Thanks for the detailed answer, it's very helpful. I have installed a Voltmeter on the dash, so I know it's charging properly. There's only a clock pulling current when it's off and i fitted that years ago, so i don't think it's that. I think it must be that being an old 2.5 n/a, it takes a bit...

Hi, I'm having problems with my battery going flat over time, because I only use it locally and it never really gets a long run. The battery is new and I've checked all the wiring. If I leave it on charge overnight it's fine for a week or so. Can I fit a higher power alternator? I've seen them...

There isn't a relay apparently, the glow plugs go straight from the ignition. Fortunately, the weather's warmed up now and it's starting a bit better. I think I need a new battery.

Yeah, battery's good, turns over fine, just takes a lot longer to catch.

Hi, I'm only getting 9v at the glow plugs. Since I put new injectors in, it's become more difficult to start. I changed the glow plugs too. Apparently there's no relay in the system so does the power come straight from the ignition switch? Is it worth fitting a relay? Any ideas welcome. Thanks.

Sorry, just added its a plug and socket.

This is in the fusebox of my 1986 110 ex military. A small 2 pin plug and socket. Its always been unplugged. Just wondering if anyone knows what it's for? Thanks.

Good battery, turns over if you short the starter motor with a screwdriver. For some reason I'm only getting 9.7v at the glow plugs and the starter motor trigger wire. Good earth strap. Never had a problem before. New glow plug relay. Is there another relay to the starter motor? Everything...

Nothing, I just changed the injectors.

I recently put a set of reconditioned injectors in my ex military '86 with a 2.5D n/a. It's running much better; smother and virtually no smoke going up hills etc. The problem is, it's taking a lot more turning over to get it started than it did. Could it be something to do with the pump...

Hi, where is it? Is it one of the two behind the clocks or in the fusebox? thanks

I couldn't afford the petrol.

Hi, any recommendations on Landrover breakers in the south east? Looking to swap my n/a for a 200tdi. Thank you.

Hi, does anyone know if i can use pink coolant instead of green in my1986 2.5D n/a? Save me buying two different types all the time. Thanks.

Hi all, I've got a 1986 ex military 110 which I want to change the springs on. They're the originals and probably knackered anyway. It's a three door hard top standard ride height. Used mostly as a camper. Ill be adding a roof tent fairly soon. The ride is a bit harsh, I'd like to make it a bit...

The spindles and the rack and pinion seem fine.

Yes, I rebuilt it.

I don't think it has a relay there's nothing on the wiring diagram.

Hi, my wipers will only turn on if you go to speed 2. If you then turn back to speed 1 they work. Also the single wipe lever down won't work at first, but once you've used the wipers, it will work for a few minutes, then nothing. It does not have an intermittent function, only the single wipe...

Thanks, I've heard a bit about Lanoguard, might be worth a look. In the old days we used to coat the underneath with old engine oil, but I'm guessing that's illegal nowadays. The car's been out in Spain for years and is really good underneath. I figured it would be a good idea to protect it from...
