Brilliant that exactly what I needed to know, thank you! Another question, anyone got a link where I can buy them? Nick

Yet more problems with the disco, after replacing the head, rocker shaft, gasket, push rods ect got it all back together, ran fine for the first time in 3 months, so I taxed it this morning, moved it about 4 meters and bang, something wrong again! Iv stripped it down again and found if I...

I just think for the price they arnt bad, I know it would be cheaper to buy a sheet and shape it myself but it's time consuming and I'm impatient, have had a look at Yrm which does look good, but the easy on stuff looks like a much more 'stick it in and weld it' without too much alteration. Also...

I need to replace/sort out my front wing/inner arch and left hand sill, iv come across a shop on eBay selling pre moulded metal replacement that pretty much weld straight in place. Just wondering if anyone else has had any experience with these and how accurate they are? Cheers

Oh ok no worries didn't realise, well with the amount of work iv got to do on the disco I shouldn't think 50 posts will take to long to accumilate, thanks for the responses.

Hi there. I'd like to sell a tubular front bumper on the for sale part of the forum but I don't have 'privileges'? Can this be changed? Regards, Nick

Hi, have you got the front (longer) steering arm and is it straight? if so how much?

Yer all the other indicators are working. I was thinking I'm just gonna hide the wires up in there. Cheers :)

Hi, I have just replaced my rear bumper with a tubular steel one, this making the rear bumper lights redundant... Thus making the indicators flash at fast rate as if there is a bulb gone. Is there a way of simply bridging the wires to stop this? Nick

Just had a reply from the shop on eBay telling me that "it will work". Can anybody on here confirm that? I'm pretty sure the moment that goes in my engine the warranty will be void!

Well I'd rather not just because I want to get it skimmed and tested then sell it on, hopefully get the money back for the new cylinder head. Nick

Ok there's been a development, iv got the injector out by undoing it from the nozzle, but the nozzle/internals are still inside the old head, iv found that I can get a replacement nozzle of of eBay..... http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=281333296848 Now does anyone know if...

Hi Dave, yes the injector is actually seized in the head so i cant remove it and transfer it over to the new head, the other 3 come out absolutely fine! Yes the car is deffo fly by wire so im pretty positive it is EDC, to be honest im not fussed about "more power" or "tuning" i just want the...

Hi everyone, i started rebuilding the new head for my 300tdi disco, all valves and springs fitted ect and all sensors changed over, also port and polished. the issue im having is that im using the injectors from the old head, 3 of which came out fine but injector number 4 ( rear injector as you...

What's the best chemical to clean up my inlet manifold, it's sorted up to quite an impressive level, I uses to use hyper clean on my Subaru but i have very little dealings with diesels..... Regards, Nick

Thanks for all the help guys I really appreciate it, iv ordered a 1.5mm (3 hole) head gasket and de-coke kit, gonna clean out then port and polish the manifold while I'm doing it

Hi there, Last weekend I had a mate come round and pressure test my engine, found head gasket was totally ruined. So took head off, looks ok but as engine has got 258,000iles on it decided best bet is to sort out head, so ordered a re-skimmed rebuilt head and valves and it turned up this...

Thanks for all the advice, had my mate pop over as he was in the works van on call and he did a pressure test..... Quickly followed by him ripping the head off and telling me he will be back when iv got all the bits. Ordered a re-faced head and need a new gasket, am I right in thinking the 3...

But surely the radiator having no cores ect would cause cross contamination of liquids..... Which I have no evidence of at all....

I changed the thermostat with the water pump yesterday as I assumed that could have and adverse effect on the cooling. Now when it comes to the heater it's difficult to say, the fan for the heater is pretty knackered but you can feel heat coming through once it reaches temperature.... Is there...
