anyone replaced their OEM fuel pump with a Bearmach pump. Is it comparable or do I have to raid the piggybank for a Siemens one?

hi guys, just replacing the front doors of my 110 TD5 and having painted and put them together I have found that the new doors dont have the lower mounting points for inner door panel. See pictures. I am assuming that they must have changed the design at some point though these doors are correct...

since fitting my rebuilt engine over a year ago I have had an annoying rattle that other TD5 drivers have noticed and have commented on many possible causes. The rattle isnt causing any problems with the engine running but I would like to get to the bottom of it. Today I used my new stethoscope...

About two months after putting my engine back in after a-full rebuild and using an AMC head it started to be more rattly than usual, enough for other people to comment. The thing is as it hasnt seemed to effect performance over the last year I dismissed it as probably being a rattly idler...

Found two marks on the CAV fuel pump spiggot when setting up my timing. One is the usual indentation but next to it is an F. My instinct is to use the indentation but I cant see anything that describes the timing mark in the Haynes and dont have the RAVE for 12P/19P engine so im not sure if it...

hi everyone. Ive searched the forum for PAS faults but cant find anything that describes my problem. Nearly killed myself today overtaking. PAS on my 110TD5 is fine under 50mph but any faster and it seems like righthand turn is instant but lefthand turn has a lag. Feels like I make a quarter...

Does anyone know if you should or shouldn't use black mastic or blue hylomar seal with a rocker seal gasket on a TD5 engine. Had my lump professionally rebuilt last year but have had a persistent oil leak that I couldn't find. With the help of a phone camera I can see it is the back of the...

This road has been closed by a TRO for a number of years but I had a conversation today with someone who said the TRO had expired and hadnt been renewed. Ive looked on line but cannot find anything about the green lane later than 2015. Does anyone know if it is still closed or if it is now a...

Ive had a look on old posts but havnt found the answer. Got a shudder, only slight 45-55 mph but its not consistent. On front axle Ive new bearings, stub axles, cv joints, brake calipers but old disks ( which were fine before and have plenty of wear left) and a full refurb of the steering swivel...

ive made a stupid schoolboy error. Had the timing belt out of my 2.5na (not sure but think its a 12j engine) and had a mind funk when I put it back together. Got the injector pump and crank lined up at TDC but must have not done so for the pulley for the valves as when I Turned it over to bleed...

inspired by a GWR poster I am thinking about doing a road trip from The Hafod Hotel in Devils Bridge in Mid Wales to Istanbul in my TD5 110 summer next year. Perhaps some gentle off roading near the start and a nice drive down through belgium, netherlands Germany czech rep, Austria Hungary...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-45597902 Pretty obvious but I would not have tried to ford a river in spate in my prepared landrover unless I really had to. I would never consider doing it in a standard road 4x4 (fortunately no idiots were harmed in the making of this video)

always been proud of how bombproof my TD5 has been despite how badly I have treated her she has tried her hardest not to let me down even running on for six months with a cracked cylinder head (with a bit of steelseal.... I have since rebuilt the engine to as new factory standards but with an...

have had the engine completely out of my landie for clutch fork replacement. I replaced a leaky injector pump at the same time, Engine is reassembled and back in the truck but obviously, there are issues of getting oil, water and fuel to where it should be is there a guide anyone knows of to...

having a dumb moment, have had the lump out of the landie and when putting it back in have gone completely blank on which terminals which wires go on the starter motor. anyone got a photo to help me out?

Im not familiar with the 2.5na engine but after my TD5 engine rebuild I am returning to work on my project 1986 90. I have a leaky fuel pump and bought another from a member of the forum but a chance chat in the pub suggests its not as simple as unbolting one and bolting the other in its place...

having sorted out the snagging and leaks on my rebuilt TD5 engine I have noticed a weep from the side of the PAS/water pump housing. There is a small drilled hole in the housing which is weeping a small amount of coolant after the engine has been running. When I got underneath i noticed a couple...

anyone in West Wales got a nanocom for a TD5 defender I could borrow to find out why im having difficulty starting my remanufactured lump

Hi guys is this the right nanocom for my 1999 TD5 https://www.nanocom-diagnostics.com/shop/product/ncom01

Hi guys. Just put my rebuilt TD5 engine back in the 110. Unfortunately one of the bolts on the fuel pressure regulator stripped the thread in the brand new AMC head. Torqued it up to the tight values and it popped. Other two bolts are ok and I can get a turn on That bolt but cant do it up tight...
