It's makes your ears bleed but I can get mine up to about 75mph. So diffs must be in that 99% then I'd guess

Ok good to hear! Wasn't sure it being an 1985 military 110 if it might have had some bits from the series 3 line.

And are dif ratios something to consider? Surely that wouldn't need changing aswell?

Thanks for this. So I take it the numbers on the chart are rpm? What do the red numbers indicate?

Interesting! So how would I find out the lt77 ratio? It's a military green box but other than that I know nothing of its ratio. I had read somewhere about changing tyres can change the ratio but I couldn't get my head round the idea. Is it bigger wheels lowers or highers? To be honest not even...

Hi all, Just wanted to ask for some personal experience of swapping a 1.6 transfer box to a disco 1.2 or 1.4. I've got a 110 1985 ex mod landy. It's got a disco 200tdi and although no information can be found on my transfer box I belive it to be 1.6 which means anything over 50mph on the...

Good evening all, Hope we are all ready for Christmas and looking forward to the presents and turkey! Anyways just thought I'd post this up to help people out. I have a 1985 one ten. All the rubber round the doors and everything in between had seen better days. I can't confirm that the seals...

So even when mild today think it was about 6° when I tried she still smoked white smoke and was grumpy until I blasted it out. So I'm rather not doing the spring key turn right or it's not wired. This saying they had decent starts with no plugs in cold weather. What do you think is causing...

Yeah I thought this myself bloody mild here today so she'll probably start really well! Still gonna try. Seeing if it will fire up better whilst trying the sping key thingy.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge I'm looking forward to seeing how cold it is tomorrow morning and seeing if this hidden glow switch works or not I shall update tomorrow's findings

This is such good info! I literally thought the barrel was a bit iffy and I just got used to it. But it is particularly spingy between the dash lights coming on and firing up I'll give this a try tomorrow to see if there's any difference! Also then I'll ask you as yours seems a similar setup...

This is interesting! So I had another ex military truck before this one not for long but that's another story. I noticed the truck I have now the ignition barrel felt different almost like there isn't really a clear cut second spot before firing up. So I've been on my own and had the dash lights...

Ahhh that makes sense warm it up disconect turn key with no wait. Yeah I managed to wire in an alarm for the old girl. Spurred off the fat white wire behind the key barrel and stuff. I've got a general knowledge and happy to try fixing stuff myself. It's just like spaghetti junction and with no...

Ok good idea about the jump lead would I simply use the red to the positive and connect it to any of the plugs or at the first one? Also I assume the trucks normal ground wiring should be okay without the need of thr jump lead? I've not noticed a switch for the plugs but then I have got one for...

Hi lynall thanks for the quick response. So I've heard about 200s not needing glow plugs but glad you seem to think they do better with them working so where might I find the relay? I unscrewed the fuse box metal cover and see a few relays. ones a new one for lights as it's clear and has wipac...

Hi all, Been a little while since I posted on here as landy has been sweet and life had been busy! Hooe you're all well! So winters setting in here in West Yorkshire and its the first winter for me and my truck. So I've noticed on the first start of the morning when chilly she takes a few turns...

Wow okay I'll stick to being robbed at the pump then quite attached to my lungs and skin. Take my hat off to you though!

Hahaah thats amazing. I know its another subject is making your own fuel difficult?

Thanks for that mate, sort of thing I was curious to find out. Did you notice any improvement on mpg at all?
