I have two defender diesels and it is the brown/white wire going to the solenoid on both, you can interrupt it through an unused switch on the dash or fit a micro switch which can be hidden anywhere you like. www.vehicleproducts.co.uk will sort you out. Regards to all, sorry if this reply is...

Just interrupt the solenoid exiter wire with a hidden £2 switch you wont start it with the keys. I have done it to all my diesels.

Hi everyone, i have used that title so this may help someone who types in exactly that when theire V8 wont start. Last sunday after beating a pal clay pigeon shooting we left the shooting ground and headed for the local watering hole. Him being a little narked was giving his motor loads of...

All i can say about landi zone, is if you have a job to do on your landi and even if you are the worlds best spannerman, somebody will have done that same job and posted the pitfalls. There is nothing better than listening to experience.

hi there, i am running a 3.9 in a 90 and used a janspeed which had just the one box tucked out of the way and it ran and sounded awesome, good but not cheap. After much time and use it needed looking at so i took it off and went round AMD four wheel drive in merrylees, leicestershire plonked it...

I took one of mine for an mot and it failed on the drop arm ball joint and sure enough it was knackered. Not the easiest of jobs as had to air file the top cup to collapse it but better than taking the drop arm off though. Re-test (partial) and tester says" good oh, i bet you can tell the...

incomers, its always incomers from the metropolis retiring to or just buying a place in the country. I was driving a landi on a rupp once with the back full of hay doing a farmer freind a favour when a couple walking asked if i realy had to drive this lane as i was destroying the surface, they...

hi again, i forgot to say the temp gauge in the defender dash is not compatable with the sender in the V8 so the gauge goes up to the 120 mark then when the thermostat opens drops to the hundred mark. in real terms its opening at around 88-90 then drops to 80-82. I could put an in line resistor...
