My1988 90 CSW has got lots of holes in the front cross member so I want to fit a new one. To make sure I am looking at the right bit, it is a round section 100 mm diameter which bolts across the chassis via two oblong plates. Where do I get the best deal and is it an easy job to do. It looks...

Hello mud pluggers, Just got home from the balloon fiesta in Bristol which has finished in a bit of a washout. The trailer parks were very muddy and the only way I could get to our balloon trailer was to reverse up a short incline. I tried reverse gear, low ratio at a slow speed and only...

At last I have cured my smoking problem on my 2.5td 19J, 90 CSW. I had Diesel dripping into the air intake via the turbo when doing low speed manouvres or when idling at traffic lights etc. When I pulled away and the turbo cut in I would get a huge engine rev with loads of black smoke (...

Sorry but I've got to go to work now. I am looking for a spares cd thingy for my defender 90 with a 19j engine the part / parts I need are on the side of my fuel injector pump and I need to identify them and order them.

Hi all I posted a thread yesterday " turbo question" and had lot's of useful help. The outcome is that I am getting diesel dripping through the boost pressure pipe into the turbo and then into the inlet manifold. This is what causes my 2.5 19j engine to rev and smoke after idling and then...

Once again I need advice from you great sponges of knowledge. I have a 2.5 td 19j engine in my 90 and am pretty sure that the turbo oil seals are on the way out.:( I have read all the threads and done all the other tests like the last one POS said with the dipstick tube (there was no spitting...

Here goes, probably been asked before. I am fairly new to Landyzone and have been looking at lots of forum threads for my own use. I have found some really good ones that I will want to refer to at some time in the future. Is there any way I can store threads for easy future reference for my own...

The heater unit on my 2.5 td leaks a bit more than leak sealer will probably cope with. Can I remove the whole thing for the summer months and try and repair it ( can this be done easily ) or get another one from the scrappy. Would I just have to by pass the hoses with a bit of copper tube ? Is...

To my absolute astonishment I have found that after removing some fresh waxoil covering my chassis, thoughtfully done by the last owner, I have some holes in it. You are already doubting that anyone would do this but yes it is true. What thickness of mild steel plate do I need to get ? How big...

Hi Can anyone help ? I have had my 1988 90 td for over a week and have still got this occasional smoke problem which I posted here before. I have read up on lots of previous threads but can't quite get myself a good answer. I have changed the oil, oil filter and air filter, oil level just...

:confused: Before I ask for help on the main smoking problem I have on my 2.5 td engine can anyone tell me what happens if a glowplug does not work on start up. For instance does the exhaust smoke really white for ages ? Thanks

Hello to you all. I have just bought a 20 year old 90 td station wagon. I did all my research by reading threads on this web site. Lucky for me when I bought the thing I had my wife with me to ask all the right questions such as. can you get a cover for the spare wheel and will the stains come...
