Hi there. I have been busy putting a lovely 300tdi engine into my 1984 110 due to a knackered 2.5td lump. It is in the bay with all wires and pipes (I think) connected correctly. It turns over (but lumpy) and idles well for about 15 seconds, then just revs faster, then really struggles and...

I have now had my 'D' reg 110 for nearly 4 years, and it has been brilliant. Yes, last january the head gasket blew when I was driving up to North Yorkshire for a weeks hiking, but this might have been the first time this has happened. And yes, when I put the engine back together after having...

Will do. Cheers my friend!

I am thinking of making my own roof rack for my 110CSW. Has anyone done this and if so, did it work? Or is it best just to go out and purchase one so it makes my LR identical to all the other ones out there...? lol Some thoughts or tips would be gratefully received!!

If it was a choice between a new DC100 or my old, knackered, cold, leaky, slow, temperamental, smelly old 110CSW, I would choose the latter every day of the week. As Daz has said, the likelyhood of the DC100 being home-repairable is very unlikely, which goes against the original ethos of the...

Not too sure... lol

If it happens again it probably is salts coming out of the metals. Try a weak vinegar solution to sluce it down with. Vinegar destroys salts even deep in the metal, so doing this should alleviate the problem.

And you know of this picture, how??? And how many people are now going to Google 'man ****ing exhaust pipe'...?

It could be all matter of problems, from bad tyre choice (off road tyres used on road), tracking is out, bearings are out, wheel/s need balancing, warped brake discs (if only happening when braking), axle mounts might need attention if only happening when downhill and braking, half-shaft...

I was going to put "how much to do love your landy...???" But thought it would be in bad taste. But let's slip it in, eh...

If you drill / punch / shoot a hole in the floor pan the water will have an easy egress so no standing water in the morning. And notice my totally unnecessary use of 'egress' there when exit would have done... lol

Read? I just look at the pictures...

My one didn't... It's an easy fix but the studs on the flywheel housing do not marry up with the L77 gearbox housing...

You cut me deep my friend! I'm going to my trailer...

I believe everything does just unbolt. Might be sticky or stuck, but it should just undo...

That would be the better option, especially if you intend to abuse the crap out of your little beast... I will do this myself on my next day off me thinks...

A friend of mine had a 200tdi engine, and used biodiesel. It knackered his engine so he had it rebuild (piston rings gone I think...?) He then tried it again as he was told that different rings were installed to cope with the higher acidity of biodiesel (once again, ???) but it still...

Mine is an '86 110 CSW and I believe mine was fitted with PAS as standard. I am not the worlds knowledge on this (like a certain poster above who wishes to abuse the OP and show himself up with incorrect info, judging by other posters... lol). I am sure someone will correct me in a...

DERV is an acronym for Diesel Engined Road Vehicle...

Also, the flywheel/bell housing studs will not fit all the way round. The four studs at the bottom of the flywheel housing do not meet up with the holes in the L77 gearbox. So if you are keeping the old gearbox you will either have to drill out some holes in the gearbox lip, or new stub holes...
