Think the lower powered engines had the 1.6 tfer box.theres either a 1.4 0r 1.6 in the Ninety as it is, thinking its 1.4 as thats (supposedly??) what the army / LR fitted in 2.5nad Nineties
have Disco sized 205r16 tyres now but did have 7.50 16's (MUCH BIGGER) when we first had it (& that was with the luggish 2.5nad
it will happily 'pull' ~30mph in fifth gear up a hill now but the smaller tyres and 200tdi probably suit that
Rich.
36mpg!

I presume you've changed the speedo drive gear in the tranny box?

My old 110 that had 33s and a D2 box used do 35mpg easily enough on a run once wasn't all 70-80mph motorway speeds. Even towing my driftcar to the track, it used manage 25-27mpg on the trip.
The taller transfer box ratio makes a massive difference!
