Glue loads of drawing pin to the cylinder head and let it bleed to death, get yourself a catapult for the front step thing. Riggaz

Not much customer service there then. Chain? I was just checking to see how competent he was with engines, i'm sure some novices have tried it and made mistakes but he sounds like he's done it right. I cant understand them, there should be nothing that could make gears fail even if there was an...

Are they tricky to fit, no chance he could have fitted them wrong or anything? Riggaz

Thinking about fitting some, anyone had any experience with them. There are web sites warning about failures but they are d.i.y fit so many of these could be due to incorrect fitment. Are there any authorised Zues fitters or Land Rover techs that have had experience/problems with them. Thanks...

It will have one as standard pal, it will have something like it already so you shouldn't need to do anything to it. Riggaz

Say no more and hope for the best chap Riggaz

Dont do it mate, when someone hears it they'll look round expecting to see a nissan skyline and they'll see you in a freelander, you'll get the **** ripped out of you. Riggaz

Yours probably already has a bypass valve valve doesn't it?. Bypass valves release the pressure on the intake side and recircs it back to the inlet side of the turbo and keeps the turbo freewheeling to avoid decellerating the turbo as the pressure builds up and is forced back toward the turbo...

My blow off valve is a bit loud as well chap i stopped eating baked beans and it cured it. Riggaz

Well done sir Riggaz

It's just a hunch but i think they've sent you the wrong one Riggaz

I've heard the 2.0 perkins turbo diesel is a good fit, never seen one but no doubt someone has done it. The AA loved those old engines you can get some big mileage out of them without em going wrong, fortrak engines are a bit juicey usually but do last. Riggaz

Are your brake lights working alright? were they the right pads for your car? might be worth checking with LR to see if yours is supposed to have wear indicators. Riggaz

180! problem solved, you're right about the scrapyard thing pal dont do it myself, you just get used to people on forums trying to do the cheapest repair possible, sorry to make that assumption about you. Happy boosting Riggaz

At least the pipe wont corrode as fast now mate, every cloud and all that. Riggaz

Bad news about the Saab Landy, new turbo? Turbocharger sales Garrett Turbochargers Holset Turbo Turbos these chaps are really good if you cant find one in a scrap yard. Riggaz

Try these guys About Legs give em a ring and they'll sell you what you need for a good price, they've modified them. Riggaz

Just remember the strainer is just one of a list of things it could be so it might not cure it and it might not be necessary to fit a new one if you flush it but if you have one already i suppose it's one thing off the list, whilst you've got the sump off you could check the big end bearings for...

A Forte engine flush would disolve any varnish on the pick up strainer pal so no need for a strip down. It can cause low oil pressure because the restriction is before the oil pump and can exellerate wear around the engine and you only need a small amount of laquer / varnish to reduce oil flow...

Unless your engine has been seriously neglected it wont do it any harm at all. That tends to be the theory of old skool mechanics that think there is big deposits of soot and carbon in the engine keeping it tight and if you flush it these will be cleaned away. The truth is bud since about 1995...
