Does anyone know what this is in english? I spoke to a Bolivian fella the other day (because he's worked on landies/Santana's all his life) about the horrible noise and dirty black smoke that my old girl is making. I sparked her up for him to listen to the engine and his diagnosis after about...

Before I take them out to give them a bit of a treat, what do I need to put them back in regarding washers etc? The manual tells me there are steel sealing washers with a corrugation, and copper washers too. What's that all about?

I've got massive engine knock and my badly sealed rocker cover is spitting oil allm over the bulkhead. I've got a couple of cork gaskets ready to replace the gummy ****e that is poorly serving as a gasket right now but I know nothing about setting the valves on my 2.25 diesel engine. Can anyone...

At about 4min45sec he says "I researched a ton to make sure I'm not that guy who does something really stupid." Then watch what he does, bless him hahahah

Mine, although I haven't counted them myself because I'm not there, has 10. I thought they had 9 or 11, innit? Just about to order new one, and thought it'd be an idea to know...

So, I have a Land Rover. I replace the brake drums because they are worn. Is it still the same Land Rover? Now and then other parts need to be replaced, so I replace them. At what stage does the Landy cease to be the same Landy? Does it ever cease to be the same one? I replace the chassis, the...

... I got number one and two out very easily, and replaced them even more easily. Number three, however, was solid. So, I gave it everything I had to loosen it off. Obviously too much. Now it turns but isn't going anywhere. Common problem? I can't seem to find another thread. What to do now?

So, a few weeks ago I had the same problem I have now. I changed the battery and it all went away... until this morning. It started as usual, on the thrid attempt, this morning at 7:00. It was very cold overnight and so I was happy it started so easily. I drove 5 miles. Parked up for an hour...

A quick question about the width of brake shoes... Both front and back drums are 10 inch diameter but are the shoes, therefor drums, wider at the back? Or will any set of shoes fit anywhere?

I'm not sure if any of you guys already know about the existence of this "competition". It's only in its infancy, but looks like it's growing in popularity. Well, here's a link - http://www.santanatrophy.com/#!english/cucr Not all Land Rover models are permitted, but worth looking at anyway...

I want them to actually work like... ebay link so, do you think they are a good buy? or do I go for some dearer ones? ... also, they don't have the curly element I'm used to seeing. So, are they to be wired in parallel or series? :confused face smiley:

I've been topping the oil up in the gearbox and transfer box of the '78 Santana I bought before Christmas, but I decided to change it all today. Having drained it, I ran a magnet through the old stuff that had been in the gearbox. She's lost a few teeth hasn't she? Still works perfectly in...

I've wanted a series landy for years and set my sights on buying one this year. After a couple of disappointments (people selling the damn things before I could even get to see them) I saw this one and went for it. I sent money up front (no more than I could afford to lose) to secure it, and on...

Hello all. Great to see that there's a forum with so many knowledgeable people. I might need some kindly dispensed advice at some time in the near future. I've always had a fascination with land-rovers, especially series, but I've never got around actually owning one, for one reason or another...
