it will more than likely have to be with landyzone courrier service due to me not having an overdrive and at the moment time nor the money to do anything with the series and with the family crisis ive gotten meself involved in may take some weeks to settle down :doh:

ere honnolulujoe what plans have you got for yer old bulkhead ??

bout yer injectors dont bother forking money out for someone to test them for you as its not nessecary ....you have all the injector testing **** youll ever need under yer bonnet just pipe the injectors up while theyre aiming skywards and not in the block and use the crank handle to turn the...

dont you fekkin start or ill just do an all nighter and have it running for the morning ;)

bit of a fookup today has caused me atleast another days work on her took the skew gear out again so i could start from scratch with the whole timing thing again and disaster struck the drive shaft for the oil pump that slots into the bottom of the skew gear lifted out of the oil pump to...

well thats my little bet lost i was hoping to have this black smoke problem sorted before they stopped the vatican chimney doing the same thing

right its stealth and witt over brute force then get a good heafty screwdriver under the injector wing on one side and twot the top of the injector with the mallet towards the side your levering against ( short sharp twots not bleddy gert whacks ) eventually youll get the bugger rocking...

gonna booger off te bed me now coz things may be better being a new day and all that bisniss night chaps :D

i cheated then coz i put a screwdriver in the oil filter hole under the grubscrew hole to lever the shaft up while feeling for the allignment then jammed the bush with the needle while i push the skew gear back down to the bottom but the first time i put the bugger in i spent ages trying to...

found a bit of a knack to ligning the hole up i noticed as i lift the skew gear it rotates taking the bush with it and by using a feeler needle to hold the bush still while i push the skew gear back down i can eventually inch the bugger round till i can feel the hole lined up with the grub...

no i set the timing to TDC on flywheel with both valves shut on pot 1 and fitted n set the DTI on the exhaust valve on that pot and kept the feler gauge in that rocker to remove the slack then set the gauge plunger on the top of the nearest head bolt set the dial needle at zero after 1 full...

same position bottom up but i never checked top down hmmmm :scratching_chin: if its shorter top down can i shim it up with something like a spacer ring or is that a bloody stupid idea

as the original chain was stretched on the top side ( drive torq side of the sprockets by 1/4 link in 30 ) i simply moved the cam sprocket forward slightly ro compensate for the new chain being that bit shorter wich seemed to work and check out fine with the DTI ( brand fekkin new gauge )...

by fooking about and tweaking the pump that was the best i managed to get the fooker to do but the acelleration was crap like it had a manhole cover for a flywheel :rolleyes: thing is last time i ran it with the new valves guides tappets and evrything else it sounded sooo sweet not a single...

not for want of telling anyone how to suck eggs or cause offence in any way shape or form but discussions about bores pistons compression ratings and all maner of things at the same time as whats currently on the table can cause confusion and doubt in any persons mind who is on the verge of...

hold on a minute why the hell am i discussing the bore size and pistons when all im trying to do is get me head round where the hell ive gone wrong with nthe timing after taking the slop lift andf backlash out of the bastid spew gear ( appart from them being in the same injun as me current...

gems the story with the pistons is theyre 60 thou up so i had a fella thats been re-boring engines for over 30 years bore the cylinders to match the pistons within the tolerances in the genuine landrover engine builders technical manual wich he did a little on the tight side to compensate for...
