Ive had various V8 RRcs and I doubt any made it to double digit MPG. My 90 was V8 now its a 300tdi, the 110 Csw im in the middle of a chassis change was a V8...itll be a TD5. No point in having them if they guzzle so much fuel you cant use them. :)

Must be solid gold at £995 !!!

I have a maer chassis for my 110.....so far so good.

In your first pic top right...the small hole next to the head bolt hole will be where pumped oil gets to the cylinder head. Oil in coolant would have to be from here as its under pressure greater than the coolant. All the other strange shaped holes are either coolant {pressurized when hot) or...

Oil to coolant is very rarely head gasket on any engine. If it is it can only be from the supply gallery up to the head. The oil has to be pressurized more than the coolant so it has to be pumped oil.

oil cooler ?

There should be power to the solenoid connection <-- the cable from the battery. The motor itself only get power when the solenoid clicks in.

There's a lot of td5s running around with a missing top nut :) The choice is yours.

Britpart lasted 250 miles... Ive fitted an electric pump now. DOnt know how it will last.

Bought a SUAOKI U8 1000A after seeing recommendations somewhere....might have been here....anyway absolutely useless Chinese ****e. It never manage to start a single thing. Wouldn't hold a charge for any length of time. Then one day while charging..again..all the lights etc dead...

Cant help you with instructions.... But I noticed this bit the "elusive Fairey overdrive" how elusive? I have one on an lt95....if its elusive it must be worth a fortune :) Can I ask what yours cost?

many moons ago I fitted a Montego turbo D....which is the same thing....in to a 90 using sherpa van bits. You could change your series gearbox to LT77 with LT230 and it will all bolt up.....possibly, maybe, ish :)

Also.... 2 stroke oil is not cheap. Would it not be better to buy the better diesel....the supreme stuff...you know the stuff....the other pump no body uses. I cant be bother to do the sums but an extra £10 of 2 stroke per tank doesn't seem like a good plan to me

Used to be a thing to add ATF to diesel as its a good cleaner. My last 300tdi got some of everything in it....new and used cooking oil, atf, new engine oil, petrol/diesel mix from customers cars. all in various quantities depending on what was around.....it did get pump diesel as well :) Id...

Cant remember what I used....something that fitted the hole and some drill bits on my rangerover but that's because I wanted the pump timing adjusted with a dial gauge so I could advance it and know where it was. You can change the belt no bother without locking the crank....pin the cam and the...

Out of all the diffs Ive done with crush washers Ive never heard of taking it back apart to check anything or fit a seal......the idea being you crush the washer until you get he correct torque on he gauge....thats it done. If you go to far you need a new washer. if its not enough you crush it...

Ive a set of rubber britpart bushes here that look just like that....the top bush has a metal sleeve....making it almost impossible to fit :)

You could use the old style nuts.....but why? Landrover made the wheel bearings idiot proof but you want to go back.........

This thread is not about HDC...... Heres davethebb in his disco1 auto with no HDC and no trick diffs sitting at the top of a tricky very steep gravel track/muddy slope....he selects low and 2nd as suggested, drives over the edge....davethebb has been given top advice by internet experts not to...

I know how HDC works. I also know no driver cant brake an individual wheel. The original Q was not about HDC HDC? With HDC it makes no difference if you have engine braking or not its the brakes that keep you from running off. Lets get back to you explaining how engine braking can brake an...
