I'm not getting any overheating problems but I notice that whenever I'm parked up (engine not running) my fan is really tight. You can just about turn it with two hands and a good bit of effort. However when the engine is running it spins properly. Just wondered whether this is a normal thing...

Hi everyone, I'm reading lots of conflicting advice about the position of the washers on the bottom bushes of the rear shocks on my 90. A lot of pictures on here showing how people have them no longer load either. I've attached a picture which is how the manual appears to show them - but then...

Only just started happening, if I'm for example approaching a roundabout in 5th and knock it into neutral the engine cuts out. Other times if I'm going from 5th to 3rd or 4th the revs drop and it almost stalls but when my foot comes back up off the clutch it's okay. It's very random and...

As the title really, I have the chance of some cheapish 255/85 r16 tires and wondered whether it would cause problems on my 2.5TD 90? I currently have 265/75 but with them being 2 inch smaller I'm wondering if I will die through lack of power? Anyone seen or done this? Many thanks!

(searched but nothing quite matches my query) The rear springs on my 90 have sagged quite a bit now so I want to replace them. Trouble is they're so rusty and flakey I can't see what colour they are. My fronts are yellow/yellow which are Defender 110 springs. I don't want to loose any height so...

Hi everyone, I'm wanting to put a fusebox somewhere to power items in my MUD dash and any lights etc. which I may get in the future. I was think of getting this https://simplysplitcharge.co.uk/fuse-box-distribution-kit-with-ready-made-leads-10-way-fuse-box.html and putting a relay in it so that...

Very very limited electrical knowledge so bare with me. I have a MUD dash console which will just have 3 new gauges and a usb charger in it for now. But to future proof it for a head unit and other bits at some point I thought I'd run a new circuit from the battery into a fuse box behind the...

I keep going round in circles on this despite searching everywhere. I want to fit an oil temp sender into the sump using a sump plug and oil pressure sender via a T piece on the filter housing. I've searched everywhere but can't find the actual thread size of the sump plug or the thread size the...

Hello everyone, I've had a lot of play in my steering for a long time and it was becoming a skill to drive with it. I checked underneath and everything looked okay so I tightened the Allen key on the steering box up a bit. (front wheels off the ground facing forward) The play went away but...

Hi everyone, I've just finished cleaning my handbrake drum / replacing shoes. However, I'm left with a bracket which doesn't seem to fit anywhere. I can remember taking it off with the drum but not exactly where. I've included a picture - if anyone can tell me where it goes I'd really appreciate it!
