    New Defender

    The use of the fob and the auto reset is a Thatcham Cat I requirement. If you remove this your insurance will be null and void or considerably more expensive, or both.

    Defender Awards

    Lowest number of deaths per 100 accidents of any vehicle. So the EU is banning new ones in 2012 because of their "unsafe" design.

    new shocks needed

    Usual places, shop around for best prices. Paddocks, John Craddocks, Jake Wright, local motor factors that stock Bilstein (Andrew Page up 'ere). Borrow someones LRM or similar mag and price them up off the pages in there and ring whoever has the best price. Bilstein B6 standard length gas...

    Hi Everyone Im Thinking Of Doing A Series 2 Hybrid

    Shirley a 90 chassis requires less fettling (4 1/2"). Some good pics of an S2 V8 hybrid that belongs to a guy round the corner from me on these links Doric 4x4 - Thumbnails Built on a shortened Rangie chassis with rangie axles, brakes, suspension, gearbox, t-box and engine. Just swapped...

    new shocks needed

    Go for Bilsteins - excellent shockers and cheaper than Old Man Emu's. Don't scrimp on DeCarbons, go the extra couple of quid for the Bilsteins as they can be removed and refitted easily without having to track down add ball sized M10 nuts with a 24tpi UNF thread pitch...

    Lancaster Insurance ***READ ME***

    Never do it online, pick up the phone and do it that way. Get a more accurate quote and you are speaking to a human being. I'm with sureterm as I've always used them for Landys - £189 fully comp on me 90 with a 12k mile limit. Bit more pricey for the Rangie, but still less than half the price...

    how do i tell if my viscous coupling is working??

    As the RAVE manual says, when you first start the engine the fan will move and can clearly be heard as the fluid will all be gathered in the bottom of the unit causing drag. Centrifugal force then moves it into the outer chamber after a few seconds and there is less drag and the fan speed...

    spark plug for p38 1996

    NGK BPR6E or 6ES. Either will do, but I run the 6E's in mine as I think it runs better at idle and pulling at low revs. The 6ES's are more expensive and last a bit longer, but IMO don't run as well.

    spark plug for p38 1996

    NGK BPR6E are have the v-groove in the electrode which are supposed to be better for running LPG. They don't last as long as the BPR6ES plugs though.

    Fuel Guage

    The range is calculated from the average over the previous 10 or so miles. So driving hard, accelerating quickly or running round town it will fluctuate quite wildly.

    Smoking question ???

    Could be your injection timing out. Try backing off the fuelling and see if the smoke dies down. If the power goes down a lot, this could be it. Pos is the chap to speak to about this...

    Smoking question ???

    New air filter and run some injector cleaner through it. If it's still bad, could be a bit more serious.

    Defender 90 Oil leak in Air Filter

    It could be the fact that the engine is a recon motor, but was put back with the original cyclone, or without cleaning crud out of the airbox. My 200 has a bit of oil in there, and it's one of many jobs I need to do to clean it out...

    Acsherlee, he's only got n/s door with clasp handle, an it would look daft with a push button still on drivers side. Just checked out price of striker and latch set for those type doors, an about £8 is as much as it's worth after delivery charge...
