    Alternative fuels

    I'm sure there must be threads on here somewhere about alternative fuels so rather than start a new thread about them, can anybody point me in the direction of old threads on fuel alternatives for a 200TDi plse? (I've tried a search but cam up with nought...prob me being useless) ....PLEASE...

    Smoky petrol on starting

    Got a petrol 90, so posted here as it is n/a. it runs well and starts well from cold but when it's hot it is a bit reluctant to start sometimes (not always). When it is reluctant it will then start with a big cloud of grey/blue smoke (no smoke at any other time). It's 2.5L with the twin choke...

    Craddocks/Exmoor - great service!!

    just thought I ought to give praise where it's due... I had an issue with a tilt I bought for my 90, I referred this back to Craddocks who in turn went back to Exmoor Trim. Having seen photos of my issue they offered and sent me a complete replacement. Excellent service and no quibbles.:clap2...

    South - fitters to put a 200tdi into a 90?

    Hi - anyone know of a good, not over expensive place to get a 200TDi fitted into a petrol 90 in the South (I'm near Southampton/Salisbury but within 50 miles or so is good)? Thanks (I know a lot of people do it themselves but I'm short of time/space/tools)

    CWS 200Tdi Kit - anyone used one?

    Has anyone here any experience of a CWS 200Tdi kit to fit into a petrol 90? They're not cheap but come with (quote) 'Everything you should need to convert' So by the time I buy a 200Tdi engine for say £600 plus all the bits I'm probably getting close to a grand, these have a 3 month warranty so...

    Shrunken exmoor tilt

    Bought a new Exmoor tilt last October - kept it tight all winter as instructed but it has shrunk a lot. So much so that there are now gaps by the b-pillar and it doesn't quite reach the end of the truck. The rear blind is now also 2 inches short. Pretty poor really. I've written to them and...

    Replace Ignition switch on 90

    I need to put in a new ignition switch as the one in there has stopped clicking back (I guess some spring has gone) and I've got a new unit for £26 so not bad. Trouble is the old one is secured with two shear bolts - for obvious reasons - and Haynes helpfully says use a chisel or suitable tool...

    200tdi with glow plugs not connected

    Hi - I'm thinking about putting a 200 tdi into my petrol 90 and have found someone who works on landys who has done a few of these. He reckons its not worth the effort of wiring in the glow plugs as the TDi is a great motor that will always start in this country without pre-heating. I'm...

    Tuning 2.5 petrol with Automotive Carb/cam

    I run a 2.5 petrol 90 and fancy giving it more grunt. Was going to go down the 200TDi (ex disco) route but am wondering whether to tune the petrol lump with Automotive Components bits. Reasoning is : - I put a replacement Automotive engine in about 11 yrs ago when I seized the original...

    Hello from a new member

    Hello - just joined today, had landies for around 14 years and often been a guest here where I've picked up a lot of info. But now thinking about modding the petrol 90 I've currently got so thought I'd finally join so I could post questions.
