Hi guys I am doing some work on a disco 1 300tdi auto at the minute about a week ago I changed the oil and filter and it was perfect its done probably 100 miles since and this morning got a phone call yesterday it was perfect from cold it would change gears etc, it would do the normal auto thing...

well what size are they as my fried had 265 75 16 micky T Baja mtz and it drove nice it gripped well and no symtoms like your saying

fitted some of their steering joints to my disco 6 months down the line it still goes roughly where you point it but the rubbers are splitting and its just crap really, fog light switch and rear heated window switch come on at the second time of asking, the cambelt that was fitted (let my old...

its ok he was thors apprentice

yes mate do you at least have a vice if yes then undue the trailing arms and do them by either cutting the old one out have having a fire burning it out then using your vice as a press and it pops out there are many ways but fire tea helper and thick gloves is the easiest if you have a open...

Dan has come to see me a few times with the yellow submarine its a shame we are so far apart cause its nice to go offroading with people who know what they are doing and respect the forest a little vid that Dan made when he last came down, I had GLU the series (my baby) Bart Dans friend nabbed...

if desperate I have brand new CAV injection pumps out here still in the wrapping if things get desperate let me know

I live in the bieszczady mountains of Poland great until you need parts, the nearest land rover parts shop is 4 hours drive, the local motor factors don't stock nor sell land rover bits so have to get on the phone and make an order bloody cam belt is only 7500 km old

GLU (74 88) wont start for anyone but me and once it is started if some one else drives she automatically pops the transfer box to neutral and it first shakes you then says ok I want to be driven and goes smooth and steering precise but when you set off loads of slop and square tyres, the disco...

I have stretched the belt, I re timed it up all the marks spot on where they should be with a 10mm drill bit in the injector pump slot so it could not turn set everything and it ran on 3.5 cylinders and in 10 seconds I switched it off and had to evacuate the workshop bluddy unreal so I have...

looks nice but are you bored with it already then ?

this is unreal ok all the timing set up properly using a 10mm drill bit in the injector pump pully and the timing marks are spot on underneath as well and its just running like a bluddy dog pouring smoke out worse than before so have I stretched my timing belt by any chance ? thanks guys

the timing wheel on the injector pump has jumped in the fixing the 3 bolts that hold the cog have a little bit of adjustment and there is permanent marker on the cog and the fixing wheel and it is out of line and you can see the washer marks so do I have to un tension the whole engine or can I...

im currently pursuing the tappets as they are loud and then im going to check the timing, is there any easy way without chipping off the timing cover but I don't think its lift pump as its getting diesel and lots of it as it leaves a mobile smoke screen in its wake I mean the whole road is...

It was not that deep mate I will put some pics on and yeah im thinking it may be the pump a little bit but I doubt water got in the diesel as all around the filler was clean but I don't know bit worried to be honest about it but just eliminate step by step and all will be good

no its a 300tdi so will have a look at the timing marks and reset the tappets and go through the system one more I cleaned out the intercooler pipes and inlet manifold ao I know they are clean and nice but will go around checking jublie clips and whip off rocker cover and keep you guys posted...

since I drowned it it has had a new air filter and turbo as turbo kaput, and I drowned it by going through a bomb hole (####ing tourists made it deeper), went through it the previous Sunday then on the Tuesday and then it hydro locked in the bomb hole whipped off the rocker cover and pulled the...

i will change the fuel filter tomorrow and disconnect the filter breather that goes in to the rocker cover, then i cant think of any more to be done as its had a new air filter the oil filter cant be blocked or it would go bang and the oil light come on surely
