Hi guys I see from time to time and some reviews on the net about 2.5 na diesels being able to reach 70-75,are these guys dreamers or is it possible? mines ex mil and does 60 downhill with the wind behind

I've done all but fuel and sedimenter have a feeling injectors may be a bit chocked up so will put some fuel system cleaner through as well
 
Mine will do 74 flat out but it sounds like its going to blow up. Sits at 60-65 no probs though.

Tbh the engine seems happiest in low box 1st,2nd and 3rd
 
My 110 will cruise at well over 70, doesn't sound like a bag of hammers, has a nice solid-feeling steering without any wobbles, and I can hear the wireless and the 2-way radios without any problems! :D :D

... And I get around 30 to the gallon!

All I need to do now is sort out and realign the passenger door!

She might not be one the prettiest, but she's one of the best!

... And she's mine!! :D :D :D

It must be a fake or the rattly bits have already fallen off.

My 90 tdi does 75 happily. Cough. Its the drifting that slows me down :0
 
Today I thought do or die and coosed the hell out of it for about 7 miles it has made a hell of a difference think it was because it was driven by a grandad didn't do very many miles a year and had what a kick of the tyres and a flash of the lights every year for mot now it's had a full mot and been driven on a bit it seems to have woken it up a bit
 
My exmod 110, after cleaning the fuel sedimisor and a new fuel filter, reached 120kph at which point I got scared and backed off. But as soon as I hit the Lincoln Edge on the A17 up to Cranwell its third gear all the way.
 
i really should clean my fuel sedimenter, might do that this weeekend. Any tips?
 
okay dokey, do you then just bleed the system same as when you do the fuel filter?

Probably not. I just popped mine back on, empty, and started the engine. All worked fine.

Be careful you don't snap the drain plug off though, they're usually stuck tight.
 
ok will add it to the list.

Interestingly i took mine for a good run the other day and its running like a pup, its accelerating weirdly fast..........

I am worried..........

Mine lives in 4th, soon as i shift up to 5th i invariably have to shift back down again. I live at the foot of the downs and everywhere from me is up!
 
cruised 25 miles at this speed for 3/4 of the journey, it was fine trundling along
