Not 100% about that. I think it might be a 300, but not certain. One of the Tdi bods will probably be along later.Hey,
Sorry for the noob question, but is this a 200tdi engine?
Also should there be a fan + viscous hub on the front?
Thanks in advance
It appears to have ancillaries from several models with it.
And it should have a fan and cowl, and I think a cover over the belt at the front.
Tdis of either variant run pretty cool, so people often take the fans off if they don't do towing or very heavy work.
A post in Introduce Yourself is always welcomed by the locals!
It’s not a v8
hope that help in the process of narrowing it down.

I gave up cos there’s no spark plugs
so guessed it was a diesel that’s as far as I could get and asked my friend goggle, think 3rd on the list was Landyzone.J
It's a 300tdi engine with odd bits attached. The air filter and associated pipe work isn't 300tdi neither is the expansion tank. I'm surprised the air filter box isn't melted as it's damm close to the turbo.
The servo looks like it's from a left-hooker which is also mirrored by the PAS reservoir, the fuel filter is in an SIII location. The heater indicates an early model element, possibly 200tdi maybe earlier (SIII again).
Yes there should be a fan and a cowl.
Blue bulkhead and green wing ... it's deffo a bitsa.

Haha yeah it's a weird one, picked it up last week - https://www.tandtmotors.co.uk/used-...5-tdi-county-3dr-east-ardsley-202112220741834
Are the gearboxes the same on the 300tdi vs 200tdi, curious to find out what the previous owners have done to it.
Thanks for all your comments btw

Highly likely, although a 2.5 petrol would also be a possibility.

Well that’s confusing…for that engine should be right & down below 5th.
you have an early gearbox
Just checked the gearnob, it's deffo a LT77 - https://www.jgs4x4.co.uk/defender-gear-knob-stick-gear-knob-lt77/ (this)

The gearbox you have will be fine. Later boxes have longer bell housing so your engine will have to move.
Leave this alone all will be fine

There is no problem with those, provided you change the oil regularly, and use ATF, not gear oil.
