR garage that it had to be sensors as I'd changed all the obvious and with the white smoke it was an air problem. Hence the removal and replacement...

Also have to get rid of the death rattle from the crank pulley, has become very noisy of late. Another one of those, wait for a dry day jobs.

Although that wouldn't account for all the white smoke during tick over and holding at different revs?

Thanks for this I had completely overlooked the VAC pipes will give it a go. Cheers.
