    Top End Power Gone?

    Right, I have started to notice a dramatic drop in top end power. 4th gear hills are now 3rd gear hills, it takes forever to get to 40mph etc... Can I have some ideas of possible problems? I can confirm the rings are still nice and tight so that is one tick off the list. Cheers Yannis

    Freeeezing....

    Right, I better get some more. Will the freezout have done any damage?
  12. Yannis

    Freeeezing....

    Nope, there has always been water and Anti Freez maybe only a small ammount though. I have been out in it since I put the antifreez in so it has had a good chance to mix in.

    Freeeezing....

    Went out to the land rover this morning and thought to me self better check the cooling system before I attempt to start it... I poked my finger down into the rad and yep its solid, only put anti freez in it 2 days ago, a good dose to. The water pump is also solid...... Once it has all...

    Suspension Sag?

    Hi Guys, I dont belive it to be the springs as the problem was appartent with the leaves that I have just taken off. It could be the front spring mount, where the bolt goes through. The hole was quite big, maybe the spring is riding flatter than it should as the ankor points are futher...

    Engine Back In

    I couldnt get my gearbox and engine to go together. Spline wouldnt line up and I was getting annoyed. If you connect up the starter motor with the engine in place and just ticlkle the engine over the splines line up and every thing goes together with a bang. This worked for me and made the...
