Hi folks, I am currently fitting a hand throttle with genuine bits to my 90 but I can’t source the cover for the bracket in cab. See pics. (No5 on the diagram) Does anyone have one lying around I could buy? Cheers, Ben

Hey folks, hope you are all keeping well? Does anyone happen to have an intercooler pipe from an ex utility Td5 which had one of the travel power alternators fitted and are willing to sell? Its the i/c-turbo nearside one (two rubber pieces and the metal piece). If you have/had one you’ll know...

No mither mate. Many times I’ve been researching problems/threads thinking I’m getting somewhere then there’s no end to it which is damn frustrating. Hope you get yours sorted

So no euros then?

Do you take Amex?

Ahh I didn’t know that, legend swisstoe, nice one

I’ve got no pics yet but as soon as I’ve got a backplate I’ll put a pic on. I’m not going out and taking it apart now because I’m sick to death of dismantling it I can’t find the correct part number for my backplate. It has the single snail adjuster with the spring attached to the trailing...

The problem was there before replacing the stub. I replaced it to rule it out. I’ll try and find a replacement back plate just to rule it out I think. I can’t see why or how that will be the cause but I’ve got nout else to replace.

You’re telling me! Apart from the backplate there’s nothing left to change. I rotated the drum without the halfshaft in so it’s not a bent shaft (I had replaced it with a spare just in case) And it still binds. I’ve had the landy in stands, applied the brake with the nuts loose to seat the drum...

I’ve tried two sets of drums from bearmach and blue box company plus I’ve swopped the drum from opposite side too. If I hadn’t have done all of that I’d say drums warped but looks unlikely. Like I said the hub did appear to rotate eccentrically/oscillate hence why I changed the hub, bearings and...

Right, I’ll have a play with them and will update on the progress.... cheers

It’s my 1988 90 with rear drums but I have an ex utilities Td5 that’s been a bit troublesome recently too. That’s sorted but it’s the 90 that’s being an arse now

Cheers for the reply, I’ll give it a go. Can’t see why it’s just the nearside at fault though. Drivers side is spot on

Stupid phone. Try again. I was very surprised that the maf would be the problem. I read so many threads and info on the same symptoms as my Td5 and nothing seemed similar the would point to being the MAF. So chuffed it is sorted, it was bloody annoying!

I was very suprised

Got Td5 sorted, still got issues with the 90 rear drum brake. Never ends. The story goes like this... Nearside rear brake drum catches the shoes when rotating by hand. Tight-slack-tight-slack etc. It’s very evident under braking, I can feel a pulse through the pedal and when braking heavily the...

Just to put an end/result to this thread, I didn’t get round to plugging it in as I couldn’t get to my mates garage so I took peoples advice on the previous posts and replaced the MAF meter with a genuine VDO part and the problem is no more. Turns out the faulty MAF was aftermarket not genuine...

Okay I will see if I can get it plugged in tomorrow. The defender used to have an electronic hand throttle accompanied by its own ecu that spliced into the main loom in the landy, I assumed that may have caused the parameter discrepancy but I never considered the TPS until tonight. I’m my mind...

Yeah it does. I did notice a dribble of water on it tonight from the standard defender leak so perhaps this has got into the pointmeter. I did have it plugged in a few weeks back and two faults were present, one being noisy crank signal. I swapped the CPS with a genuine one and checked the...

Bit of an update, cleaned maf and map sensors as a temporary solution. No change. Put foot flat to the floor, revs picked up slightly then screams into life like someone flicked a switch and full power is restored then runs fine until I turn it off for 15 mins then problem happens again. Chap...
