    Quick soundproofing question!

    Thanks! So that's 7,5m2 for bulkhead, seatbox, doors and roof? I thought 10m2 should be enough for me, but I guess it has to be a bit more then....

    Quick soundproofing question!

    Quick soundproofing question!

    Hi guys! Quick question! I built a new flatbottom seatbox and stripped down the bulkhead for the 110 hardtop. Now I'm at the point of ordering Kilmat 80 sound deadening, but how much would you reckon I need? The tub/back bottom is already lined with 12mm Dodomat, so I am only gonna do bulkhead...

    Chassis number / VIN trouble!

    Different station, different inspector and most off all, somebody that knows Land Rovers! He also wasn't very happy about his colleague who did the first inspection!

    Chassis number / VIN trouble!

    Hi guys! I've been googling my ass off, but can't find any useful information! My '88 one-ten has a not-so-straight number stamped into the chassis, with british leyland logos at start and end. A few weeks ago the car was re-imported into the Netherlands and with the check to get new plates...

    Imploding Fuel tank

    Done and fixed! I just combined the bits of advice of dag019 and mick the builder. Put the hose of my tire inflator pistol in the pipe and closed it with a rag, then gradually built up the pressure and within seconds the tank came back to its original form! The took apart the new filler cap and...

    Imploding Fuel tank

    Thanks for the input dag! The fuel cap is just a standard black version, don't know what that means for venting.... I finally got the landy back to my workshop yesterday, so i'll start working it today. I'll pressure test the filler cap to check the vent. Furthermore, i'll try to bend the...

    Imploding Fuel tank

    There is, but as Rougharse Racing states out, it is blocked. Been thinking of connecting that with a non-return valve to a pipe somewhere around max-wading height. That way i'm sure to have sufficient tank breathing!

    Imploding Fuel tank

    Yes, me too! I guess it's safe to say the pump is in good working order! :D I'll bring her to the my workshop today and start a full system check. Including cap and breathers!

    Imploding Fuel tank

    Haha, no i'm not! The car has been out of my care for about 2,5 years. It's been at a porsche garage for the last 1,5. They've connected new filler/breather pipes, filler cap and fuel lines in the motor compartment. This to swap out old lines and accommodate for a webasto diesel heater. I'll...

    Imploding Fuel tank

    Hmm, I think i'll just unbolt it next week and re-check the whole system. Maybe even install an auxillary breather. Am not really waiting on this happening somewhere remote! Thanks for thinking with me people!

    exactly that one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Locking-Fuel-Cap-suitable-for-Land-Rover-110-Defender-1987-99-200Tdi-300Tdi-V8-/283466083415 It has the little dent-out hole in the metal backplate, but i din't find any air channel leading to the great big outside world....

    Imploding Fuel tank

    Already took it apart yesterday, but couldn't find a breather hole. That being said, the filler cap is brand new. This was the first trip outside of the garage!

    Imploding Fuel tank

    I don't think so, i just had a look under the car again and, as i didn't build it with one, there is no bash plate. That would also mean the drain plug is attached to the bash plate and wouldn't explain the buckling on top of the tank... So, i don't think that's the case.

    I was hoping that was gonna happen, insteda no sis or his and the tank kept the same shape...
