Evening all,

Just a quick post to say I'm just back from a road test in the 109 since installing my 200 tdi conversion, and wow, what a difference it makes.

I know that seems a bit obvious, but it's just so much more usable in every way.

I plan to make another thread detailing my problems and fixes I had along the way, but if that doesn't appear please just message me if you're in a similar position.

In summary;
Full strip and rebuild on a Disco 200 tdi.
300 tdi manifolds and turbo.
Relocated battery.
Custom exhaust.
Standard Series radiator.
No intercooler.
Oil cooler ports blanked off.
Standard gearbox.

Oh and not a single drop of oil or coolant! ...from then engine at least.

Yes, whipped out the thermostat before blanking. Where have you got the intercooler mounted? I've got a small one here but was just slightly too big to fit with the electric fan in place.
