    Go on then, tell me about Rev counters

    hi all Fitted new alternator a couple of weeks ago to replace a dodgy new one fitted at Christmas then today while driving the Rev counter started jumping up and down like a stroppy teenager Do we think this is coincidence or related, where’s best to start checking and how please Thanks in...

    Air con running dry?

    Hmm cheers One reason is to recover it but it’s not too bad yet that’s prob why I’ve never taken it out, sunroofs, roof bars (painting and sealing) being other reasons I might try for some kind of plug hidden in a roof bar for a removable light bar and rooftop tent to have power to it aswell...

    So what’s the final solution???

    Yeah seen them, cheers tho Towsey

    Air con running dry?

    I do keep saying I want to take the roof lining out and do some jobs, but it ain’t happened yet ha
  8. towsey956

    So what’s the final solution???

    Cheers I get wide angle joints and phasing, I’ve sorted the phasing for how it’s set up now although I still need to get a wide angle front prop, I’m just keen to find out why people say the proper way is to re drill swivels then maybe or maybe not re-weld every part of the axle so they can...

    So what’s the final solution???

    Yep absolutely but when ya keep getting stuck doin certain jobs then ya lift it and fit different tyres then stop getting stuck you obviously gain something somewhere?! Not sure I’d call 8x16’s Tonka toy wheels tho!

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Well I’ve been told to squeeze some creeping cure stuff into my crack!

    Air con running dry?

    Haha yeah that could well be true, it lets it out of other places to make up for it tho

    Brake issue at mot...

    Thanks Yeah I’ve wondered about the adjustable pushrod thing, old fords and some others had it but to be honest I didn’t think of looking from inside cos ya used to take master off to do ones I’ve done before but il have a look see I just can’t decide which to buy first haha, But sumats gonna...

    Air con running dry?

    Cheers for that folks Amazing things land rovers aren’t they, you start off with non dripping air conditioning and next thing ya know your squeezing stuff into your crack ha, wot a weird world we live in! Cheers tho Towsey

    Air con running dry?

    Cheers for that, sounds like il have to have a look a bit higher up aswell then :rolleyes:

    Brake issue at mot...

    Yeah front brakes fine. Can the PRV be stripped and freed off? On very gentle braking the rear callipers do favour the inside pads first then once the bit of slack is taken up against the discs the outer ones kick in more but this is when just touching the pedal and prob due to the pipe...

    Brake issue at mot...

    Well I eventually got round to spending a bit more time on this All vacuum side is ok, pump, pipe, one way valve and servo ok giving about 25hg of vacuum and holding it after turned off till I got bored of waiting Been told that sometimes the pressure reducing valve can have a dicky fit when...
  17. towsey956

    So what’s the final solution???

    Thanks for replies Yeah it’s my daily driver which we ride round in with kids so would like it to be rite. Just wondering why if reworking the axle still leaves you needing a wide angle prop anyway then why not just fit castor arms or bushes and have the flanges in a healthier place and get...
  18. towsey956

    PAS pump query

    Well... Fitted a new pump (not ZF though) and it was horrific! It whined all the time and drove like it was running half pressure and wasn’t bled up properly even after been bled 4 times and test drives so sent it back for a replacement, and thats not a lot better to be honest, this one whines...
  19. towsey956

    So what’s the final solution???

    Sorry for the late reply and thank you for the offer So by reworking the axle everything will be moved except the diff? I was always told that having prop flanges as close to parallel as possible is better for phasing and the prop in general, even if the angle is made steeper which is...

    Air con running dry?

    Thank you for that Yeah it works well to be honest so might need to do a bit of rummaging around and see wot I can find under there Just while we’re talking about wet floors, apart from the aircon draining into the carpet, what other points of ingress do you guys know of. It has sunroofs...
