    Buying a V8

    There are a few things that govern the running speed.... Throttle position sensors, temperature sensors, idle controls etc Could be the reason its running fast. The tapping as Discool said could be minor like the manifold bolt being loose / injector problem, which are quite minor to Camshaft...

    Buying a V8

    If as you've said, 'I'm not technically minded' I'd agree with your head & walk away. As Marjon says its a long way and you're already in a bit of doubt about it. There are better ones out there, you just have to look really hard & consider your budget for buying & maintenance as even the...

    Buying a V8

    How many miles has it done, what year is it, has it had any work done on the engine / any history with it??? The tappety noise could be a sticky Hydraulic cam follower tappet, or a worn camshaft, which can be a common occurance on a higher mileage V8 (i did mine at 75k). Or even possibly a...

    Disco 1 V8i fuel pipes (JA chassis no)

    There is quite a good write-up on this site, on how to do it. I'm thinking of doing something like this myself soon as the fuel filter is so rusty trying to rmove it will undoubtably result in the pipes breaking. http://www.rustylandrovers.com/2017/03/19/discovery-3-9-efi-fuel-line-replacement/

    My wife is very ill- tested positive cv19.

    I went for my 1st jab 2 months after my Pulmanory Embolism & no one even asked about my past recent health. I mentioned that I'd had Covid related PE in Jan & they stabbed me anyway with the AZ jab. Had no ill effects so went for my 2nd one at the beginning of the month & no effects from that...

    Key barrel rebuild

    It is possible to do it your self, I have done it with my D1. You will need to strip the barrel down to its componant parts i.e. the wafers. I had a few spare barrels so I nicked the wafers from those too so that I could get a proper match to the key, You just need a little patience to select...

If I slowly push the button in until I hear the 'click' the light on the switch comes on & the fogs come on, then if I push it again half way down till...

    Disco 1 More Electrical Gremlins!

    Rear fog lights being a pain now, thought it was the switch changed it but no, still not having it! If you turn on the rear fog lights then want to turn them off they won't switch off, the light on the button goes out, but the lights on the rear stay on. Press the button again & the lights go...
