Ahhh ok I was looking and trying to work out what purpose it served as when I put my hand over the exhaust manifold end it felt like nothing was coming out. Might just re plum it in as I found it.

Cheers for the reply’s about the photos. Ignore the miss matches colours that’s on the to do list once I’ve started to do the complete restoration I’ve got planned ;)

Afternoon, looking for some help regards my 3.5 v8 on carbs. Was looking over it early making up a list of parts for mot and came across what I believe is the cover-heat transfer assembly, After looking though my workshop Manuel and parts number catalog. Now I’ve never seen one as this is my...

Ideal cheers for the reply’s. I’ll look up this battery box’s you recommended. To be fair I may just leave it as is for the minuet it had a little cover that’s been made to hide the battery and then do it properly when I rebuild it next year.

May sound a stupid question but on my 1985 v8 90 should the battery be located under the passengers seat like on my tdci 90? It is a factory v8 the Reason I ask this is that the battery is in a different location behind the bulkhead in the rear tub and when looking under the passengers seat I...

Thanks for the reply’s. Was there any v8 only colours for that year. I know Java green was but can’t find out anything about any other colours.

I’ve just picked up a factory v8 90 from a friend. I’m trying to find the colour options from 1985 as I’m planning on giving it a full on restoration in the next couple years. It’s currently a weird light blue which I don’t mind but would like to have it back to factory spec colours but can’t...

Hi sorry might be late to reply but I used Sussex defenders to buy my 90. He’s a genuine bloke and he knows his landys after speaking to him on the phone and him sending me extra photos I traveled 300 miles to look at it and done a deal. I travelled back up a week later after transfering the...

Sorry to revive the thread but recently found this company on Facebook and while the prices are very competitive how have you found the build quality? Thinking of buying one for my 90 and also one of there bulkheads I’d anyone’s looked at them if they’ve been up shows. I would go to Peterborough...

Morning Was out in my defender this morning cruising down the local dual carriageway when it just started surging like it would loose power then pick up again a second later up to that point on the B roads it was fine. Looked at the Rev counter that was staying in the same place not going up...

What make of tent is that and how does it fair up in our lovely British weather?

I was thinking more along the lines of getting a fold out tent just down to the fact that being a 90 I’m limited on space inside, and having abit of room on top next to the tent I can keep some essentials that aren’t required to be kept inside. Cheers for the suggestions of companies to look...

Ok so I know this has probably been covered plenty but on the search I can’t find the answer I’m looking for. so me and my girlfriend have just bought our Land Rover 90 defender and this one had a roof rack now we’d like to put a roof tent on it for going to rallys and exploring the uk and...

Ideal Thankyou for that. The new puma 2.4 engine is new to me so that’s helpful knowing that stuff! I’ll have a good look and may invest in a reader like you said.

Have you a link to it gmacz I can’t seem to find it? I spoke to the chap and he didn’t say about vat but I was going to double check when I go back to them.

That’s the one about the only newer defender that’s ever really caught my eye. I’ve already got money put back for some much needed work for the 300tdi sound stupid but I’ve found it’s handy having 2 trucks.

I looked at the rotor arm and it hasn’t got any build up on it and everything seemed tight with nothin loose on it. I gave the points abit of a clean up at the same time.
