First post! Trying to remove fuel filler cap without a key, I have a suspicious mind,

£21000 for a new four door Discovery Tdi in 1990, just put her back on the road since last using Her in 2008,

I personally think it was a cost cutting exercise by LR deleting the sedimenter from the Defender, Years ago I accidentally poured a complete can of wynns Radiator sealant into my fuel tank because they where the same purple colour as the Fuel injection cleaner, I didn’t realise until the last...

Check the fuel tank sender unit, the pipes corrode and allow air into the pickup for the fuel pump, If you haven’t already I would change the fuel filter, fill with new fuel before putting on will make bleeding it much Easier,

It’s very easy to damaged the outer seals when removing them but it can be done if very careful, I brought some new ones just in case, one needed replacing the other was ok,

Easy option pick your own part,

If it’s from the key barrel it should be 8 rod and 9 clip Mxc3818 and Mxc3175lun respectively,

35 is for the central door locking, if it locks and opens with the central door locking then it won’t be that, I thought you said it didn’t open with the Key ?

You are correct,should have gone to barnard castle :)

You need MXC3818 rod control door locking

First off I would earth out the oil pressure switch to see if that brings on the light, obviously if it does then you need A new switch, If you remove the instrument panel and Mark the relevant bulb holders it very simple to follow the printed circuit back to the multi pin connector to see the...

The best way to check if it’s working correctly is a brake tester roller, any MOT station could do it for a small fee, It would tell you the percentage from to back and if you can lock each wheel independently,

You could also put some ultraviolet dye into the cooling system run it for a day then check with a UV light When it’s dark, might point you in the right direction,

Float needle valve sticking shut, and depending on the carb fitted some have a small inline mesh filter in the pipe Connection on the carb and these can get blocked,

Your question is pretty meaningless without the model and year of Land Rover,

It’s two bolts going through the handbrake lever into two captive nuts welded to the floor,

My guess is it was timed incorrectly when new belt was fitted with bent valves being the result, Ask to look at the head and see if their are any witness marks on the piston crowns,

Heater matrix, water creeping under the carpet insulation, a head gasket can leak in many ways Water into combustion chamber ( water goes out exhaust as steam) and if bad leak it will pressurised the cooling system, Head gasket can blow between cylinders giving loss of power, head gasket can...

Nope, because it’s sealed and no metal to use up the corrosion inhibitors

A few years back my small aircraft engine manufacturer (Rotax) recommended Evan waterless coolant But found because the boiling point was much higher it caused hot spots in the cylinder heads that could cause Pre detonation and piston damaged, they then recommended a change back to 50%/50%...
