Hi and thank you for your reply. I do have the fuse box in the cab where you describe, contains two rows of blade fuses and I think its six relays in a line underneath. Would this be the only fuse box fitted to the vehicle? Many thanks.

Hi all, after buying my 1997 90 300tdi bare chassis rebuild, I am now at the stage of wiring in the engine etc. My question is do all defender 300tdi have the under bonnet fuse box? There wasn't one with the vehicle when i bought it so I'm not sure. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks.

Thank you Mystery, I've just landed in tenerife so I cant have a play at the moment! I will check it out next week though. Thanks again

Good evening, many thanks for your reply and wiring diagram, I think it will come in very useful. i have actually been attempting to sort it out today,pretty unsuccessfully. It seems i have more wires on the discovery engine loom side. I have attached some pictures so you can see what i mean. I...

Hi all, I have a sort of related question regarding 300tdi engine wiring. I am tring to fit a discovery 300tdi engine into my defender, the engine came complete with its loom but obviously the connector plugs are different. My question is,has anyone managed to fit a 300tdi disco engine into a...

So I thought I would try on the off chance, contacting the breakers where I bought the engine and see iff they still had the vehicle and hopefully the engine loom plug. So,the 300tdi engine came from a discovery (not sure if this makes a difference) and is being fitted in a defender.They...

That is fantastic, thanks very much

Good afternoon all, I am trying to find a diagram/photo of the engine loom plug and the bulkhead loom plug together. My replacement engine that i purchased has no connector plug and neither does the bulkhead loom. Unfortunately it is not as straightforward as just matching the wire colours as...

Great,thanks very much. I'm sure I will get to grips with it eventually.

Thanks marjon,these forums are pretty alien to me and not really too sure what to ask and where to post it but everyone so far has been helpful, a great place for advice.

Hi all again, apologies for the sporadic questions but I think of jobs that need doing throughout the day. Would anyone have any tips or diagrams as to where the front to rear and front brake pipes are routed on a 90 please? Have searched online but not found anything accurate.

So I visited my local Land rover specialist (JSF)over the weekend who were extremely helpful and supplied me with the correct exhaust system for my 90. Nothing flashy at the moment but I just want to get the project up and running.

They do look extremely good quality and also look the part,as the budget dose not quite stretch that far at the moment,maybe something to look at in the future?;)

Extremely helpful Al2O3,thank you for your help. I will certainly have a look into the options available.:)

Cheers guys, I would prefer to go full stainless if I am honest but at the moment I have quite a few other items on my shopping list;)

Yes,that's the same style,just not stainless. I am just wondering if there is another style I should be looking at also? eg different style silencer or length of centre section. Thanks.

Good morning all, when I purchased my 1997 300tdi 90 bare chassis for restoration a rear silencer came with it. Am I right in saying there are only certain exhaust styles that will fit? The silencer I have has both pipes coming from one end if this helps? Many thanks.

Good morning everyone, I hope everybody is staying safe with the current weather conditions?

How do members get on with dealing with Autosparks? I emailed them on Tues,emailed them again yesterday and still no reply from their tech dept.

I know what you mean Lynall, I certainly agree with the 150 quid for a part loom being steep. I have contacted autosparks this morning and just waiting for a reply if they can supply just the plugs. If not I think it will be superseal all the way!:)
