    Wanted Series: the gearbox parts that get replaced when fitting an overdrive

    I am after the gear and cover for the transfer box that get taken off when you put an overdrive on. I am taking my overdrive off so need the parts that I imagine a lot of people have sitting in their shed.

    Oh god what have I done.

    I cleaned up the parts today and quite a few would need replaced. Parts seem so expensive for it that I don't think it's worth it really. I am trying to source the cog/cover that the o/d replaces but no luck so far. I looked on ebay for them a while back and saw a few but can't remember what I...

    Oh god what have I done.

    When I got my landy the overdrive screamed like a banshee when it was engaged. When not engaged it was totally quiet. To get out of it you had to double clutch. Eventually, it broke completely and wouldn't engage at all but it still worked fine when not in use. Today, I decided to see if I...

    electrics

    I used a thing like that when I completely rewired my landy. It is behind the dash so that it will stay dry. Thick live going in from the battery then can just use however many of the outputs I need.

    My new insurance £72????

    I have been with Lancaster every year for a bit less than £300. 24 years old and a 200di so maybe that puts it up.

    Get yer top off!

    You need to think about seat belt mountings too. You can buy a bar specially for mounting them on for when you take the hard top off. I am always tempted to take the roof off mine but it's a faff. I'm going to get a soft top series at some point to make it easier.

    Is it possible to lubricate the shift action of the lever?

    Easy enough to remove the stick assembly, just four bolts after removing the tunnel cover. Then you'll be able to see what's going on better. I took mine apart, cleaned, the reassembled with grease.

    Found a solution to diesel runaway.

    Runaway is when it burns its own oil...

    both top and bottom radiator hoses hot

    Do you go off roading much? Even though the rad is new the fins could still be blocked up by mud or something. If you only use it on the road this is unlikely.

    both top and bottom radiator hoses hot

    I would think most likely is the radiator fins being bunged up with dirt. To clean them out I took the radiator off mine then blasted a hose through it. At a quick glance mine looked clean but after looking more I realised only about half of the area was clean! Might as well give the radiator a...

    red and yellow striped wire and red and blue

    Red and blue would be for the headlights originally. I gave up using the wiring diagrams because basically all series have non-original wiring.

    4wd not working please help!!

    If the prop is spinning from turning the passenger side then 4wd is not engaged. The reason for the driver side locking must be something else. Try backing off the brake adjuster on that side?

    Steering box oil capacity?

    Don't know capacity. Don't you just fill it till it runs out of the filler hole?

    200tdi. Smoke screw vs Full load screw?

    Update for you. It passed the retest! For the smoke I changed the air filter, gave it an italian tune up and put a new fuel filter full of redex on. The guy adjusted the pump a bit at the mot and I'm sure it runs a lot smoother than it used to. I had tried adjusting the pump myself but it...

    coolant leak , seems simple however isnt

    The valves are a pain in the arse. Might as well remove it, when would you want it blowing cold air out anyway? If it's hot just open the flaps under the screen.

    200tdi. Smoke screw vs Full load screw?

    Ok cheers I might give it a small adjustment and see if it makes any difference. Done carbs before but never adjusted and injection pump.

    200tdi. Smoke screw vs Full load screw?

    Bit of an update. I let it idle for a while then revved it really hard for a bit and after that it seemed to get a bit better and it hadn't even really warmed up yet. I might take it for another drive (again on private land, of course) to try and get more of the redex through the injectors. Is...

    200tdi. Smoke screw vs Full load screw?

    I'll take a video of it later. There is definitely black smoke at high throttle but to me it looks like normal Land Rover smoke.

    Replaced the exhaust. What a faff!

    I'm currently bodging mine together to get it through the MOT. I am very tempted to go stainless after this.
