Just got my Landy 3 or so weeks ago and there are a few probs with it.
She's got a 3500cc RPI rebuilt engine and has done 6000miles since (out of warranty) on top sits a webber 500cfm Carb which was new when the engine was done.
Starts O.K on choke then dies quicky(lots of black smoke) until choke is off then sputters until warm.
when warm she's a pain to get going again although has never not started, lumition ignition fitted and elec fuel pump.
I've check the timing which is set at 6Deg BTDC(RPI Spec).
N.B just bought the Landrover Operation Manual Ref AKM8159 for the Series II & IIa from Amazon £38.00 + P&P 20 times better then Haynes manual and the cheapest i've seen usualy about £54.00 it covers 2.25 petrol and diesel and 2.6 6cyl.
Don't hesitate to ask for info from manaul.
