Got things in to place now to see which way to go. Turns out someone is taking over Steve parkers gear and is going to be still produced. Now if I fit one of these to my exhaust manifold from Turbo Will the rest of the standard series...

Got the bulkhead painted in a fashion, first time spray painting its not to bad but it will do me. will get it fitted then see if I can get ideas of where I have to run things, had 2 bolts lined up what I thought were for bulkhead but to wide...

Any Exhaust pics of how thy are routed

I kept the series link rods. Well I welded two together. Just visible here, re routed to avoid a repositioned air filter.

A mate has a spare Defender pedal for me to try, also I'm getting a second hand Disco Radiator to mock up and see whats what, might need the Series Rad yet as both can be used from what I've heard

Just to add to this, you don't actually need a Defender throttle pedal. Although this is what I have on my current setup. On my past Tdi Series I used the stock Series pedal and attached a stock Tdi throttle cable to the rod mechanism by the...

Thanks Everyone Did not plan this bloody conversion, I bought it with 200tdi already fitted which was started about 12 years ago then left, did not look in to the ins and outs until after I payed for it, so got to be done now one way or...

Series stat top onto tdi stat housing.

Throttle, defender cable cut down and home made bracket, been on there for the best part of 15 years now.

BTW - the Tdi will run fine without an intercooler, so long as you aren't juicing up the Tdi. But it would be better with one. Lots of options for an intercooler, although factory Tdi ones would likely be the most challenging to fit. Throttle...

This was my write up https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/refurbed-200di-into-series-3-with-fairey-capstan-winch.352946/ Probs a few more peeps on the members projects thread with better exp of fitting it with turbo Agree fit your body parts...

Thanks Everyone, seems there is quite a few different ways to do this, cant weld so making my own exhaust is out of the question. I have heard some use the Disco Rad and some use 2.25d exhaust manifold. Got my bloody head spinning now. Is it...

Starting new thread on this. Some will know I am doing a 200tdi conversion to Series 2. Just finished rebuilding the engine which was stressful enough but basically I have hit a brick wall. Think the rest is going to be much more harder. I knew...

Yours looks great Mate, Nice and clean, Now the bloody hard bit begins getting things swapped about for conversion , just drained all oils in gearbox , transfer box and fairey , gonna top up with new oil today. Then wondering if I should fit...

Sounds very like mine

sounds okay.

Finally got it started, had a bit of trouble with getting fuel running with broken return pipe and stuck banjo bolt . Finally got fuel running to Injectors and it fired up first time. seems to sound good but still not sure.

I know Mate, Need the banjo that goes in it too does not look like that come with it.

Oh Yes Sorry just noticed its attached to that, Its just the end I want thought it was a separate part. Thanks Mate.

Every time I google it they come up but not what I am looking for.

Let me know Mate and how much

https://injectionpumps.co.uk/product-category/spare-parts/bosch-spare-parts/ve-spares/ Might have one.

Be aware that the banjo bolt that secures it on is not a standard bolt. It may look like one, but its not - if you look closely, its got a pinhole, instead of a normal hole. As for the "banjo" itself - you can, im sure, get banjos with two...

Rear of HP injector pump for the fuel I . Spur is for the return form the injectors. I recon this part is still attached to the lift pump And just checked shed and not 1 fitted to an old pump

It is Return pipe back to fuel tank.

Need one of these , for 200 Tdi Injection Pump. looked and looked, but can not find part number, Dont even know the correct name for it. only found the Banjo bolt that goes through it. Anyone know?? Thanks

I hope everything bloody works coz it's on now, 🫣 used big breaker bar with a bit of scaffolding tube fir more leverage and tightened it as hard as I could . Then again I'm not as strong as I used to be these days. So might get my son to give it...

That is pretty much the way I have done it.

Clutch in and engine back on chassis and box. Was just about to tighten the front crankshaft pulley bolt, The book says 340 nm :oops: my wrench only goes to 210, dont think I will be able to borrow one that big, is there another way ? or...

Dont think so Mate, there is no allen bolts but there may be extra holes drilled. but it was mated to gearbox pretty good, Will be putting it back in soon so will find out.
