Evening all,

Have to ask as I don't have a bloody clue

Can I use my current/old main petrol loom/harness with My Defender 200tdi engine I'm soon to install. The 200tdi has the engine loom/harness so hoping all ok?

Cheers chaps

Wayne

,not difficult to modify ,coil feed becomes pump solenoid feed and other wires do as they did may need lengthening

Thats good to hear, mechanical side seems straight forward enough but its always good to get input and advice from others as I do sometimes have a habit of putting a foot wrong and losing my patience :doh:

i just changed mine from a 2.25 petrol, its mostly the same as the td but the exhaust needs changing and you have to mod the flywheel housing you cant use the petrol one. you might need to change your battery and starter cables.

i just wish i had brought a complete doner vehicle and not just an engine

mine is not quite finished, i have started it a couple of times but it still doesn't have a complete exhaust and i broke the rad so need to replace that now
