2.5 NA diesel from a 1987 90 Started easily after being sat for a few years Being taken out in near future as she is being rebuilt on a new chassis and 200 tdi Would be good for someone looking to restore a landy back to original engine Can come complete with radiator / hoses ,starter...

One of the easiest things to do is to swap the plastic bits that direct the air to your feet so they direct air up towards you It does help but in my case it's like warm air!

I live in hope of making the heater better !

It's pretty bloody cold in Scotland atm ! I must admit to having a bit of cardboard over the grille ,hadn't thought about putting something against the rad

300 tdi

Thanks for the replys a £250 matrix isn't realy an option atm ,il try flushing the existing one I saw online someone has fitted a passat matrix which is 25 percent bigger but had to chop and weld the heater box

The heater in my 90 is crap I have another heater box to rebuild Can you buy the seals for inside or can someone recommend a product to seal round the matrix and on the door Is there a more efficient matrix that fits in the heater box? Thanks

Sound advice, I live and work in a rural area and can't think of a single farmer or keeper close to me that still runs an old landrover A shrinking market ,especially for a hi cap

There's currently a 300 tdi 90 with a galv chassis on ebay for just over 7k Prices of certain things have dropped to pre covid levels

Thanks for the reply, il try some sealant on the D parts of the gasket

No just the gasket

After replacing the rocker cover gasket on my 300 a few months ago due to it leaking it seems to be leaking again I used an allmakes OEM gasket last time and cleaned the surfaces well Any suggestions?

Not sure what they were fitted to but I'm looking for mud tyres and the price is right

My defender currently has 235 85 16 tyres on sawtooth alloys Got the chance of a set of 215 85 16 tyres at a good price Will they be ok ?

Yes gravity fed gun

Looks bloody good ,I've tried spraying with the 50 ltr tank before and realy struggled to finish a panel without losing pressure

Going to paint my landy but only have a 50 litre compressor which won't be big enough Don't realy want to spend hundreds on a bigger compressor just for this Ive got a 47kg gas cylinder, has anyone linked the two together to increase capacity ?

Pm replied to

Did it sort your landy once you fitted it ?

Hi I still have the cylinder head
