Ah thought it might be the heat that was doing that, intercooler would lower the charge temp abit and also the EGTs ?

DO the TDs have NO intercooler ? if so is it worth adding one, might help with the piston cracking ?

What was the disco in pic 5 trying to do ! looks like a good day was had, still not been to Bures yet. If anyones interested we are having a club comp at Canewdon, a punch hunt, also with winch challenge sections and some speed trials. Its all for FUN there will be bits for most cars but at...

Yes known John a few years now, dont see him very often though, he has mentioned the Brentwood club green days been meaning to get out on one or two with him, now he has a car working again he might start doing a bit.

Where was the fun day held, will have to get round to joining you, do you do many of those ? See John there has he still not sorted his Zuk or Disco out yet ?

No worries, got over your flu like symptoms then ?

Its certainly easier than trying to read a map, great on a byway when they fork and your not sure which way to go.Even better when combined with TOMTOM put a way point at the begining of lane and turn it into a TT POI then you get audio directions right to the start of said lane, you can even...

Best offroad mod you can do with a Freebie is a good recovery point on the front and nice strong rope attached, then hook it to back of your DEFENDER and tow it around the course, it will go everywhere you want it then ;)

Good luck, they can be tricky buggers !

The way I read this is the OP has lifted his 90 with a set of blocks,and that is the only mod, as he says the springs have been on there for 3 years it would have skipped before if they were too hard same for the shocks ? To put the rear blocks in he would have just undone the shock dropped the...

OOo thats had it, this is a very regular occurrence when offroading, the only way around it or to extend the life is use timken bearings, and original corteco seals fitted to the correct depth(4mm from memory) and a good waterproof marine grease suitable for Wbearings. Make sure the the area the...

quality pads then ! they only went in last weekend. Did you check the rear brake unions at the flexy ? remember they leaked/were loose

No worries can drop them off coming past your door 11ish. SLindon was good, more cars this year had a good laugh and plenty of offroading was done.

I have some if you want them, will be around tomorrow at about 11ish can drop them off if you want just let me know.

Seeing as your doing the swap over near wickford it would be rude to not offer any help, not sure how much or when but keep me informed and I will let you know.

Have you checked front radius arm bushes/bolts, rear trailing arm bushes/bolts, if its only doing it when the power is on thats where I would look first.

Well done you`ve spent some time on that motor, it should last for years now, not many people bother with them when they get to that stage. Seen a few really rusty ones but the chassis is always good. Its a shame they are soo bad, wont be much longer until theres no more on the road, they are...

keep it inside, they dont like getting wet and muddy as you will find out when you need to use it ! mine is upright just inside the back door hindge side does not get in the way provides a hand rail to get in back and is right there when needed. But I normally use the disco bottle jack as much...

Its my regular site been a member for about 4 years, can be a bit extreme in places some deep mud and water in areas, just follow some one who knows it dont enter any water without seeing some one go through first. Its most drivable at the moment as it is drier but very overgrown so can be a...

cheers all for Tuesday, did say good nite/was off but later realised I had changed CB channel.
