After 18 months without a landy finally got one.:D:D:D
sold my last one to get a Mitsubishi l200,:confused::confused: but the land rover bug never goes away.:rolleyes:
-
checked oils to discover my L/H swivel housing is leaking (chrome ball is a tad battered):doh:
and that my power steering pump is also leaking
oh and also cleaned engine to find out where that is leaking
-
yeah i left the green filters in ( as cannot be removed on my landy)
cannot tell that they are there
if i remember correctly LEDs cost me about $30 (australian company)

i replaced my dash lights with
http://www.bl-led.com.au/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=57
the ones from the video (but my ones are blue)
i left the green filters in as the bulbs just replace the old ones.
but you cannot tell that they have been left in.:D

found this
synthetic vs conventional mineral oil
The advantage of synthetic oil is that it can withstand higher temperature and can work longer without losing its lubricating qualities. It doesn't get thicker at below-zero temperatures providing good engine lubrication at a cold start...

Did this to mine worked very well

i seen them in a landy mag. would last me less than 5mins offroad

with it pulling to the left when braking ur right caliper could be seized. take out the pads pump the brake to see if the pistons move (will prob have to undo bleed nipple to get pistons back to position where u can get pads back in)
bleeding brakes two front ones if u have worked on front...

refitted alternator today, after it had been tested and classed as ok
changed nothing no it (no cleaning etc)
now getting 14.23volts to battery
gauge is still reading of the scale (time for a new one me thinks)
does this suggest my alternator is working correctly sometimes but not others...
-
yeah will do that tomorrow multi-metre in landy, outside in snow :eek:
-
when its started it is reading at 17.8v when turned of it varies between 12.1v and 13.7v (reading goes up the longer i hold the multi-metre on the terminals):confused:
prob sounds stupid but what will cause a cell to go down battery only few months old is it just unlucky or will something...
-
i tested it with a multi-metre will try another one tomorrow(incase faulty) once i have refitted the alternator.
im on the Isle of Man so ive got nowhere big like halfrauds to get things tested. which is a pain cause when i need big things for landy (chassis:Cry:) it will not be easy

hi
got a 1989 2.5td 110 which is overcharging its putting 18v to the battery.
fitted a new voltage regulator to the alternator but did not fix problem.
so i took alternater to be bench tested come back as no faults found
any idea what could be causing this to happen:confused:
thanks
