Gotcha. Thank you very much

Thanks again James. I know my 110 had an automatic cobbled into it before I bought it. Might the difference have come from the t/box possibly being off an automatic? Just curious for the knowledge.

I see. And rotating that lever forward should give the clearance I need by setting the operating arm more forward as well. Thank you James.

From what I can tell the lever on the t/box is in the correct position. It is currently in High range. It moves toward the rear of the vehicle to go into low range. If the operating arm could clear the transmission while pointed down or slightly forward it would work like it is supposed to. but...

My problem is that the arm hits the top of the transmission and won't mount back to the assembly if I mount it so it will pull the t/box lever in the correct shift pattern. The only way i can get it to work is mounting it 180 degrees out and then it is shifting backwards. I don't know if maybe...

Currently high is front and low is back. I try reposition the lever 180 degrees to get it to shift in the correct pattern and I can't get the arm to remount on the splines. It hits the top of the transmission in this position. In the parts manual it has two gear change assemblies: FRC 7941 for...

Hello Chaps, I am trying to figure out how to get my 1988 110 to have the correct shift pattern for the transfer case. I have searched the internet and studied my parts manual and see that the shift arm and corresponding lever were 180 degrees out from normal. My shift pattern is backwards for...

Thank you very much. I picked it up from a gentleman in norther Spain and said it was out of a Disco but not the year. Again thanks for the info.

Hello, Just picked up a new to me 200tdi and the number on the block behind the injector pump say 14L. I can't seem to find that in my travels on the internet. Can anybody shine some light for me. Thank you.

I have enjoyed my time here but it is time to go. I have a hard time adjusting to the "manana" aspect of it. These folks down here aren't in a hurry unless they are getting off work or driving. The lisp makes deciphering words a challenge also. Over all though it isn't bad. I get 98% of my parts...

Just a fair warning, my experience down here with the Santana's is that the Land Rover parts may or may not fit. The early 80's ones like mine (1980) still use Land Rover parts but the ones after 1983ish are a crap shoot. Spain also doesn't really deal in classic vehicle parts so you might...

Can't help you much on the Vin decoding other than to tell you the E is for Spain. Espana. I can offer some assistance as I am here in Spain and have access to the local junkyards if you need me to look at something. I can say that the Santana's I have seen post Series 3 have parabolics on them...

Dr_evil, Have you thought about a header similar to these?http://www.summitracing.com/int/parts/sum-g9060/overview/ Not sure where they would set in relation to the frame but would save you some cutting on the floor board. Current set up would make for some warm feet in the winter though. Also...

I don't have swivels and pins to compare sizes but what about milling the series pin to fit the disco swivel? You probably thought about it but I am curious.

I drive like you do. Take my time and will get there. My little 2.5 is pretty fuel efficient so whenever I can get the fuel level down without draining the tank or taking a long road trip I will check for gauze in the neck.

I have some spoked wheels. Not sure what they came off of as I bought my series with them on. They are 15" wheels. I do have a set of original 16" wheels but can't put them on until I leave Spain. Here are some pictures of mine. Mind you they do require some touch up paint yet. [/URL]...

I will pull the filler neck next time the fuel tank runs low. Only thing that I can see is the chain for the cap. I am amazed that the filler neck enters the tank at the bottom half of the tank, that in itself would seem to make it fill slow. Guess i am just too used to Chevy's and Fords

More questions for you guys/gals: I can't tell of any modifications but this is a 1980 Series 3 109 but has a full size window instead of the split. Is this a normal thing or a Santana thing? I need to replace it and would like to get one of the heated windscreens as next fall it will be in...

nothing like that in the neck that I can see.

Is the insert up close to the cap end? Nothing in it as far as I can see down the neck.
