What engine was in it before? Could you cannibalise it for parts?

Check valve clearance and all that basic stuff first aswell

Sounds good, do it!

good advice. also, if the OP can’t work this out, there is no hope for future land rover ‘issues’ lol

turbos give the required back pressure. My tdi ran just fine with no exhaust when I rebuilt it

nope. Sometimes they do it, sometimes they don’t. Sometimes they park and sometimes they don’t, and sometimes they sweep down into the gutter. I am waiting until they properly fail then I will replace it all in one go. It will just be worn wheel boxes

Sounds like timing to me and a fuel issue

Doesn’t actually matter with a turbo’d engine as the turbo creates all the back pressure the engine needs - more critical on a petrol motor

You could try it. Keep your old cog in case you want to swap back, could be an interesting mod. although my rack is so worn that sometimes my wipers wipe off the screen at the edges :confused:

Out of interest, apart from the tracker, what other security did you have fitted?

eh? My Land Rover is a PLG and I pay the same for the dartford crossing as my actual car

Aah sorry I misunderstood you, o thought you couldn’t get the bottom thread far enough through the bracket

would be a ball ache you wouldn’t be able to steer it by kicking the wheel with your foot and it would be unbalanced and rock over onto a hub. Layered security is best, you just need to make yours less convenient to nick than the one down the road….
