1990 110, I have the male square type filler plugs on my swivel housings but I’m unsure if they are 11 or 12mm square. Or are they imperial? Is there a special tool?

does anyone know the difference between a steering drop arm for a lhd 4 bolt steering bolt and a right hand drive one? I’ve had one sent to me after having my box reconditioned and I’m not sure it’s the right one. I was under the impression that the master splines on the lhd were different. The...

been offered this gearbox for sale but the guy selling it hasn't used it and doesn't know if it's a four or five speed. He also can't find the serial number so I can't work out what it is without driving over there to see it. Any experts able to identify it from a photo?

ive got a V8 110 with a three pin fuel sender and I've managed to trash the petrol tank wiring loom and need a replacement. A quick search online brought up AMR 1493 which looks right but is for a two pin fuel sender. Any Petrol heads know the correct part number for the V8 loom?

my lt85 gearbox got very noisy recently so I decided to drop the oil to see if any debris was present. So I opened the drain plug and only about a quarter litre of oil came out. I filled the box with about 3 litres of 20w/50 about 6000 miles ago and there were no external leaks visible. Has it...

can anyone tell me the correct length belt for a 3.9 non airco but with PAS? Local auto factors don't know. Currently a 7pk 1853 on there but it feels way too short and is on its way out.

I got myself an SD1 manifold that's been modified to take a four barrel carb, but it's missing the heater outlet that bolts to the back. Has anyone got one lying around? Could also use a thermostat housing too.

I've got an LT85 box and 25D transfer box which I believe is standard for my 110 V8? How do I know what input gear to order for the transfer box without stripping it down? The van is in daily use.

Has anyone used a weber twin choke on an rv8 with any degree of success? Saw a modified manifold on ebay and it sparked my interest. After a quick google search I unearthed some threads on other forums that seem to suggest good low down torque and decent fuel economy ( for a v8)

The viscous fan on my newly fitted 3.9 serp motor is jammed on. No freewheel to it at all. Is this dangerous to run while I look for a good one?

Yesterday I buttoned up my 3.9 install. This is the biggest job I've done on the Landy to date. I checked and double checked all the connections, wiring, hoses etc, took a deep breath and fired it up. The oil light went straight out and after a few turns she fired into life. I started the next...

WORTH? If this is considered Spam then I will delete it. I have a 3.9 hotwire manifold, plenum, loom, ecu, maf and all the other bits which I've decided not to use. I was going to try to sell it as I've decided for simplicity's sake to use my trusty SU carbs on my engine. But how much should I...

Doing an engine swap. I've disconected the cooling system, electrics, fuel system, earth strap and removed eight bellhousing bolts as well as the cover underneath. Both engine mounts undone too. Am I ready to lift out or am I missing something? Starter need to come out? Not done this before.

I'm doing an engine swap on my 110, from 3.5 v8 to 3.9 serpentine v8. These engines use different Alternators. The current lucas one has a plug like this: Which has to connect to this on the new alternator Any tips? Two thick browns which I guess are B+ And a thinner brown/yellow? Battery...

Getting ready to fit my 3.9 engine with it's new camshaft. Can anyone recommend a good break in oil or additive that is available in the uk? Only finding US suppliers online.

Im fitting a Bearmach external fuel pump to my 110. Would there be any harm in fitting this to the chassis rail behind the spring mount in the offside rear wheel arch? It would be nice and close to the tank and fuel pipes, low enough to pull through the in tank pump aswell. Is there a better...

Defender 110 v8 on twin SU carbs. I'm having an intermittent fuel pump problem. One day it works, the next it doesn't. But on the days when it doesn't work my oil pressure warning light does not come on when I switch the car to start with the key. I have read that the fuel pump only switches on...

Ive aquired a 3.9efi engine from a rusty disco, well its actually still in the disco and running well. I want to fit it into my defender in place of the 3.5 low comp twin SU motor thats already in there. Is there a guide for what i need to remove from the disco (engine loom, ecu? etc etc)...

I'm having intermittent fuel pump problems on my carb 3.5 v8. I've changed the pump twice, but they both failed, or so I thought, but while running on lpg I can sometimes hear the pump come on. This led me to think it's a relay that might be at fault, but I don't know which one it is. Can anyone...
