Hello , yes a own a multimeter, thanks for your reply i will have a look at where this output is this afternoon :-) I suppose if it doesn't read anything i will have a faulty alternator

hi there, I need some help to sort out why my batteries are not charging. I don't know how to test if the alternator is giving voltage... the series 3 is a ex-military version with the 24 volts system , alternator the AC5/24 model (31 amps at 27.5V) model if that helps. Wiring is connected...

Thank you problem sorted out now, cleaned points and rewired ht leads to distributor. Took it out today and runs fine except that i might advance timing to get more power out of her. Kevin

plugs are brand new , i have to check if the leads are ok... has there to be no resistence when checking them with a multimeter?? coil and dizzy are from the belgium army and waterproof (24 volt ignition)

hello there, I need some help from the proffesionals to get my 2.25 good running again.. This summer it got registred and ran 400 km without any problem ,starting fine and never missed a beat. The day after some offroading i had the choke which wouldnt open , which described why it ran very...

hi Blackburn in fact i had already taken the carb out at that time , but thankyou anyway:) i have cleaned it now and have put it back together , just need to order some parts as choke cable won't pull and a piece of metal from the throttel linkage snapped.... i hope a cleaned carb will correct...

Yes i forgot to mention that fuel supply is working well (new pipes+pump) i had a look at the air filter , is was full of dirt -.- while the engine was running , the filter was diconnected i think i will have a closer look at the carb and clean it then once i get the time thanks anyway

hi there timing is set with a test lamp ( made out of a used s3 brake light :D) at 7 ° btdc. made some road test and there was a power difference from the TDC..... i suspect a carb issue , maybe a blocked jet ??? what do you think i havent't changed anything from where it ran very good , it...

hi all, so i have the current problem that my series 3 isn't running as good as it was before ... It idles quite fine but won't accelerate/go up in revs like before :/ Maybe it is running on 2 cylinders ??? The ignition is set at 7°BTDC as she is running on 95 octane fuel + additives . It has...

100 psi seems very low... Mine showed around 158 psi on all 4.... (has only done 25000 km) New is 160 psi i think.

Swivel I would say, even thou you have these leather swivel protection like I have .

hi there , the strange thing is that i don't have a charge light at all :( it only has an ammeter in the middle of the dash board ( next to an oil pressure gauge) which could show you if she is charging..... Next thing is that the voltage doesn't reaches 28 volts ( even when accelerating and 2...

Wow lovely example :)

Thank you :) just one minor problem with the batteries(2 new ones) not charging but i will manage that ;)

yep , I keep them dry in my shed :)

They are black out lights , used a lights that only could be see when you were right behind . There was no chance that planes could see you :D That was the front axle :)

thanks guys :D

Yep after 3 years she is finally on the road. She came from the Belgian army and left the factory as 4x2 ! :eek: (24 volt model) That's why i got her for cheap 2800 € (nobody wants a 4x2 Land rover) but converted her then to 4x4 ;) When i got it engine bay For this...

all sorted out now ???? vacum brake pipe has to be connected to the brake servo unit ...:-)

The owner before didn't make lots of trips with it... once a month perhaps . But it was kept dry in a garage for approx 10 years. When i got it it was smoking blue , later black , and now nearly no smoke at all (except with choke pulled an foot to the floor) Carb wasn't set up ... I don't...
