    Diesel Injection Timing S11a

    Hi, Bobsticle, I am the master of the understatement Turboman, I have approached a few local landy specialists, as you say no one wants to do it... those that do, just want to "have a go" and don't instill any confidence that they know as much as I do... By the way, just checked the tappets...

    Diesel Injection Timing S11a

    Hi, I am new to this forum, the timing or so I assume is somewhat less than desirable. The old Series 2a diesel 2.25 is smoking like a train, how I got to where I am. * When I bought it, about 6 weeks ago, it came with loads of receipts for the engine rebuild all machining work done last year...

    Another timing issue?

    Only done few hundred miles since full engine rebuild, starting to question whether the rest of it was put together well! I've seen others not fit piston rings properly before, don' want to strip it and won't until I have checked further, I really didn't want another project but I think I have...
