What have you done to your Landie today.

Broke down!
A strange one, would run fine along the motorway for 20-30 miles then conk out when I slowed coming off the slip, did this ½ dozen times over a few days, Thought it was a fuelling issue, tried the lift pump etc, but after a vit of trial, error and research, turned out to be the 90⁰ boost hose coming off the turbo delaminating and ballooning internally on the overrun and suffocating the engine!

All sorted now with some new hoses

Thats not a standard heater set up? What have you done? And what you used?
Thanks

Punto443 · Jan 21, 2022

Well it is a standard heater, just not standard for a 92!, but then it's no the right engine either

full puma bulkhead and dash. Thought I'd move the handbrake while I was at it too.

Was a bit bored, waiting on my clutch parts, so stripped down my spare box to see what state it was in?
Ordered some new bearings,seals and baulk rings for it. Other than cleaning all the guff off the casings, it's quite an enjoyable job.

Now I'm bored waiting on clutch parts and gearbox parts!

Seen that, td5 box. This one's just a spare, but a knackered spare isn't much good

Do you have a link for his channel? I'd be interested in watching a gearbox rebuild. Particularly an R380, seeing as mine is wedged out of gear...

Yeah, the old lever is just to keep the dirt getting in, and to check it goes into gears

Gearbox looks great mate. Workshop looks tremendous too. I think @marjon will be dreaming about it tonight

Your Landy looks in good nick. Seat box ends look solid. I know it's got a cover on, but looks ok.

What have you done to your Landie today.
