    Newbie here, need advice on slow restoration

    Welcome to the forum! There's a Land Rover show at the Three Counties Showground in Malvern on the 18th and 19th of May. There will be lots of parts for sale plus other Landies to look at. Of course that can often be an annoying and costly pastime as you often see bits you didn't know existed...

    200tdi dropped its oil!

    I never got as far as replacing the leaking fuel hose on my D2. A guy knocked on the door asking if it was for sale, so i put it through an mot, it passed, so i sold the car and gave him the new pipes to put on himself.

    200tdi dropped its oil!

    Or some garden hose. That's what the Disco 2 boys suggest slipping over the fuel lines that go from the fuel tank to the filter and engine bay that sit on top of the fuel tank and wear themselves through.

    Help! Stop Oil Engine Press!

    Modern cars are great and all that, but you can't beat a good old fashioned pressure guage!

    Help! Stop Oil Engine Press!

    Good luck with your treatment. My mate is just getting over bowel cancer.

    200tdi dropped its oil!

    Last time i saw an engine bay like that was after changing my oil and filter at work on YFO and when i got home, about ten miles later noticed some wiffs of smoke from under the bonnet. i opened it and found the bay covered in oil because i'd left the filler cap on top of something in the bay...

    Oil and filter change on 101 with the original V8

    I was just watching a video on Youtube of a guy changing the oil and filter in his early 3.5 V8 Range Rover. The filter on his engine was lower down and screws upwards, you know, like on most normal well thought out engines... Has anyone looked at fitting the Range Rover filter housing? I'm...

    Fuel capacity in a 101 ambi

    To be fair my problem was Redditch Sainsburys, Worcester Sainsburys didn't bat an eyelid when i filled up both cans. She was an annoyingly ill informed jobsworth! It was no real problem as i was in Redditch seeing mates and i work about a mile from the Worcester Sainsburys so i just filled up...

    Fuel capacity in a 101 ambi

    Have you found getting them filled can be a problem? I tried to fill two with diesel before covid and ended up having a argument with a woman from Sainsburys who kept trying to inform me of the law in that you can only use a container made for the use of carrying fuel(Lady, it's a bloody jerry...

    Fuel capacity in a 101 ambi

    Here are some specs: https://www.neal.scot/101/101data.htm I reckon if you are worried about the mpg you probably shouldn't buy a 101. Mine still isn't on the road yet but when it is i'm going to be in total denial regarding the fuel economy. It still has the original 33k kms V8 in it. I'll...

    Early 3.5 Range Rover cruise control?

    Did they come with cruise control then? My old '96 Disco 300TDi had it but it never worked. Apparantly it worked somehow, off the vacuum system. Someone pointed out the pipe that ran along the bulkhead that looked more like raw edge protection sleeving as it was split along most of the length...

    Early 3.5 Range Rover cruise control?

    That reminds me of a chap i used to work with at the bull centre. We had an old 1977 SWB S3 diesel which we had to use for towing the horse box to occasionally go and fetch or return a bull. It had the old hand ratchet throttle. It didn't give you full throttle but Colin didn't mind. He often...

    Early 3.5 Range Rover cruise control?

    Does anyone know if the early Range Rover came with cruise control? I've recently purchased a 1977 101 with it's original V8 still in it and was wondering if the early Range Rovers had cruise control, if i could install it onto my 101?
