    another stupid question!

    My V8 gets about 20-21mpg and that gives me around 400klm range if I am careful...but last fill was from close to empty and cost $130 (80 l @$1.62/l) Having just fitted a snorkel, I will have to do another fuel run and see if the economy has improved with the better breathing. I have a sports...

    To much psi

    If I run my Michies anything under 35, they look flat on the bottom and get very hot...so I run around 38-40 in both..helps with fuel consumption.

    Manual vs Auto

    In all seriousness... you be frank and I'll be ernest... ....when I lived in the big smoke, I had manuals and wished I had an auto as I was sick of changing 5 gears up and then 5 down again at every #$%^ traffic light...now I am in the outback (not a traffic light for about 600 miles) a Manual...

    Stiff tailgate on a Disco 2

    I use a spray on grease out here...great for getting into tight spaces with the little tube thing in the nozzle. You need to get it right into the workings and have someone open and close the door a little while applying it. Be sure to cover the bumper and carpet area while spraying. The grease...

    New and need bit of help please :)

    Hmmm...this poses a problem, because most of the answers to a mechanical question you will get will involve some mechanical terminology and need mechanical expertise to understand. What Slob has said is pretty basic and good first suggestions too, but to force oil out of your filler, means...

    HELP! Discovery 2 boot lock

    This is a standard security device that has become popular around the world. Single press only opens driver's door, to leave all the others locked so no one can pop into your passenger's seat as you are stopped at the lights. Its quite a big thing in USA and growing here in Aus. Helps reduce...

    Green Laning?

    Around the old wells were encampments that can reveal some old relics (other than me) which can be quite lucrative in value... not to mention the historical value of pinpointing the spot on current maps.

    I thought a narrow steel wheel and tyre would be lighter than a wide alloy and huge rubber. Perhaps I was wrong.

    Stoopid Question..

    Will 7.50x16 landrover series wheels and tyres fit onto the Disco 2? I thought it might be a better choice for me to have them for when I go away into the scrub that I can bash about and have truck strength sidewalls on these gibber stones and mallee roots that spike tyres with great alacrity...

    Yeah..great, until I got hung up on it climbing out of the creek bed because the idiot driver forgot to take it off when I ...er.. they dropped the trailer off earlier.
