I don't know how much experience you have with fault finding, so if your like me (everythings a first time so learning as I go) then this may help: Spent 6 hours fault finding to find out there was a bit of twig in my pick up pipe in the tank. It would get sucked up and run rough as buggery...

Very helpful Thank you for taking the time

I took top cover off and reset clearances as 1/2 turn back from bottoming out worked wonders for the misfire

Soon changing the clutch for the second time on 200tdi 110 CSW. Many lessons learned from the first time. This time round both boxes will be refurbished at the same time as the clutch change as they will be coming out the front with the engine. Bought the rebuild kit for the transfer box...

Excellent will get it ordered up thank you

RTC5869G ?

200tdi Defender 110 I replaced the front passenger side some months ago and now need to replace the drivers side. Can anyone remember which way the thread turns on the drivers side? A part number would be just great. Thank you

No compensation, and received back as a bunch of bits in a bag.

Any of the military paint colours / shades take your fancy? I intend on painting by hand so I can touch up yearly / when damage occurs. I know nothing about paint but a hunch tells me military paint may be harder wearing, also. Another thing I'd be worried about is repairs being done that make...

Handbrake sticking once warmed?

Also works works well with forklift with one fork through the door Or jack. or if you don't own a jack, a fence post and rope...

By separating the box from the engine. Or is he taking the boxes with the engine? One thing I did forget - propshafts

Some years ago I sent a bus power steering pump to a reconditioner. I explicitly and repeatedly stated not to send it through the post to anyone else as I couldn't afford to loose it as ZF has discontinued them. Three weeks later I called to learn it had been sent away and nothing could be done...

Buy UV Leak Detection dye. It will show up very clearly any leak areas.

Your fans already off but if the vehicle were operational the fastest way I have found is fan off, rubber mounts off, chassis member out, tilt engine back whilst supporting underneath, engine crane in through seatbox area.

Had this with a broken spring on the clutch

I don't believe this is your problem but I recently learned that squeeks can be caused by failing bearings under laod. Rear UJ had one of the 4 cups completely empty. The bearings has turned to dust. Started as a squeak under load and became a violent shudder through the vehicle.

Forgot to say it's an LT77 200tdi LT230

Hi, Just thought I'd share a time / effort saving idea here I stumbled across for removing slave cylinder bolts, and works just as well when putting them back in. I have read on here previously someone got their head stuck, so this should help those inclined toward such behaviour, also. 2...
