    2.5 petrol - 200tdi

    Good questions. I'm just about to start doing the same and was wondering about the bellhousing too. Glencoyne 4x4 will modify it for about £50. I'm doing my own one as I'm a machinist.

    1986 110 wheel sizes

    Proper size for a 110 is 7.50x16 or 235/85/16 if you want the metric equivalent. HTH, Paddy

    110 CSW Rear Bench Seats

    Hi all, My 110 CSW has no bench seats in the back currently and I'm looking to fit some. Are CSW backs the same size as 90 rear tubs? As I remember 110's have 2 pairs of bench seats in them so I 'm guessing that they're the same size as 90's? Cheers, Paddy

    1987 110 Station Wagon (mini) Resto

    I've also bought a new rear loom from autosparks and new wipac lights all round as its easier than trying to clean bad old earths. Plus the fuel tank was leaking and I won one on the bay with the bash plate for £5 :D :D :D

    Here is my 110 resto its been on going since about April but I've never got round to writing it up lol. Here's the Landy as "found" in the field/over flow parking bit of a wee local garage... I was thinking at worst case it'd need a new chassis but it...

    Approaching The Point Of No Return!!!

    Well my back crossmember and all other MoT welding is done so now it's time to start ripping out for the Disco 200Tdi conversion!! I've nearly bought all the bits I just need a TD exhaust, engine mounts and a crank seal and I should be sorted. I'm also getting the slam panel and stiffeners...

    Does this sound like a bad earth?

    My disco used to have a buggered spade on the starter that used to fall of at random times and trying to squeeze my big paws past a red hot turbo was never fun!!! I must remember to replace that terminal during the swap lol

    You're good lol Just had a look at my wiring diagram and you are correct. I'll take a better look once I get up tomorrow afternoon as I'm on night shift ATM. Cheers

    Does this sound like a bad earth?

    As far as I can see at present it's all correct and everything else works as it should. I couldn't even see the handbrake wore lol Once I pull the motor out (doing a 200Tdi conv) I'll get a better look then. Cheers, Paddy

    Ignition on and handbrake on, no warning light. Turn the key to starter motor position, no starter motor but the handbrake light comes on!! I have been buggering about with the wiring as I've been fitting a new chassis loom recently. Cheers, Paddy
