Thanks everyone. One more question. Is a defender 200TDi a different engine to a Discovery 200TDi?

Thanks everyone. Will try and navigate the "Zone" better.

I'm thinking of swapping my 2.5n/a diesel for a 200tdi in my 1989 90. Is it a straight swap? Are there any wiring complications etc. What, if any are the hidden problems? I have been told that because it is an "i" as oppose to a 200td that there could be complications with the wiring.

Easy or not to remove the rear body? I am thinking of removing the rear body of my 90 CSW to get at the chassis for cleaning/preserving purposes. The chassis is in good condition and worth preserving. How do I remove the back and seperate the roof, especially at the front? Thanks Mister

Thanks for that. A friend suggested it may be a sticking valve. Mister

Thanks for that. Had a go at this yesterday and had done as you suggested. The engine appears to tick over ok, not replaced all the bits yet so didn't run it too long. What I did notice however, it sounded like a Norfolk Broads boat (pup pup pup). The noise appeared to be coming from the air...

Hello everyone. New to the "Zone". Just trying to revive my 1989 2.5na diesel. It has been stood for a while. I'm also new to the mechanical work. I reside in France. Mister

Hello everyone, I am in the process of getting my 90 running again. I am at the stage of doing the timing. On the injection pump pulley there are two marks, a"dot" (like on the camshaft pulley and timing belt sprocket) and a"F" with a line next to it. Which mark do I use? It is a 12j 2.5na...
