Ok so this is a stab in the dark without pics...
I went eventing at the weekend, and as well as having a right giggle, I managed to give the v8 a bit too many beans and split a coolant pipe!
Problem I have now is that the local landrover guys can't identify the pipe I need without seeing the vehicle, but they're 20 miles from me and I only managed to get home by nicking the vaccum pipe and then blocked of the vaccum holes so don't want to be cavorting about in it unless I REALLY need to!
SO...
Said pipe is located almost at the highest point of the engine. It's on the left bank, and attaches to a metal pipe feeding from or to the heater matrix. The mteal pipe bolts onto engine and has a ht lead splitter bracket attatched!
From the metal pipe, it then connects in to the main / middle part of the engine (Plenum chamber?) and loiters directly above the location of the spark plugs at the front of the engine.
Problem seems to be that having a '95 disco, it was a change over year so there's epic confusion!
So I'm trying to find a part number to get a replacement, or if anyone can help massively, some dimensions to try and source a silicone alternative as it's obviously a weak spot!
