    Rover T series (200HP) engine in a Freelander?

    Hi, Have any one ever made a conversion rom 1,8K engine to a 2 liter Rover 620 turbo engine in the Freelander? From pictures, the engines look similar, but I haven't had my hands on a T engine, so I don't know. If it's possible, I'm getting a 620 or similar from UK and brings it home to...

    Probably cylinder head gasket again

    Probably cylinder head gasket again

    The strange thing is that it isn't as you describe, but the opposite: On the front side (exhaust), the liners are above the block surface and on the rear (intake) side they are below the surface. Not mutch, but noticeable. The cylinder head has not been over heated since we purchased it...

    Probably cylinder head gasket again

    Ok, now the cylinder head is off. Cylinder liner # 3 and 4 is too low in the block. On the front side (exhaust), they are above the block surface and on the rear (intake) side they are below the surface. Not mutch, but noticeable. So I believe it's just to rip out the engine and put on a...

    Probably cylinder head gasket again

    I'll be back with info. Does anybody know the answer on this? It it correct that if the pressure in the coolant system is too high (like from a HGF), the thermostat refuses to open?

    Probably cylinder head gasket again

    I'm experiensing blow-outs from the cooler tank. I'm monitoring the coolant temp with Hawkeye and I have also a water temperature gauge on the lower radiator hose, just ahead of the In-line Thermostat to monitor when the thermostat opens. The monitored engine temp rises to 103°C and drops...

    Another ABS/ETC/HDC lights thread!

    It dies not show on the pictures, but the wires from the ABS are special. They all are white with black stripe. Look at the other side of the multi plug, and you'll find them I guess.

    Another ABS/ETC/HDC lights thread!

    As I mentioned: 950-1150 Ohms If the sensor is within that range it's ok. But if a diagnostic says its faulty even if the Ohm is ok, there is a great chance that the reluctor ring that is ficed to the shaft needs to be cleaned...

    Another ABS/ETC/HDC lights thread!

    ABS Sensor resistance is 950-1150 ohms An easy way to check all sensors, is to disconnect the battery, and then disconnect the multi plug from the ABS unit and do the measurements from there. I've got some pictures showing where to plug your multi meter...

    Freelander ABS fault code help

    Hi, How did you replace the Throttle pedal switch? I'm locating it, but can't see where the lead ends up. I have a 5E13 error, and from the picture I snapped when the T4 was connected, I suddenly realized that the C1147 code was presented as well. So I'm trying to interchange the switch from...
