Hi all, thanks for the advice. If it helps, it only stalls at idle. But if you switch whilst driving along, it will run okay. Thanks, Rich.

Hi, I have a 3.5 V8 Defender. When switching over to LPG, the engine stalls. It was fine up until I filled up with LPG this weekend, which may well be a coincidence... But I'm not sure. At the moment I am just running it on petrol and it runs smoothly this way. Any ideas folks? Many thanks! :)

Great, thanks for the advice! :)

Well, it's smooth 90% of the time, but then almost feels like it catches on something and then gets past it... I'll give the WD40 a go though! Thanks. :)

Hi all, every now and then the power steering sticks on my 110 CSW. It happens on the move and only sticks for a split second – and then with the continued turn of the steering wheel, returns to normal. Is this a common problem?... Should I be heading for the cheque book? Thanks. :)

Many thanks for the tips. I'll check the distributor and vacuum tonight. Also, just to update, I started and drove the 110 on petrol and there was a huge difference! The power was definitely up and starting from cold was instant. It's been a learning curve for me, as I'm sure it will continue to...

Thanks for that Teflon, really appreciate your help on this one! Just going to print out all your advice and have a good read. Many thanks again! :)

Hi, some very interesting points there and very much appreciated. I'll try and reply with as much info as possible... Firstly, I've only had the 110 a few weeks and when I bought it, the owner told me he was only running it on gas and certainly wasn't starting it with petrol. He was starting...

That's great, thanks all! A few things for me to look in to there. Cheers!

Hi all, I've got a 3.5 V8 in my 110 and it's really lacking power. I'm running it on LPG, does this affect performance by much? I haven't tried it on petrol yet. Are there any common, obvious problems I can look in to? Many thanks, Rich. :)

Hi, could anybody give me some advice on fitting rear seat belts to my 110 CSW? It's for the row behind the drivers seat. Is there a way of having belt and chest straps fitted? Many thanks! Rich :)

Yeah, that's great. Thanks! Do you know what the quality of metal is like on the new panels, compared to the original panels on my 1986 110? I've heard the new stuff isn't as strong, but surely with technology, they are less likely to corrode?

I've been keeping an eye on ebay... Seems to be some crazy money being asked out there. Just spotted a pair of complete fronts wings, with minor dents for £300!!! Is it just me, or is that quite a lot? Thanks again! :)

Haha, no, don't start chopping on my count! I think I've seen that 90 in Woodbury, is it the moss covered one just up from the Maltsters? If it is, it does look pretty sound – noticed it a few times. Do you know the owner and if they would be willing to break it? Many thanks for the reply. :)

Haha, thanks John! :)

Basically there are two bolts that fit the step to the sill and these are just fine, both are nut and bolt. Then there is the support pillar that goes from the step a cross member under the car. The bolt that fixes this is the problem. I've fitted two other steps and had no problem getting the...

Hi all, I'm new to LandyZone, so I hope I'm posting this in the right place. Couldn't seem to find a wanted section. Brilliant website by the way, the best I've found for new owners. I've just bought a 1986 110 CSW and need replacement doors all round. The rear ones are the most knackered...

Haha, yes, that's the one! It's quite unique... Erm, let me re-phrase that! The bolt turns, but doesn't extract... Any better? :) I'll give the grips a go... and try to improve my working in the process!

Hi, basically I'm trying to fit some side steps and the bolt that holds one of the supports to the vehicle has only come out about 1-2mm, so it's tricky to get anything behind it. I found even a screwdriver wouldn't go. The bold seems a little bent and may well have been put in that way...

Hi, I'm trying to remove a bolt from the chassis of my 110, but after the initial loosening, the bolt just keeps spinning and doesn't move. I'm guessing the thread has gone, but any ideas how I can get the bloomin' thing out? Thanks! :)
