    Starting a tdi200

    Pretty simple question: I've got a 90 with the later tdi200 discovery engine fitted. In the handbook for the 90 it states you shouldn't touch the throttle when either cold or hot starting the td engine. Would that be also the same advice for the tdi200 engine aswell? Told you it was...

    Speaker positions ??

    I built 2 MDF boxes and sprayed them the colour of my 90, they fit inside the back infront of the rear light connectors on the wheel arches facing towards the front. Speakers are 165 dia. I also angled the speakers slightly inwards It's not where you mount the speakers that are important...

    clunking from clutch

    The front prop, this is the problem, it is not the ujs as i have grasped the ujs and prop and try to spin them in different direction; there seems to be no movement. However holding the ujs and prop together there is about 25mm of play. In what I have no idea :o

    TDi 200 Tops speed

    FYI Poor economy and top speed was sorted by a replacement airfilter and a stretched accelerator cable adjusted. MPG now about 28-30 Top speed now around 80-85 MPH Airfilter a tenner, and 5 minutes adjusting the throttle cable......... Result

    TDi 200 Tops speed

    "There is NO WAY to make a diesel "run rich" other than to open the max fuel screw TOO FAR, and cause EXCESS fuelling, but all that does is to make smoke, reduce power and waste fuel. " Thanks for your help You may have hit the problem on the head ............. That's just the symptons I...

    TDi 200 Tops speed

    No idea, but he said it was set up a little different from normal to run 'rich' (smoke?) for better off road slow running. He stated it could be adjusted back. I will use it mainly on the raod. He is an agricultural engineer and seemed glued up. Me I have not the faintest, other than where...

    TDi 200 Tops speed

    The guy I bought it from stated it was running rich, this had been set intentionally (so i was told, i have no idea) because it's better for off roading. Would that be a cause of the limited speed and excessive MPG? Also if this is the case, what can I do to adjust the mixture? Or has he...

    TDi 200 Tops speed

    Hi all, I've been searching through the different threads on here for a while, but though many people sem to state what speed their Landys can achieve, no one seems to state what the top speed of a 200tdi should be. Mines an E reg 90 with the later 200 engine fitted, I'm new to Landrovers...
