    Petrol inline check valve

    Has anyone fitted a check valve in the fuel line of a Thor V8. I have a new valve and 8mm pipe but not sure the best place to fit it. It drains back overnight and takes a few minutes to fill up again. I have fitted a new pump in the tank but its not changed things.

    P38a Cooling A|C Fan Mod Question for Datatek

    just bought P38. few small issues

    Having had many landrovers over the last 40 odd years, it will not beat me. Its just that these new fangled things are all electrical. My first series 1 had lights and a coil and that was about all that sparked.

    Air Conditioning

    The P38 i have just bought has no aircon so went to get it gassed today and found it had a massive leak. turns out the pipes were not fastened in the side. I can assume from this that the condensor is fubbered. So ordered a new one, my question is, when I unbolt the condensor is it easier to...

    Thanks Wammers, I have checked every fuse under the drivers seat and they are all good, I guess it must be a wire connector somewhere, just hoped someone might have had it before. i will check the SRS bulb as only 1 lit

    90 with LT77 jumping in reverse

    I have a 200 tdi 90 with a LT77 box and a disco transfer box, When reversing it feels like a prop is falling off by the way it jumps. Its fine forward tho there is a vibration around 50 in top or 40 in 4th. I have fitted a new rear prop and new uj's in the front one. There is a bit of play in...

    Changing Transfer box to a Disco one

    A Good swap I changed mine in my 200tdi a couple of months ago and it makes a good difference on the motorway. Not sure the fuel economy is any different but can now here the radio at 60_70. You need to drill and tap 2 holes for the handbrake or drill the bracket so the original hole on the...

    japanese reimports

    Im greedy, got two ex jap imports, my 3.9 1994 and hers 300 tdi 1997, both totally rust free. Waxoiled them so should last for years. Take no notice of the mileage but both mine are in really good condition. £4000 for a good as new disco 1, seems cheap to me.
