    starts spot on then when warm runs high idle

    My idle control valve was on its way out, when it was at normal running temperature with it unplugged it would idle better. If you don't run one at all you can just set the base idle to 900rpm

    starts spot on then when warm runs high idle

    Timing out won't give you a 2000rpm idle. Most likely to be idle control valve or maf. Un plug the idle control when its warm and see how it runs then.

    Silencer replacement or standard?

    Getting rid of the cats made the biggest difference to the sound/loudness of mine. V8 disco - YouTube That's mine with a smallish middle box no cats and no back box. And headman headers but they didn't do anything to the sound!

    Recommended rocker shaft /rockers?

    A real steel cam would be for a road/race application making it's power higher in the rev range...not what you want in a 2 tonne disco that revs to 5000k or so. Pull off a rocker cover and then the 4 14mm bolts holding the shaft to the head. if you slide one of the spring to the side you will...

    Recommended rocker shaft /rockers?

    Mine were from V8 tuner...but all they are is just allmakes4x4 stuff, didn't seem bad quality but all i did was change the shafts and arms and lost about 10psi oil pressure

    Inconsistent ignition sparking

    That electronic igniton kit is probably no better than the standard electronic pick up. I run a mallory electronic dizzy in mine...exspensive but good

    Inconsistent ignition sparking

    Wellllllll....it turned outs that the wire from the -neg side of the coil to the ecu has a squashed up pin on the ecu plug which im guessing gave it odd resistance readings and messed things up! Put another pin on the plug and it's been perfect for nearly a week now. Why do i always getting...

    Recommended rocker shaft /rockers?

    I'm agreeing with fett...Replaced my rocker arms and shafts and since have seen a drop in oil pressure. Going to swap back when i get the time. A good low mileage set is probably a better bet

    300tdi auto transfer box problem

    Auto's are good off road but make sure you only go between D and R when the wheels are completely not moving, if your stuck in a hole and trying to get out going back and forth this can kill the clutches in the autobox.

    Inconsistent ignition sparking

    Spoke to him today and he said it's 100% better but i'm not sure, he never said where the water was. It's nothing to do with the dizzy as before he got hold of it i fitted a recon unit with new pick up and it made no difference. Noisy i checked, scraped, multimetred, wiped, sprayed, cleaned...

    Inconsistent ignition sparking

    It's been in the garage for 3 weeks now and the bloke doesn't seem to have done much. He's convinced its water ingress somewhere and is letting it "Dry out" when its sunny. Ahhh well i feel sorry for the local petrol station not getting all my money everytime i use it!
