Hi Dan - ive started the stripping on mine recently. Usual places/culprits but does look that bad TBH (famous last words). Might even start a quick thread although its fairly generic stuff and nowhere near of the scale of yours. Hope your work/tour is going ok - looking forward to the...

Hi - wondering if anyone can help. Ive been stripping my LSE ready for some resto work and have snapped a couple of bolts that hold the seat frame brackets onto the body. The bolts have a hex head (10mm i think) and are sort of bare/tapered (with no thread) at the end and it looks like they have...

Hi Dan - any updates on this? Heres hoping some progress has been made......

Thats the reason ive asked for photoshop mock ups, to help me make a decision.

Hi - mines about 150 miles away getting some work done so cant get any "actual" pics so have pasted a few, see, above. You wouldnt believe how difficult it is to get a good picture with the roof included!

Was after some help/information/closure please. The time is drawing close that my LSE will be getting painted. I have a strange idea/compulsion/delusion that my roof could be a different colour as are the new rangies. Could someone do me a mock up of mine just to help me choose whether its looks...

Brad - thanks for the detailed reply - exactly what i was after. My resto plans have stalled recently as ive lost the use of the workshop, however this thread have given me some much needed motivation. I may well go out and look at mine this weekend, ill try to get some pics up as my blue is a...

Brad(?) - looks like an amazing project, kudos for the level detail youre going into. I have a 1994 LSE too, just wondering how you found V8 developments to deal with and were you impressed with the work to the engine?? (im thinking of using them for the top hat liners) Also what colour code is...

Hi - not had time to check everything due to family duties but had 20 mins on it tonight. The car started ok and idled quite level for a few mins. I pulled the maf plug off which stopped/cut the engine out so assume this means the maf is ok? I then checked the air flow by putting hand in front...

Ive only just replaced the stepper today with new gasket and cleaned the rear (small bolt on part) plenum with a new gasket. Is this likely to be letting in air still? It was an approved part from LR direct. And the issue was present before the replacement, let me know if im still missing...

Hi - thanks for the swift reply I followed the steps on this page - http://www.roverparts.com/TechTips/Base_idle_setting_procedure.cfm The car will idle at 1500-2000 and cant be adjusted back to the 550-650 rpm that both pages list, when the stepper motor is disconnected, i assumed this would...

hi - I've been having idle hunting/ stalling issue with my classic 4.2 lse. Problem started as it came out of a garage after having some (non engine) work carried out. The only thing the guy did was to wind the idle down a little as it surged when putting it into park. Since then the idle has...

Hi - quick intro post. Just purchased a 4.2 LSE on an L Reg, Plymouth blue with dark brown leather. Needs jobs as all classics seem to, but have wanted one for about 30 years so have finally taken the plunge.Will no doubt be posting lots of newbie questions in the near future Cheers Matt
