    What have you done to the rear of your 90/110?

    I have just bought these for the back of the 90 MUD 90 Side Panel Trim - Interior Trim - Products I have not fitted them yet but they look very good in the box. I know they are expensive but they look like they should of been fitted from the factory. Kev

    Disco 2 died

    If there is any water in the fuel system it can freeze and cause a blockage. My money would be on a filter! Kev

    Disco 2 died

    When was the fuel filter last changed? I know they normally cough splutter and just won't rev when the filter is blocked but a new filter is cheap and easy to change. You have got to start somewhere. Kev
