    Starting Problem when hot

    Have a look at the fuel over run shut off relay, it can be found under the bonnet near the air flow meter, all by it’s self, sometimes because of wear it sits the terminals get grubby, pull it out and give the socket a squirt of wd40, if that does no good it may well be the over run fuel...

    classic questions?

    I am currently running 3.5 vogue with LPG I’m getting 14 mpg single point properly tuned. You shouldn’t find any major problems running v8 on LPG provided all ignition parts are up to scratch and the engine is tuned to run correctly.

    Door switches!

    The switches that control the interior lights are located on the pillars between the door hinges, they resemble a dowel, they are spring loaded so that when the door is closed they break the circuit, because of there location they can and do rust, unscrew the switch and if ok give it a good clean

    range rover classic steering wheel

    Andy as far as I can remember yes it will fit, however to get the old one off without a puller can be very hard work, take the centre nut off then grasp the steering wheel either side and rock it from side to side while pulling, when it releases you could end up in the back seat.
