Test driving is the best way to find out what's best for you. When I was looking at getting a Land Rover, I considered Series 3's and 2's. Test drove both petrol and diesil and settled on a 1971 Series 2a petrol truck cab. Free road tax. Classic insurance £80 fully comp. Easy to work on...

the free wheeling hubs are AVM. I have the knocking noise with or without them fitted. axles are standard Land Rover Series 3. is there a test I can do on the UJ's?

Whilst playing in the snow. I've noticed a knocking noise when in four wheel drive. With the free-wheeling hubs set to 2x4 there is no knocking. With the free-wheeling hubs set to 4x4 there is a knocking noise, with the yellow knob set to either rear wheel drive or four wheel drive...

Thanks for the reply Old Sea Dog. I'll set my fuel adjuster at 2 1/2 turns out. What setting do you suggest for the ignition timing e.g. TDC, 3oBTDC, 3oATDC etc? when using a strobe light.

I have a Series 3 petrol with electronic ignition and a Zenith 36IV carb. What should I set the ignition timing at with a strobe light? I've searched the forum and found several different answer. One of which is 'by ear' but I don't know what would be the right sound! Also, how many turns...

I've bought an '82 rolling chassis. I want to build it to look original, but wondered if there were any upgrades or modifications I could do to improve things?

I thought a Tilt was when the whole roof was canvas.

online or mail order would suit me best.

planning a truck cab in bronze green with sandstone wheels and a 'canvas tent type thing' on the tub. can you tell me the correct name for the 'canvas tent type thing'

I have a '82 Series 3, what's the best paint to use on the engine and chassis? I want to use the orginal colours, can anyone tell me what they are? :confused: The chassis is gavanished (if that makes any difference to what paint can be used) I'd prefer to apply by brush, for both...

Purchased as a non-running rolling chassis. October 2010 My Jack Russel can't wait to go for a drive in it.

It fired up :):):) Stripped the carb down - there was water in the float bowl. Put the fuel line into a brandy bottle (the one I finished of last night, I didn't have any jam!) Put the screw driver across the solinoid, engine turned, bottle started filling with petrol, so pump and line...

Good tip. I'll try disconnecting the fuel line putting it to a jam jar and squiting fresh petrol into the carb tomorrow. bit too drunk at the moment :D I had already taken the air filter and hose off. Petrol is getting to the carb, but it's the petrol that was in the tank when I bought the...
