    discovery gearbox transfer problems

    The propshaft frrom the transfer box to the front axle starts to rotate but knocks and fails to drive, the propshaft to the rear axle does nothing, tries to change gear ratio but no different, I beleive either the transfer box is faulty internally or the selector to the transfer box is faulty.

    Cylinder head and water in engine

    When you fit the new MLS head gasket, you only fit the shim/extra layer if you have the head skimmed, the idea is that you keep the compression the same as when it was first manufactured.
