    Does anyone actually have a 100% working Landy?

    100% of my Land Rover works, just not 100% of them time. Does that count?

    300tdi Manual to Auto conversion

    Why do you need to make it an auto? There are lots out there to make the clutch a LOT lighter, or to add servo assistance to the clutch which makes it a lot easier to drive. I was going to auto my 200tdi because of arthritic knees but in the end went with a LOF power master cylinder and...

    DOUBLE WOODEN CAR PORT BUILD

    That’s fascinating thank you, does the wood move less over time? I have in my mind that the hollow fibres of the wood expand and contract but gradually over time ‘settle’ and that the movement would diminish with time?

    DOUBLE WOODEN CAR PORT BUILD

    When building something like this do you have to take into account expansion and contraction of the wood frame during the different seasons?

    No. The lower bolts foul the timing chest when you wind them out

    DOUBLE WOODEN CAR PORT BUILD

    Very very nice! I had a garden room built and due to the size and proximity to the neighbours I would have had to paint fireproof goop on it aswell so I just moved it further from the boundary.

    lots of black smoke..loss of power and runs hotter after engine swap...help

    Hang on the motor has been stored for 2 years out of a motor? I thought you had seen it running and then pulled it out and fitted it straight into your car. That’s a bit of a different ball game now tbh. I wonder if you have faulty injectors?

    Something has gone amiss with the install, an airline amiss etc, something is plumbed up wrong, etc Go over everything again and check, intercooler pipes the lot. If it was running in the old vehicle, and was taken out and now isn’t something isn’t been connected up right imo

    Vacuum pump - 200tdi etc

    Currently chasing a ‘loss of servo assistance’ when cadence braking, Does any one know what vacuum a vacuum pump on a 200tdi (and similar) engine should make at idle? Mine makes -26InHG and I don’t know if that’s okay or not. It also drops by about 10 for one press of the brake. It’s a that...

    The Old Coachroad - East Sussex

    I would write to the ROW officer aswell (politely) and ask when the decision was made and when it will be reviewed? Maybe local councillor etc aswell. Tbh the winter thing isn’t a bad move, and for all we know they genuinely want the lane to recover and fully intend to re-open it. From the look...
