Mine was a bit chilly when I first got it, I found that there was no thermostat fitted ! Having put one in it gets pretty hot quite quickly, 2-3 miles. Also found the cable (outer part) to the heater box was broken so the levers were not pushing the heater to the 'hot' position (fixed...

Thanks for your suggestion re the Kumlo tyres, I'll have a look at those. So Back to the original question Hi Anyone had any experience of Wildcat XTR tyres on a 90. I was looking at BFG but was recommended this make as a better alternative. I'm planning to fit 265/75/16 on modular...

Hi Anyone had any experience of Wildcat XTR tyres on a 90. I was looking at BFG but was recommended this make as a better alternative. I'm planning to fit 265/75/16 on modular wheels to replace a set of 235/85/16 blackstar remold mud tyres currently on the vehicle (is there any market for...

Thanks for that, its the one I was looking for. Dave

Hi All There was a link which I saved (and now lost) to a site describing some things done to a defender. I was interested in some of the info on there. If anyone can point me in the right direction again I'd be grateful. It was a crimson colour defender, non UK plate and there were write...

Any more experiences of this type of water leak? Thanks Dave

I discovered the small tube between the turbo and the fuel pump had come off (or was never fixed properly when I got it) So its fixed tightly with a jubilee clip and theres loads more power now, as I was expecting. So its worth checking that. Mine is a disco engine TDi conversion and its very...

Thanks Patman Someone has done the bathroom sealant bit at the front but I'm sure thats it in this case, everything is dry there until I go forward on the flat. I think (as you suggest) a few more drain holes would be a good idea and sealing the guttering at the same time. I'll keep you...

Thanks for the input guys, its been raining so I have been able get a better idea. The inside of the seals on the alpine roof windows are dry so I think they can be ruled out (probably) Before moving the car the internal 'gutters' (visible from outside down through the alpine windows) were...

Mine seems to be 'crimped' rather than rivetted? looks like theres a bit of sealant at the two rear corners which looks a bit dodgy. Maybe I need to seal it all up? Whats best for that? preferably white. Apologies as well, I should have used the search facility as theres a few other threads re...

Hi All, nice site and lots to learn. Just got myself a 1988 90 county, and I could do with a bit of advice please. I have a bit of an odd water leak problem (I was expecting a few as I had a series 3 a few years ago). This is the scenario. Landy is parked on my drive with a slight...
