All the gars use the layshaft except 4th does drive engage in 4th ? if so it’s a layshaft problem or your synchromesh assy are broken, bad news whatever.

Hi, the alternator warning light is a 2.2w bulb this bulb should light up when the ignition is on, once the engine starts and runs the bulb excites the charging circuit and the system is up and running, well that’s the theory. Disconnect the multi plug into the alternator, (ignition on)there...

Hi Peter I agree with what’s been said about you’re clutch, Sometimes if the master cylinder leaks you can see the fluid beside the pedal. here is a link to a post I answered earlier, some of it might apply.(Carb) http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f6/mixture-55627.html

Forgot to add the Webber is an easier Carb to work on.:D

Those Carbs are prone to the butterfly spindle wearing causing an influx of air, most have been mal adjusted to compensate, check a few things first, some have an emissions valve which don’t seem to work( these can be blanked off) , 2nd check the base gasket isn’t leaking in air, 3rd check the...

I think you would know if it was stuck in 4X4 it doesn’t like cornering, an interim option as said earlier is to engage the free wheeling hubs if you have them. The beat option is to get access and check to see where the linkage is situated.

Hi, if the system hasn’t been used for a while the clevis pins and links can seized up, lube or strip down and lube. For the Overdrive, try what’s been said about the big bolt, if that doesn’t work remove the clevis pin at the end of the linkage and if the lever motion is still stiff you will...

Hi, On some of the older lift pumps you could strip them down and clean out, it sounds like the NON RETURN valves in the lift pump are leaking back , or you have a small leak. I assume you mean you have to prime the pump only not actually bleeding the pump or injectors. Try cleaning out the...

Hi, going off memory, you can interchange the S2 to a S3 bell housing, you will also need the S3 input (first motion shaft and clutch release bearing assy), you will have to discard the S2 clutch cover because of the raised boss, also check the clutch parts are the same radius!! The S2...

Once the oil has been drained, remove the transfer box oil level plug, fill up the overdrive gently until the oil starts coming out of the transfer box filler plug. :)

I agree with checking the oil first, if that’s ok, does the gears engage ok with the engine off? If yes the clutch might not be disengaging properly, the first motion shaft splines might not be clean allowing the boss to slide or the spigot bush is somehow snagging and continuing to turn the...

Sorry I cant help other than do you know the ratio of the Salisbury, you wouldn’t want to mix the ratio from front to back, it will give the centre diff a lot of work, off memory I think the standard are 3.54:1 but don’t know about the Salisbury (its quite easy to check though) I think you...

Hi as suggested I would confirm the switch is working, unplug the connector on the fan housing, connect in a new fuse and switch on the fan, fuse still ok? Check the connector for voltage, if everything is ok connect the fan wiring plug, if the fuse blows start looking at the fan motor assy. I...

Hi all, mostly the contamination comes from wear and tear, (or a permanently vented broken breather) if you think of the moving parts you have, diff, sun gears planet gears, bearings, shims etc. try looking for wear in your diff, that’s what the oil is mostly there for. There shouldn’t be any...

Are you sure its lift on your swivel housing? Possible wheel bearing, I know it’s easy to see the lift and the tell tale dripping gives it away. As said the bottom bearing might be past it. I assume the preload was done with the seal still out?

EGR, TD4 Hi all, just removes the vacuum pipe from the EGR and blanked it this morning, the results are a smother pickup in revs from 1000 on, I was thinking it could be the MAF that was causing the initial flat spot but this has made a noticeable difference.:)

Hi, there are two fuses under the bonnet in a small black fuse holder (right hand side) listed as left and right, you should be able to see if the wires are fed to where the fuse blades sit. You will also have to fit a relay and the on/off switch. Check your hand book for further info and...
