    Freelander 1 Should Freelander wheels touch the edge of drums?

    I bought some FL1 wheels a while back, the guy wasn't sure which model he had them on but pretty sure he had them on FL1, and had some spacers to use on his FL2 later. I bought the wheels but didn't get the spacers, wondering if I need them. When we fitted them, the inside of the spokes make...

    Disco 2 Replacement Gearbox - Any ideas?

    Ha, then I am weird too. I like double declutching too but my wife and son don't :D. Besides, I need it to drive nice so the vehicle is saleable. I can't spend what I am spending without knowing I could recoup money in the coming govt-induced economic collapse if I need to sell (and I may) ...

    Thanks Andy. The trouble is finding a 100ohm resistor! We tried all sorts of bits of wire, light bulbs etc! I really need an exact 100Ohm resistor but don't have one. If you have any suggestions please shout! I am pretty sure the sensor is knackered though. Did you say you have one? How much...

    This is a 54 plate TD4. the VRM is BV54 GYB if that helps? The fuel guage constantly shows empty. It's not the fuel guage/clocks at fault, definitely the unit under rear seats, not sure if that's called a sender or a guage. I know it's there because we were playing with the wires trying to find...
