I love my '99 K series FL. Bought it with 102 k on the clock. Needed some tlc but I found it easy to work on. It still has some niggles to iron out and it's in 2WD at the mo due to a shot VCU. I'd buy another but I'll stick with FL1. Maybe a V6 next time.

Thanks for that Nodge atb Rat

Greetings Sourced this timing belt for my K series from Land Rover Parts Shop . Com at £14:02 + VAT. It's cheaper than the tensioner. I'm used to paying around the ton for a timing belt kit. Has anyone used these belts? I don't fancy connecting the timing gear together with a toothed elastic...

Thanks anyway and I won't hold you to it :hippie: Cheers Matt Rat

RIP both lol I figured it would be expensive with new stuff but I'm surprised how reasonable they are. Do you have any idea what size spacer to use, just 'till my wallet stretches to the new wheels? Wanted some alloys to replace the steel ones anyway but I have other bits to buy first - UMPH...

It's not there then. I will have to get one. Wonder if the previous owner removed it after a hgf. More research is needed. Cheers Freelaner Yeh rgr on the pics Cheers Mad Hat Rat

Just out of curiosity, has anyone tried Evans Waterless Coolant? According to the haynes manual my VIN no should have the stat mod but I can't see the can anywhere in the engine bay. If I squeeze the bottom rad hose, the expansion tank level fluctuates. Would it do this with a stat fitted...

I spent 3 hours bendig half inch bars and splitting half inch sockets. Marina owner came past and asked what I was doing. He lent me a 3/4" socket set. 5 mins job done. The drive shafts from Rimmers were great. My only complaint was having to buy another socket as the new nuts were a different...

Hi alle Just purchased a pretend Landrover. One day I will own a real one but my Freelander will do for now. I am an ol' fart who lives on a narrow boat on the Huddersfield Broad Canal with my wife and 2 dogs for the past 5 years. It's a minimalist lifestyle but it suits us well. I hope that...

I live on the Cut in Huddersfield and it smells of wee too .... sometimes :-)
