    Disco 2 Discovery 2 Td5 heater air block.

    Getting there guys but still not perfect. I would say its warm rather than hot. Have tried the 2000 rev bleeding trick with the bleed valve cracked open several times. Have also replaced the pressure cap. The pump is working fine because with the bleed valve removed water will bounce off...

    Chronicles of My Discovery 2

    Had key problems with my mgf and obtained a apare key with a little device that you plugged in and it programmed the key. All good. Then that prompted myself to obtain the eka code for my disco 2. Two working keys but no eka. Rang up the local dealers and for exchange of my reg number i was...

    Disco 2 Discovery 2 Td5 heater air block.

    Thanks guys. Very nearly there. Front raised on ramps. Stick from the seat to pedal to hold on 2000 revs, bleed screw cracked a bit and as a trickle of water came out from the hose , topped up the expansion tank. Did this for approx 10 mins until warm and the heater was deffinetly improved. Not...

    When you say hope its valve not stuck are you referring to by pass valve in the thermostat or cap.? Sorry but may have got myself confused.

    Series 2a Temp Guage

    Right have managed to get some readings. The gauge had a reading of 61.1 (with the meter set to 200) Managed to take a check reading off a series 3 gauge , which to to be honest think mine is as well and that was 60. So basically the same. Checked the sender cold. Had no reading...

    Series 2a Temp Guage

    Series 2a Temp Guage

    In a seperate thread i have started the Cronicles of my 2a but i have a problem with my temp guage. It rises to just below the red. Sometimes just into but mostly just below. Does not seem excessively hot. It has a new sender and replacement instruments over the years. The regulator is new...

    Chronicles of My Discovery 2

    Dont mind you asking. I was chatting to Tom of Adventure Tours in the middle of the plain after i had rearranged my original front bumber , and how my tow bar acted as a plough, and discussing improvments that could be made, when he mentioned he had a 2nd hand one one knocking round his...

    Chronicles of My Discovery 2

    Rear Bumber now on as well as Tow bar and tow eye . The drop plate and ball hitch can be swapped in as required. New shocks and drop links fitted. To be honest bit disappointed with the drop links as the nuts were obviously mismatched and had to work 3 of them up and down in the vice to...
