Yea just read it online too From what i've read I can still have cars that are on SORN with no insurance as per many of us on here have "fixer uppers" for example. That would be a right pain for others who have the odd chassis laying around etc having to insure the chunk of metal. Although I...

as title suggests was listening to radio 1 today and they mentioned that soon all drivers will be receiving a letter stating that all cars wheher they r off the road or not will have to be insured. my plan was to let all the tickets and insurance run out of my rrc and trailer ir around after...

Hey Jai Finally got it going, see the link below, right at the bottom and its on the 2nd page. http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f42/how-about-odd-one-turning-engine-over-leads-non-starter-please-read-136024-2.html Just need to a gun and time it up and a few more fettles and tweaks and it will be...

IT WORKS !!!!!! I was using my mates distributor at the time, with amp and my new rotor arm and it fired into life immidiately (i was almost spot on). Then I had no oil pressure :(, fannied around trying to figure it out, maybe as my turbos off maybe its something to do with that, is their any...

Hi,yea I've been out 180 degrees too b4,forgot that 2 crank rotations was 1 rotation of the dizzy arm aswell.What I meant is that I couldn't get the the dizzy to point to no.1 when the crank was at the tdc timing mark (your first statement) and this is even before i did anything ... I've already...

Glad yo hear you finally got it going, before even repositioning the dizzy I couldnt get it to line up at TDC at no.rotated the crank just to make sure I wasnt going mad multiple times and it still wouldnt line up. I even changed the dizzy with new amp etc and I actually get a much better spark...

Sorry to butt in, i'm going to try this method tommorow also (to add to the big list of things i've tried) I'm thinking how on earth could it just decide to jump how ever many degrees but if others of you on here have experienced this. I shall try rotating the dizzy slightly also (marking it...

I am now also starting to think its a timing issue myself. Just been out in the rain and took a few plugs out and took out fuel relay (and the "in" hose just to make sure) and cranked her over to see if any fuel would spurt out the cylinders. It did not ... I re-fitted everything apart and...

I'd have to agree also, I am in diff lock 100% of the time on these pay & play sites, as I want to make sure that 100% of the time my front & rear prop are spinning at the same time. Most of the time i'm going up such an incline that the wheels are going to spin up and having them in Diff lock...

yes mate, 100%, granted yesterday I did get 1 & 8 mixed up on the cap, but I've had the haynes manual out using both diagrams to show where they all go and now I am 100%. I've actually got hold of a spare Dizzy so i'm gonna remove and replace and give a go, bearing in mind making sure car is at...

Hey, is your still running sweet on the petrol ? I'm having very similar issues to you, I even had a fire bomb fly out of the side of the plenum, inlet this morning. I'm confused, if you are getting a good spark ? (i.e. from the dizzy cap) how does that point to an ignition amp fault on the...

Hey No mate I've just made an updated thread actually, Pls c below http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f42/v8-non-starter-still-ref-have-i-washed-my-bores-thread-136586.html I'm in process of removing the turbo coz it's annoying Ive finally managed to change the leads, n plugs as the turbo...

I'm currently on my 2nd range rover, my 3.9 had a viscous coupling, and my current 3.5 has the manual. I'm told by many others that the "viscous coupling will do the job for me anyway" Problem with the viscous coupling that even though it worked fine, I do prefer my manual one because I know my...

In ref to thread "http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f42/have-i-washed-my-bores-135506.html#post1396487" I decided to go the whole hog and get a new set of leads, blue cap, rotor arm & spark plugs. Getting to the 2 spark plugs where the turbo is (was) has been a nightmare, had to put the 2 plugs in...

I'll bear that in mind, thanks :)

I'll have to nip down (quite literally as you are down stockingstone) or you'll have to nip up "once I get the thing running again :D"

Was at devils pit this weekend, entered a little "puddle" harder than usual then the bitch conked out. Bit of WD and then away we go, but then it conked out again when I hit another "puddle". Strange this as I went through a "mini lake" that was up to my wheel arches (thats where I usually let...

Today i stepped into my local halfords to pick up a haynes manual for a range rover, i didnt see one on the shelf which i found a bit odd. So i asked the dude there, he looked through a book and found they didnt make one for my 88 V8? I was like eh ? All I want to do is remove the windscreen...

lol, i only did it once, ill only hose it down nxt time when i get back from the tracks coz of the whole mud on driveway thing :s
