    stuck :(

    oil out the timing cover drain hole? not good at all im afraid, sounds like a oil seal aint doing its job for a start. fuel system would be my first port of call for power loss, go back to basics and check every joint, re bleed etc then you can rule that out. intake system next check all joints...

    My Freelander makes people sick.

    youll find if you do a search that not only do freelanders make people sick, they also make babies cry, cause aids and can be generally held accountable for all the wrongs of the world. also they have proven links to al keada and anal rape. hope that helps :)

    200tdi conversion question?

    trouble is when you drop the engine in the weight and gearbox twist it to the drivers side, you need to move engine slightly over to passenger side as you lower it in, fan should clear by good 10mm . mine does.

    Fitting a small crane to the front of a Defender

    used to have a series 2 88" that had just what you need on it. hand 2 brackets bolted through with the bumper mount bolts and an a-frame attached to that with a pully at the top, all you did was chuck your winch line over the pully and you got a crane. before me it was used to shunt mineing...
