I have a brand new pick-up. It’s excellent. I specced it exactly how I wanted. It doesn’t put a foot wrong. I don’t speed in it at all really - pointless. I then drive my disco 300tdi. Quite long in the tooth. The disco you concentrate more, you...

This^^. I am in exactly the same position and could not have put it better myself. 200tdi 110 has been my daily drive since I was 18, I do about 30k miles a year, and the wife's car just feels terrible to drive. they are perfectly capable of...

It turned up. Don’t make em like they used to comes to mind. Does anyone know if I can drop a mini cartridge straight in? I’ve only standard size her but would like to order some that fit this trigger wanner. Ta

This is perfect advice!! Your chassis may be clean on outside but if it’s dirty on the inside on the weld area you will end up with fireworks down your sleeves and weld contamination. This may end up with you chopping out a tad more than you...

How you getting on? Dippybud is referring to the end of sill to bottom of wheel arch tie in panel, it’s a bit t of a fiddle to make. Froggats sell them. I was jammy and picked two up second hand that never got used. You tie them in at bottom of...

Tried being so gentle and one of the long pump bolts still snapped in the housing. Nearly lost my sh1t then remembered I had a spare that’s in much better nick. Swapping over to the silicone hoses I have, proflow pump, waxstat, Nissen rad. Hope...

Cheers. Cooler etc as per list all on interest too mate

Initial photos, as you can see its in a stack of parts hence the photos. I can get more if required. The transfer box and transfer shifter is not included. Located on the isle of wight but as said i can stick on a pallet. The last pallet i sent...

I’m interested in the top half of it I.e. all the gearbox gear if you could send some pictures. Could you also give a location of where you are? Thanks

I’ve all dewalt and did consider it but I literally only use for my vehicle UJs!

Chuck it in the bin and start again, I spent an age recovering my 90 headlining and reinforcing the bit by the alpine windows, this has now sagged again!

Ordered a tidy looking old wanner off eBay. Thank you 👍🏻

That’s a toy 😂

As said silverline is rubbish, I would pop into machine mart and ask their advice How are you loading the grease gun? The grease gun ends from machine mart are actually very good, and are what I use at work on the milwaukee.

Anything silverline is pish, grease guns are the worse things even invented I bloody hate them & I use them every week. I loose the plot with them & launch them to fk, now get the lads to grease all my machines. Probably better with an old wanner...

Yeah, I've got a couple of Wanner guns, very sturdy and do the job.

The silver line one I got is rubbish. I don’t want another bit of tat. Can’t warrant a fancy leccy one. Happy with manual but want one that’s not a flimsy POS. Thanks

Will all installs require a CPS installing somewhere? I know MS worked from a trigger wheel…

You’ll know far more than I - I’ve still got lots of research to do. Last car I had with a dizzy was a good 10 years ago and that was jap and very reliable. I’m putting a v8 into a 300tdi disco. I do have a v8 loom but I wanted something easy...

Price is about right for a full rebuild down in Essex. The green flat O ring is high pressure. Black is standard or low pressure. I'm remembering the black one is at the top of pump as a seal so put in wrong place however don't know why both were...

That is all I put back. No idea what the black on was. Was much harder material than the green one. But doesn’t seem to be leaking anymore! Now just need to sort the alternator.

Got my injectors back. £281 for all four to be rebuilt with new nozzles and re shimmed to open at correct pressures. Done by a Bosch service centre. All fitted and started and idles lovely. Not driven it yet due to one tyre being half flat...

I’ve done a bit of research on this of recent. I was going to go megasquirt but am now leaning towards either Holley sniper 2 or fitech for my build. I don’t want to be messing about with maps etc. I just want something that self learns and had...

It is yes 👍🏻. Interested in a vnt when I do a freshen up but think she’d need the injectors and pump doing first as on 245k 😂

You say that Land Rover parts are cheaper but tbh only the knock off stuff is cheaper, genuine door seals over 100 quid for one door The little sticker that says Diesel on the td5 11 quid it’s literally the size of fingernail Genuine top...

What are standard tdi internals and the Bosch pump pairing good for John? Assume they’ll run 1.5 bar all day? We obviously have to keep Egt etc in check.

Always have to hunt out ‘g’ parts and even then it’s sometimes hard to find certain bits or they’re ridiculous money if they’re G. Thankfully, Land Rover parts are a lot cheaper than jap or premium German. But, do they break more so it evens out...

Serviced the following today. Def TD5 Merc SL 350 Kia Sportage 21 liters of oil combined!

Its the same everywhere :(... .I am restoring a 45 year old classic and the reproduction parts are ****e..... with the exception of rubber which perishes over time the seals, o rings and fittings from the original vehicle re-fitted are better...

That’s one corner complete and my gas empty. Need a top up!
