Brakes are fine since it rolls easily when turned on in neutral. When reving it, it takes longer than expected to respond but other than that it does seem fine. When revving it hard, it is very very blue/blacky smokey - Over fueling or a deeper set problem? If I take the air intake pipe off, it...

Right, So after putting my landy back together I come to drive it and give it a good run and it won't drive out of my drive way. The best way I can describe it is it feels like i am trying to pull away in 3rd or 4th in a normal car. It seems to have a little more power if I am in low range but...

But I still need some rear tyres!

Aha loads! I've probably forgotten to tighten countless nuts so genuinely will not be surprised if I arrive at the garage tub-less, roof-less or wheel-less :D

Cheers guys, I'll chuck a new filter on the order list then! Scared to go for a good run, knowing my luck, it'll start to fall to pieces!

as in fill the filter right up with forte or just a little? as is that right before the test? With veg oil, do I have to use completely veg oil or do i have to mix it and treat it? thank you

Oh and it's a 1987 2.5TD 90!

So I am nearing the end of my rebuild and will hopefully be having the mot done soon. I am confident she will pass on everything except for the emissions which i am a little apprehensive about. Reason being, I was foolish enough to keep the old 19j engine and it hasn't been run properly for a...

Hi, Am looking for 2 tyres so that i can have all 4 wheels matching. Currently i've got BF Goodrich 225/75 r16 All terrain on the front so preferably two to match these. I'll be interested if someone has a set of 4 similar on rims or not. Live in Bridport, Dorset so needs to be relatively...

It's the lower ones by the way cheers

Hi, I am after 2 safari door hinges as I am going to make a side opening tailgate since i cocked up welding my rear crossmemeber on and it will look silly if i modify the existing mechanism to allow for my wonky xmember. So if anyone has any lying about I'll buy :). Thanks Jasper

Hi, I have a turbo removed from a 2.5TD 19J and am having a clear out and have no use for it anymore. It's on ebay as well. It was working when i removed it and it was only replaced cause I had one that was coloured to match my body work. Not sure how much it's worth but its on ebay...

If i bypass the hazard switch, then i can light up all indicators continuously and can hear a relay working, when i track the relay down its not part of the flasher unit which i am assuming it the larger red relay looking thing... however i cannot get the lights to flash.. And now i have more...

Hmm its everything that would come on when the key is turned to the position just before the engine would begin to turn over. And yep, the lights come on when key is turned as well. No hazards when the engine is running. I think i am just going to double check connections at the ignition...

Cheers Dogsbody, I did all that at the very beginning and things seemed to match up almost perfectly, its probably something minor that i have overlooked somewhere. I was hoping i could cheat somehow and not have to reassess everything but it looks i'll have to do that unless bypassing the...

Hi, So i am trying to figure out why i have no indicators and I've just realized that if i turn on the hazard light switch, the ignition turns on regardless if the key is in or not. I've literally spent hours trying to sort the indicator problem out and i can't get anywhere. Now i am...

But all of the lights work if directly connect them up bypassing both the hazard switch and the stalk so i don't think its an earth on any of the lights? I thought it was the hazard switch too however if I connect the points (in the plug for the hazard switch) directly then it still doesn't...

Right, So i've no indicators or hazard lights. If i remove and bypass the hazard switch i can do the following: Light up the indicators - so wiring is okay. Hear a relay tick once - flasher is okay? I can't get light flash though... I am certain it isn't the stalk as i've put a new one in. If...

Drum is getting hot. I'll give it a go trying and adjusting the cable. Thanks
