    200tdi Temperature Switch to Activate Fan

    The purpose of the fan is to provide extra cooling if the water temperature AFTER the radiator is too high. So the best location for a temp switch is after the radiator. If you locate the switch in the thermostat housing the fan would switch on too soon. Some people use a kenlowe probe with...

    Front Vent Seals

    Replaced the rubber ones last year with sh*tpart ones. They didn't fit very nicely and leaked a lot. My parts supplier suggested rubber seals from Allmakes. I replaced the bp ones with the Allmakes seals and they fit perfect and do not leak. Be sure to remove any adhesive residue from the...

    Dreaded temperature.....

    Try to fit a new wire from the sender to the gauge. Had the same problems with my 200tdi conversion. Readings of red hot after 3 minutes of driving, fluctuations between 1/4 and red and back in a matter of 30 seconds. Changed the sender, changed the gauge. In the end I made a temporarily wire...

    Anybody making defender door decals

    Are you looking for this? (image is low resolution!) I make signs/decals/stickers for a living but cannot print this on my printer (printable area is only 12 inch wide but that does the job for me). Did the drawing based on an image in the parts book and some measuring on my own 90...

    PAS pressure hose?

    Do you mean the pump or the steering box? The partnumber for the pipe from pump to the steering box is NTC8193 (RHD). It's for a defender 200tdi, but I guess it would also fit a disco pump. Than there is the other end. What kind of st. box do you have? 4 and 6 bolt boxes have metric thread, 3...

    Wolf TUl HS 300TDI Help

    Just came back from the workshop. The spare steering guard is not for sale. It's there if one of the wolfs needs a new one. Over 200 wolfs have come trough the shop, but it's still there. Another 80 or so to go, and if it's not used after that, it's going back to Germany. Also the thing was...

    Project KAHN Defender - Shoot me now.

    Yep, it's totally up for it's task: - nice bar to fit the radio equipment on - low entrance, so they can have a fast retreat - small spare wheel on the bonnet instead of a side mounted spare for excellent front and rear view - no lamp guards for more light - no towing hitch, as those...

    Wolf TUl HS 300TDI Help

    I think it is. There is a steering guard set lying around in the workshop. It comes from the MOD and still has the land rover decals with partsnumbers on it. Will have a look.

    Wolf TUl HS 300TDI Help

    Charlie, what photo's do you need exactly? Friend of mine is currently working on TUM's. I think the electrics are the same as on a TUL. He has several vehicles in his workshop so it's quite easy for me to take the pictures you need. Joachim

    Electrical issues

    Heavy foot and cheap fuel? ;) No kidding, fuel sender also heavily depends on correct grounding. Don't have my schematics at hand (lying somewhere in the workshop at the other end of town), but I think there is a earth wire to the sender and also to the gauge. I took a picture of the sender...

    Electrical issues

    Learned something about landy wiring, it all comes down to grounding. It seems that your dashboard lacks grounding. Get it out, and look for black wires. Take your multimeter and set it to measure resistance. Put one cable of the meter on the - of the battery and the other one on a terminal on...

    lorry side swipe protection

    The indicator triggered idea is a nice one. During inactivity there will be no annoying beeps. I think it will be easy to adapt into the lexguard system. Have a look at .:LEXGUARD:. and click on the union jack at the top for the english text. As I look at the image on the product page they also...

    lorry side swipe protection

    Well CJ, I live in the netherlands, and as might you know, we have a lot of cyclists here and terrible accidents between lorries and cyclists happen here everyday, esp. on these cramped roundabouts you find in all our cities and villages. So our government has taken an active role in preventing...

    temp sender disco 200tdi

    Mick, steve parker sells two types of senders for 200tdi disco engines in defenders. The disco engines used two types of thread. So you have to determine if your current sender has coarse or fine thread. If it has coarse thread it seems that you can also use a 2.5 n/a sender (PRC6663). You...

    Basic p.a.s. Plumbing info needed

    Had a quick look under the bonnet, and I think you are right. Large pipe to the pump (low pressure), small one to the larger fitting on the steering house (high pressure). Be aware of the differences in thread between 4/6 bolt and 3 bolt houses. 3 bolt house has imperial fine thread, 4/6 bolt...

    LHD to RHD nightmare or not??

    Beasty, to answer your initial question. It's a lot of work, but it can be done. I did it the other way around. RHD to LHD conversion on my own 90 and a friends 110 (both '85). I think it's basicly the same. If you need parts, try the continent. Here in the Netherlands are a lot of imported...

    Best paint removal method...

    Did it with chemical paintstripper. The most agressive I could get (unfortunately it 's now forbidden, thanks to EU regulation). It worked very well on the alu panels. But on the steel bulkhead I had to sand. The tub and sidepanels took me a day. Bonnet, wings and front also a day, front doors...
