Seems likely esp if someone has been in there before. When I stripped mine you couldn't get both pins in at the same time, on reassembly i lined them up and all was fine

Sounds like you would be pushing against the tensioner to line up the hole so no big deal? When I had mine apart the top sprocket bolts were a bit mangled so it didnt line up perfectly

I have ordered from Autodoc a few times for otherwise hard to find parts, but like others I'm not patient so I don't use them unless I have to

I thought the input shaft was different but I maybe confused with earlier ones. Is the clutch plate definately in the right way around?

Put it on YT then link it here, we're going to need more to go on than doesnt sound right 😁

I have used them a couple of times and it's been fine. It's their prices that aren't fine quite often!

Still on points or electronic? Worth replacing the coil for what it costs, if nothing else you will then have a known good spare

What year is it? 10P/15P? Assume you have done the fuel purge? How about air bleed valve? Also you shouldn't be using any throttle to start it If you post here also then more knowledgable people than me will be along I expect https://landyzone.co.uk/forum/introduce-yourself.20/

My dad converted a S2 from petrol to 200di, performance was a little better and slightly noisier. But very good on fuel and more torque. 1st gear is almost not needed and most of the time just using 3rd and 4th

As mentioned above somewhere, defenders have taller tyres than a discovery too

There is a plate on the transfer box with the ratio, should be a 1.2 from a D1

You can't get both of those things at once unfortunately. To get a higher top speed (or quieter engine noise at cruising speed) would reduce the engine's performance on hills without changing down a gear. FYI the choice of transfer box affects this, the gearbox doesn't

RIP Dopey, condolances to friends and family

Also this is handy for getting oil into gearbox/transfer box/axles https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185937731934

Yes

Likely series plate to fit the input shaft with a daihatsu cover. But you won't know for sure until its apart

If your battery is a bit weak and the voltage drops under 10.5 when cranking then the injectors won't fire. There is also a thing with starter motor affecting something...CPS signal maybe. Voltage drop would be first suspect tho, and easy to rule out or confirm

I did this job back in the summer using the martrim kit. I didnt replace the sunroof drains (the little plastic boxes) as mine weren't damaged at all. It's worth cutting the hose rather than try and pull it off, there is enough spare length to push them back on when refitting. Most leaks are...

Did you check the A frame bushes & balljoint? How much play is there in the diff when rotating it? I think up to 45 degrees is "normal"
