Hi Yoshi, Fitted a Kenlowe to my 2.5TD about 18 mths ago. I also fitted an Allard intercooler and lagged the exhaust manifold and down pipe. I was hoping to get better mpg from every mod but apart from about a 10% increase (about 2.5 mpg) what I got was more power, power, power... Now pulls...

Hi Garse, As with wunntenn I have fitted an Allard intercooler to my recently reconditioned 19J. The difference is unbelieveable. Pulls like a train. Trouble is you tend to accelerate faster rather than gain any increase in fuel economy. Six people in it and it'll still accelerate uphill...

Taken from last LRO mag Deflex from Paddock 57.54 + carriage Polybush from Simmonites 89.95 + carriage Both include VAT How long are do intend to keep the vehicle? If longer then 18 months go for quality in my opinion if you 40% off road use.

Hi there, I've always used Polybushes on my Landys cos the guy who looks after mine, and who's knowledge is awesome, reckons Deflex last about a year with any off-roading. Simmonite's near Bradford do the the cheapest mail order price I can find. Polybush give a superb ride but I've not...

my threepenn'th says Polybush every time. Deflex will last you about a year when you go offroading. Polybush are alot cheaper than you think, try Simmonites in Bradford as advertised in the Land Rover mags.

Have solved thi one now. the fact that the front prop moved a quarter turn was OK as the handbrake only works on the rear prop if diff lock isn't on. The problem was that the rear propshaft had seized solid and would not lengthen as the rar axle dropped. This casued the UJ near the rear axle to...

First thing I checked was the breather pipe but that only runs from the top of the tank to the neck of the filler pipe letting out the air as the fuel goes in. The tank becomes pressurised by fuel which should be going to the cylinders under pressure leaks passed this little diaphragm in the...

Morning Grunt, Have now checked again an both UJ's are moving solidly with the propshaft so play must be in one end, but how do I know which?

Hi Grunt, Yep handbrake was on when I checked both props. Even though this has happened it went quite happily up a 1 in 3 lane with 5 people in it but vibrates like hell when not loaded on the road.

My 2.5TD 90 started to judder on putting on the power at 35 - 40 mph. After having a good look around underneath I found that the front propshaft could be turned about a quarter turn when stood still while the rear prop was rock solid. I assume that the rear prop was acting correctly and its the...

Happened to my 2.5TD a couple of months ago but it had been happenning very gradually for the previous 6 months but I got used to it being slower. At about 50 mph in top gear, put your foot on the pedal and it would start to cut out but revived on lifting your foot off. The remedy was a rubber...
