Bugger! I think I'd read something similar....good new is if true, I'll have time at the weekend to find something else that needs fixing!! 🤣

Hi, On the whole, my 1999 110 runs fine...well I am happy with it anyway. However, sometimes, I have to get the revs high for it to 'bite'. This only happens when I slow down for example, then press the throttle, it goes 'flat'....then I have to either change down into a (not needed) lower gear...

Nah, its all good mate - it was a job and a half though.I would definitely recommend anyone reading this to drop the shocks - those spring compressors, despite doing the job felt very precarious and had they have failed it would have been dangerous!

I admit, my heart sank then!!! Its held on with Blue Tac! But seriously, thats it, the whole kit. I checked out a LOAD of videos and nothing different.

@Anaconda ...besides, that link was for a Defender!!

I was joking, but re' that part No. 17, nope, wasn't there with the kit, not seen that with any of the other kits either??

That was my first attempt, upside down! :rolleyes:

Standard size, Brtipart...

Done, I'll probably drop the shock next time!!! 😰

Good plan! There was already a cut-out on the rear floor to access the fuel pump, but also seen a small cut out on others to access the breather pipe, so if it is the breather, in for a penny and all that, I'd cut another access hole. A blocked breather seems instinctively to explain the...

Yeah, did that at the weekend, all was well - I wonder if it might be the fuel tank breather at fault?

Thanks, the fuel pump priming takes longer than 10 seconds after ignition is turned on. Seems to go in two stage too. 1st a low pitch whine....then suddenly raises the pitch before stopping. If I link the two batteries (T-Link Dual Battery System) the priming sound is high from the onset. I...

Cheers! 🍻

1999 Disco 2 - does this require a replacement wiper motor or is it a relay a bit like on the Defender? Ta!

Yep, they're the ones!

Thanks, I have seen that method. But to be honest, for around £15 squid, I'd rather have a couple of compressors on hand. Having looked at them, the 'Heavy Duty' ones seem like they might do the job.

Thanks, cleaned all the earth points recently. All squeaky clean :cool:

Hi, Can someone tell me what size Coil Spring Compressor I need for the air to spring conversion on my 2001 Disco 2? Thanks....

Good for you 🤣🤣 Just teasing! 😉

I know older vehicles drive a little better and more responsive when 'warmed up'. But how/why would this be noticeable in the amount of play before a throttle pedal responds? When my 110 (1999) starts up it takes a while before the pedal response is what I would expect it to be? Ta!
