MGF hydraulic slave cylinder mounts never fail - but they have a different design to the Freelander. I've not done enough research (i.e. none) so I don't know whether the MG clutch release system can be used on the Freelander?

As I recall, if the wheel has dimples between the wheel stud holes, you have a wheel that will fit - as a rule of thumb, this works pretty well (although, as with all rules of thumb, there are exceptions!)

Not sure what the problem here is, but may be worth flushing the gearbox, IRD and diff and replacing with fresh oil, if only for peace of mind? The breathers on our Freelanders are very low - I am sure someone somewhere will have made breather extensions - anyone have any links?

I really do think that someone should think about remanufacturing these along worth the 3 door parcel shelf with is also rocking horse @&£* rare

I think you're in a situation that many of us will be finding ourselves in soon :( Heat recovery system sounds interesting - hope you can share your plans?

Now that will have come with a HUGE sense of achievement! Fantastic news - well done! :D

I think that is the difference between an OEM manufacturer and some unbranded parts that you don't know the source of... could be good, could be a disaster. Not worth the risk in an engine.

Yes, most definitely. A wise decision I think :)

Gulp! Chinesium cylinder rings? Fingers crossed!

That's super strange. I am not familiar with this engine - is this a direct injection engine with injector ports close to the water jacket and head gasket?

I always like a silver lining like this! :D

Crumbs - why a new cylinder head Nodge?

I agree. Super difficult to get a Payen BW750 gaskets these days, so the DMGRS alternative may be the best route presently.

Liner drop is not such a big problem in my experience, but it is true that the liner may not have a 2 thou stand-proud that you will need if you plan to use a multi-layer head gasket - and if that is the case, the elastomeric Payen gasket is definitely the one to go for. :) I personally have...

Well, I guess that’s one solution for not having the correct key for the back door! Lol hope you can get new barrels - much more secure for sure!

(Don’t ask what £&@* ups I’ve orchestrated over the years…)

Don’t worry - that’s all part of the fun of working on and modifying engines! Lol

Strange that they are not concentric: they'd presumably have been like that from the factory? Changing the valve seats is not something that I've attempted - generally this is a task you hand over to a machine shop.

Completely agree - this is a brilliant little tool - made pipes for the servo to ABS pump on my MG - perfect each time and made the brake pipe forming a pleasure!

Looks like copper - but mine looked the same - and I also ordered kunifer…
