There is nothing on the Ninety, I'm not sure they actually had them. Maybe the petrol version had one?

Baby Bay near Polzeath down in Cornwall.

Very nice, what beach is that?

Yes, typical nonsense from Land Rover. My son has factory fitted CDL on his.

Great, so in reality unless it's in an actual branded box (Delphi for example)then the item is just a cheapy regardless of whatever random letter it has at the end?

High and low are of little consequence of the CDL. I presume on a D2 you would have to fit a new linkage and lever if you didn't previously have a center diff lock.

So, the chances are the OEM or G (which is just made up nonsense unless it is in a Land Rover box) is no different than the cheaper version 🤔

Same thing, sensor unit. Have you actually checked the temperature ?

Well Lynall that seemed to have done the trick ! Much appreciated my friend. I drained the system again, filled with your method exactly , and now I have heat before thermostat opens . Took it for a short drive and no over heating . Will take...

Well I guess it all depends on your mot tester, put it in for a mot and see what happens or book it in for a emissions test. That is the only way you will get a real answer.

Yes run perfect and that's what I've put in vdo one

I don't think anything happened at all.

You could check fuel pressure if you buy a guage, will be a thread about it somewhere. Did it run fine before it broke down? We fitted a vdo pump which was £320, Land Rover a couple of hundred quid more.

They have a throttle stop which is a threaded bolt you wind in and out. If you have been messing around with your injection pump you will have seen this. Wind it in so it will only do 2000rpm if you are worried. If you are really worried then you...

Yes thats the thing, bit stressful thinking what if it went wrong but it all went OK.

Son had 3 Amigos which we fixed doing the shuttle valve mod. Strangely it turned into 4 Amigos once, I hadn't plugged a cable in near the ABS pump! We have Foxwell and it diagnosed the above fault and MAF sensor using live data.

Could be injector seals/washers. Could be fuel filter or housing. Or fuel pressure regulator. If it was running fine before pump died and now it doesn't then it may still be pump related, especially if it is a cheap one. My son had an issue...

Only managed to take it up and down the lane but early indications are that it has gone. As I've got it, I'll change the front over over the next couple of days as I'd assume it's in similar condition, but looking good.

On a quick look this plug goes to the heater fan I think? So for diagnosis can I use the green wire for a live and black for earth?

The closed length is different, as the axle moves the prop will lengthen or shorten. If not going off road it might not matter so much.

Good, presumably the noise has gone?

Are they both fully closed, look like different lengths

I used 2mm on the Defender, I guess some areas, suspension mounts may well be 3mm.

Welcome to the forum I haven't used them. You might get some better advice if you gave a bit more information on your problem.

One thing I found is if the bulb was loose in the holder due to poor tolerances a couple of well place matchstick would solve the issue.

Girls probably thought you were a **** and rightly ignored you. On the upside maybe they made some money on their TOKTIK video.

I just checked and we have been using Britpart cheapest aswell. They are a bit poor but since they are not safety item it doesn't really matter.

This was also my experience before swapping to LED. I treated them as disposable and when a bulb blew replaced the whole unit for fractionally more than just new bulb! Fog lights were the worst for it and required a good strip and clean before...

What situation are you in exactly? Have you started it and got stuck? Have you got a chassis? Have you decided you can't do it before you started it?

Seems the only option is Britpart at about £70 or Land Rover at £900. Anyone tried a Britpart part one? God knows why I'm asking as there is no hope in hell I am buying genuine!
