Mine been behaving, which is weird.........

137k 1 set of HG's and lots and lots and lots of petrol...... ;) :)

Vm's are alright the early 492's were/are gutless horrible things the 425 in the 1990-92 cars is better, the 200-300tdi being the pick of the bunch in diesel terms, quite rare though compared to the V8's. As for fuel economy with the 3.9 i'd expect 12-14 around the doors and up to 17-18 on a...

What carb has it got? Oil appearing there can only come from the rocker gasket or possibly a cracked head, it has been rebuilt by the looks it has ARP headstuds so I guess they would of done a 1/2 decent job throwing it together,

have you pulled the plug what condition is it in?

Luckily that doesn't happen on LZ... :cool: :p

That cork gasket looks suspect...

handles a bit better now.

Overhauled the EAS on mine a few times, spent a small fortune on it mechanically. Youngest P38 is 23yrs old you'd have to be a bit of a dreamer to expect it to be 100% reliable. EAS makes the P38 in my opinion, part of its character.. :p

3.0 is famed for crank failure, with the oil contamination and also quantity found in the sump i'd say your engine is past it... :)

New bushes me thinks!!! ;)

Hmmmm. I dunno I think I wrote it up in this thread ages ago. ;) :)

Ha Cheers Keith I still have a Disco 2, well most of it.. I'm still in shock ;) Nope.. Her replacement. :) Never thought i'd part with the P38 but it cost a fortune to run mainly insurance which was even at 24 £170 per month plus £40 tax around £200 before it had even turned a wheel. and I...

Sold it..

the front pump on an automatic is driven by the engine, this creates the line pressure for the clutch packs in the gearbox "put simply" if you tow it without the engine running you'll knacker it. Unless you put the T case in neutral don't tow it.. As for the oil disappearing, oil cooler cooler...

Drove it to work... spent the aft driving around in a mitsubishi shogun sport with my knees around my ears, always taken the space in the p38 for granted,,
