    Td5 in a 90 weird and wonderful problem

    Also would someone be able to explain what happens inside the instrument panel as I see the black lines between the warning indicators and they go to a a but not sure what that actually means. Thanks

    Td5 in a 90 weird and wonderful problem

    Put a td5 in my old 90, used a defender ecu with defender looms ect. Yesterday I finished the pipework and filled it up with coolant.. Went to turn it on and nothing. It was immobilised... Long story short I'd managed to join all 3 black wires for the bbus alarm to earth without realising. Now...

    clutch switch thread pitch?

    Would anyone on here be so kind as to measure the thread pitch on their TD5. Im fitting a td5 into my 90 and im struggling to find the master thread size. ive ordered all standard 90 clutch pipework and I know the slave side is m12 but the difference between the early 90 and td5 90 master is the...

    Td5 clutch pipe size

    A quick Google shows the master cylinder is m12 for the td5 slave but does anyone know the thread size for the master cylinder end and the pipe diameter I need to use? I'm putting a td5 onto my 90 and the old pipework was the same as brake line but I'm sure that the td5 disco pipe is thicker. Thanks

    t5 start then cut out imob issue?

    picked up the green immob box and a key fob from a friend who broke a disco 300tdi as they have the same part number, this now lets it crank if i use the fob or doesnt let it crank if it is immobilised. Just need to get some fuel for the tank and i can try it and see if that makes it sit at idle.

    Fitting a Stormtuning remapped ECU to 10P TD5 90

    happy days. Would it start at all with the throttle settings on 3 and not 2 or would it just not run?

    Fitting a Stormtuning remapped ECU to 10P TD5 90

    if original ecu from his truck got sent off then storm usually just sends out another ecu. I took mine to him for my td5 disco and he took an already done ecu out and swapped it for mine, that needed the security codes learning with a nano com to get it to work but for a 90 id assume plug and...

    Where to install TD5 Oil temperature sensor for gauge?

    Jumping in on an old thread from a Google search does anyone know where one would find an adapter for the standard oil sensor so that I could add an oil pressure gauge? Going from 200 to a td5 and there seems to be less bits n bobs available for them

    Primer and paint for chassis tidy up?

    So the chassis is fully stripped and sat needing some love. What's the best primer, rust treatment and paint to use? I was thinking of using raptor to paint the chassis with.

    Most sensible model for first timer

    self taught, me and my flock of pigeons don't do too bad a job I suppose. Just picked up my 3rd welder today since starting with a poxy Clarke 85en gasless thing. The joys of land rovers!
