Naw...my DNA is Rhodesian and does not like coldness...

I did pal,rebuilt the old beast which i finished last year. Just done the head gasket and gave the block a good flush,radiator too and new heater matrix and bled the system as per manual and its still pretty poor,its a bugger. Heater box was stripped down and rebuilt too...land rovers eh

Yeah, mobile cold store if you ask me! I’ve got bits of soundproofing/lagging everywhere. Tried every trick in the book to get the beast to warm up(300 tdi 90). Warm air just demists the window…just🤬. I made my peace with the green monster and just accept it’s cold city when on the move…Norfolk...

As above. Try paintman panels. Great quality, only place I’ll go now. 👍

Had same issue as you. Did basically what Miktdish has said above. It worked. Had wrong sensor put in. 👍

Cracking effort your putting in there, well done.

Are you a wummin? :)

Well done getting your 110. Enjoy it.

If you take the water pump, power steering pump, just unbolt it and push to one side to make room and take the support bracket off you will get down to the p gasket. 2 second job to change. Didn’t take me too long to get down to it. Get a replacement from turners. It’s better than original. Give...

Hello mate. Good hard sharp tap with the spanner going clockwise to loosen. Maybe lever a piece of wood on one of the other pulleys to stop engine turning. 👍

Temp sender is a thermo resistor- need to match it to the engine. Put a new sensor in my 300 tdi and it went off scale. Old one back in just fine. Complicated beasts eh.

Engine crane…decent set of tools…Haynes manual…Land Rover forum to ask questions…good safety practices…careful sourcing of quality parts…bit of common sense…nothing you and your lad couldn’t do. I’d get stuck in if I were you guys…git some!

Naand Meneer, I used to have a 90 with this engine, what you describe is normal as far as my experience goes. They are smokey old lumps anyway. Blue smoke on start with mine would go away quick when the engine warmed up, going down hill same deal with a bit of smoke, wondered if a bit of oil got...

Euro car parts sell a OBDII scanner for under 20 quid...worked for me.

If you’ve got a bit of a Land Rover that’s working…just leave it 😂

Went back and looked at my old pump. the piston has about 3mm of play back and forward in it. Hate to say it but that loud ticking could be a head gasket. Your describing the same sound I had and the head gasket was blown at the back of number 4 cylinder. I put my hand round the head and could...

Thats funny, delivery guy that brought my rebuild stuff was there so often he knew more about land rovers than me...dude was even coming in for his coffee on a saturday.

Ok. I did mine when it was getting rebuilt so it was easy to fit. Even doing it to yours wouldn’t be the worst job in the world. Just a bit of a dig to get to it but the actual column out- new one in was no time at all and worth doing. I much prefer the old style wheel. I managed to find a...

Short ones were issued to infantry…long ones were on the motors.

Not bad. Chassis looks spotless bro.
