Hi, I am considering buying a disco but I am looking for some advice on which is best. I have previously owned and rebuilt a 110 csw, sold it about 6 months ago but i am now getting landrover blues and withdrawal symptoms. I would be willing to go to about 5500 - 6000 quid., so want something...

Thanks for the info

Hi, My mate has a series 2a/3 fitted with a daihatsu 2.8 non turbo engine. He currently has a series 2 g/box fitted with over drive. Question is this:- He wants to know can a 5 speed LT77 from a 90/110 be in the series 3 chassis. If so, what has to be done to enable it to fit. Any info welcome.

Hi, Can anyone help with wiring up a weber 32/34 carb. I have been given one to go on my 2.5 petrol landy, but no wiring diagram. It has a couple of what look like electrically operated vaves or solenoids, but i am unsure whether they need a 12v switchable supply or permanent 12v. I have...

Because i`m fed up with oil leaking clattery diesels, it`s either black smoke ,blue smoke or white.

How straight forward is it to put a 2.5 petrol defender engine in , inplace of the 19j 2.5td unit. I believe the bottom half is the same. So would engine mounts be in same place, would the flywheel housing mate straight up to my LT77 box. Would an inline fuel pump be needed and can i still use...

I tried a couple of stop leak products as I have a leaking rear crank seal. Nothing worked.

It is a screw on type. But have never had leaks before.

Not that I has noticed.

Yes,and part filled filter before putting it back on.
