I am currently tying to figure out how to get a Saden AC mounted up. It's been a struggle to find JDP10026. I think I have a line on one....I am sure I'll get a "no longer stocked' email soon.

Attached is engine going through overhaul. Estimated about 15k miles on the engine prior to overhaul.

I bet you here's the source. "I tried two torque wrenches set to 30 ft-lbs. All they did was beep and click and I could still tighten the bolt more. Those things don't work."

OP did say that the cab heater will blow warm air momentarily but then it's cold - symptoms of a blockage or air lock. Could it be the impeller on the water pump has come off and is sitting in the housing? This would be a minor blockage and would reduce flow

I meant the cap.

Yes, this or just remove the thermostat and see if the engine heats up still. You can also bleed the coolant lines at the thermostat housing.

Next step would be to check the temps Rad outflow hose. Also, when it's running set up a camera (or have a friend) monitor the hoses and give the engine some quick throttle inputs. You're looking to see if any of the hoses look like they're sort of collapsing on themselves. This can be...

Check the coolant temps upstream and down stream of the water pump with a laser or you can use your hand.

What, if anything, did you do before you had this issue? In other words, did this start happening after a coolant service?

Man I wished had know about this site a few months ago. I would have got a different bumper. Ah well at least I can still get the Disco Radiator Mask.

Guilty as charged and I've go some blue under the front carpets. I'm going to keep the new paint job mostly because I couldn't convince the Mrs. to go back to the blue.

It didn't realize there were so few MPi Defenders. Many second hand T16s are finding their way into Morgans. I'll keep this forum updated on the process and once complete I'll post some videos on youtube. I am 99.9% sure I have an Italian police Defender.

The Rover T16 was used in various Rover Models and it had a turbo variant as well though the turbo version never found its way in to Defenders or Discoveries the best I can tell.

No it has not been run without antifreeze. It does look really nasty. I'll post more pictures once the machine shop has gone through it. If this engine is unsalvageable, this does not seem likely at this point, then I'll be off to get a 300TDI. I really don't want to do this but I am...

MPi going into the machine shop for inspection and overhaul. Preliminary inspections look great. If anyone has MPi questions, feel free to ask. If possible, can one of the Mods add a 2.0 MPi sub forum be added to Engines?

Hello - I saw your profile picture. Is that a Steiger tractor? They use those here in Alaska to transport heavy items in the winter across the tundra.

I don't give up!

Does the spare on the hood (bonnet) make it difficult to open?

MPi is T series ---> T16 engine
