Not the same thing at all. We had a couple, it is the fact that the whole pan is copper that makes them so fantastic for cooking. No more of the "burning up the side" situation. Totally even and quick cooking. which is why pros use them.

Just need to be used with a pink washer type thing.

🤣 🤣 🤣 My ex s-i-l, when still married, fitted an AGA in their bespoke kitchen. It ran some of the heating, the rest was underfloor groundsource heat pumped, which he could do coe they had the land and he could dig all the trenches and fit the...

Jesus! Deffo need anew caliper!!

..and the conclusion is: if you drive on the right side you have the bonnet release on the driver's side and if you drive on the left side you have it on the wrong side 😂

Next up, I had a look at the radiator front panel, and it’s a lot more ropey that I remembered. Not sure where I can go with this! I have a repair section for it, so I guess that would be a start!

I am mentioning this cos a disco one auto has one, or so it would seem from this thread. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/auto-fluid-level.299108/

Sounds like you need a new thermostat, do not take the temperature gauge reading as gospel.

After walking away from the strip down yesterday, I went back for more today….😀. Next up, I removed all the mounting brackets, then tried the the rear window glazing strips again. The tiny cross head screws were burred over and were impossible to...

Which of course is the reason so many are like that. Made to be sold to the vast majority of countries that drive on the righ!!

Norfolk, but travel all over for work. So anywhere between not Norfolk, Devon, Dorset or Hampshire is workable for me. But not scared of travelling for the right engine.

The lower oil pump filter bases shared the same bolt holes so you can swap filter housings between Rover V8's. The issue is that the filter will be mounted in different ways usually for clearance to front axle, chassis legs etc.

Possibly not, the thread's four years old !

My wife's car has a dipstick on the gearbox and the engine. Common sense, to me anyway, suggests that not having a dipstick is a stupid idea for lazy people who literally have no interest in what they are driving.

It didn't! Land Rover could have saved some money and not bother to fit the silencers to vehicles fitted with a cat.

After some work, I ended up with a little airbox mount kit to build. It felt like being a kid and getting an airfix kit to paint and build. A couple of the mount rubbers were separating from the bolts so really did need replacing. But a most...

It will only go on one way? Got me thinking now! I'll take it off again tomorrow and double check everything. Thinking about it again, the motor wasn't moved and I had to turn the flap maybe 10 deg clockwise to get the flat on the splined motor...

That's what my old girl looks like today, however, it is for the "O" rings. All done now, what a ball ache of a job!!!!

Have you looked at search engine on LZ?? There may be some answers for you?? Had my SRS lights on for a couple of weeks! Nothing wrong with any the electronic connections! But fixed by replacing the Air Bag Squib. Kev

Then it wont make much of a difference at all.

The new head arrived and I set it to the side until needed. Not wanting to damage the machined mating surface. This was a mistake as it turned out, because the couriers had been somewhat unkind to it. They had dropped the new head not once but...

Yes I have a cat fitted, would remove it but since it's illegal to do so I will keep it. I guess it makes a big difference without a cat.

Have you got a cat fitted? Try sitting at 70 for 3 hours. They make a huge difference.

It's stopped doing it now before I could have another listen.

Hi, need a bit of help with cabin heating, I can put the controls to hot on both sides but I get a barely feelable warmth, engine temp never seems to get past a quarter on the gauge. It's been bled but still no change, even putting a/c on in...

Hello folks I have a 1985 landy 110 , 99 D2 TD5 and a disco 2 auto. My first landy was a 72 series 3 truck cab that I bought many years ago then sold it as i past my test for something a bit faster (what a fool) over the past few years iv had a...

You all may recall I had the book up and nano saying pot fault right hand blend motor? Today, I have tackled the job and soldered in a new pot that I got off kermit_rr, bit of faffing about as the pot drive is 90 deg out but simple once I...

Seems a universal agreement, don't buy cheap glow plugs! Thanks for the email and attachments. I might just be too fussy about the hesitation on starting and more grateful that it starts? I am getting used to the relaxed forward motion and to be...

for some time now have had the srs light on, but still able to drive. Then the seat belt warning started when driving it was suggested that I use contact cleaner on the belt holder but its not that simple as it does not seem to be a straight...

Yep, all the vids I have watched are on LHD vehicles.... that looks easy enough.... ah, not so easy for RHD, doh!
