    Red Floods. Like an aircraft. See what's what! In the dark.

    I once crossed the Sahara Desert in August, 2012, and used Red-Floods to see the inside of my cab. It was the hottest month in that year and my eyes were strained from the previous day's heat. The red floods helped me to cross a terrain that could have ended my journey, with wadi's and dried...

    Red Floods. Like an aircraft. See what's what! In the dark.

    It isn't harsh, at all. The photo is not the best to show how good it actually is. I drove, no, that's not accurate. My wife & I drove for quite a distance in the dark recently and if she was in any way unhappy with the Red light, she would have said. In fact, she was quite complimentary. And...

    Egr Blanking Mod

    There are many on this site who are not only helpful with their years of knowledge & experience, but also with the amount of helpful advice on how to go about remedying any or most kinds of problems. I have to add, that my initial trust in some (suspect) members and their comments stretched my...

    Red Floods. Like an aircraft. See what's what! In the dark.

    Having spent a life associated with flying, I came to recognize how important it is to see all the controls at your fingertips, feet, elbows, passengers, etc, at an instant. The answer is simple, Red-Floods. Yes, Red lights that illuminate the inside of your car - or whatever, while not...

    Jeez... that's expensive, except to say that unless you know what's needed and you can DIY. What you should have done was to carry out some research. LandyZone has all the answers to most problems, I have found, and I like to think I have contributed to some answers. That price may seem like...

    Injectors, DIY refurbishing?

    My wife & I went for a really good run today, where I tested the Freelander to the extreme. It went like the proverbial up hills and was smooth to the extreme. Pedal-to-the-metal, etc. And even though I'm biased, because I did the work... it's F'n brilliant. No blue smoke at start-up. No...

    Injectors, DIY refurbishing?

    Okay everyone, here goes with a detailed account of my Injector x4 Refurbishment... The first step was to thoroughly clean the outside of the injector. I used paraffin and a brass wire-brush to remove obstinate lumps & corrosion. IMPORTANT>>> As you remove items take care to observe how they...

    Injectors, DIY refurbishing?

    You are correct, of course. I've also noticed the pictures I placed onto the end of the write-up are not in sequence (sigh), which can disorientate any reader who is unaquainted with an Injector's internal workings. I'll do a complete rewrite, inserting pictures as appropriate, to inform and...

    Injectors, DIY refurbishing?

    Hi all... Having just completed my most recent project, I’m posting the complete process of how I went about refurbishing a full set of Injectors for my Freelander, 2006, 3-Door, Diesel Td4. The first picture in the series shows the tools I used, the most important being the 10mm hexagonal...

    Freelander 1 Relacement injectors, a test?

    Thanks, guys. I've taken on-board all that you have pointed out. My next project is to refurbish the replacement injectors, using a Heath-Robinson pressure system to check them out. I'll keep you posted. Have a merry Chrismas, to all.

    What I cannot abide is the few who ridicule what is sensible, and those who can but remain silent. Typical bloody humans! Apes forever.

    Freelander 1 Relacement injectors, a test?

    So, even after suffering the uneducated comments from those who simply jump to conclusions, as befits their limited education (that’ll create a Neanderthal storm, I’m sure - lol), as laid down by their own personal thoughts & mental processes, some of which can be seen as suspect… & remedial…...

    A Dim Clock Made Bright With LED's.

    Because, Nodge, the illumination of the clock was rubbish, to the point where neither my wife or I could read it during the day - especially when the sun was shining, which is quite common here in Spain. And now we can see it clearly. And if any or all of the LED's or resistors fail it's an easy...
