i might be a bit out of date but pricey
Yes think it is a bit pricey, Ive asked if he wants to swap for a 300 Tdi, you never know he might.
id have thought that if a good runner more valuable
disco 300 tdi 80000 miles ran perfect before we parked it up in the field, cant be hassled to fit this in my series, as there would be to much to change / alter ect, would rather keep the series original anyway.
no the proper 2 .25 petrol is the perfect engine for yours a tdi would ruin it, but your 300 should get you a mint 2.25 as 300 more sought after
I should really get it advertised somewhere, rather sell it at a fair price to someone whos going to use it
yes you should,not forgetting all 2.25s are ancient so unlikely to be "a very good runner"
The reconditioned ones are a fortune, some look brand new, wish I was as clever as that.
they arent that expensive to recondition,price up new pistons and bearing sets
Yes I see them Pistons & Rings for Land Rover Series IIA/III (famousfour.co.uk) Petrol Engine Parts for Land Rover 2.25 | Turner Engineering
a rebore is likely near 200 now but if you had those bits id put them together for you for a few pints
if i can find a decent ish engine Mate Ill take you up on that but I will give you more then a few pints.
youd be welcome
lifes about helping each other
A mate of mine says he has one thats been in the shed for years, so not sure if it turns or not, Ill get him to get it sorted to have a look at it to see what its like then we can go from there. if its no good I will keep looking out for a cheap one.youd be welcome
yes if you have access to a complete unit ,thats your best bet ,its going to need a new alternator dizzy carb etc but a rebore and bearings may be necessary whatever you buy
OK Mate Im on a mission now to find one.
thought your mate had one
He does Illl get on to him tomorrow to get a god look at it,
it needs to be complete,then youve likely a contender
