In that case batt should have survived.

You will need to chop that cable near the drum for a chance of movement, you will need a new one anyway. Hope you disconnected batt real quick.

Did you look to see if it stopped smoking when any of the injectors was cracked?

Another choice could be a refurb of the one you have, there are several company's out there. Foley's is one. As yours is looking pretty well looked after likely it would be at lower end of price scale. I drove many different 4x4's as a Coastguard rescue officer [ we only had SWB landy's] My...

Explain "Ist split" when bolted back on.

We like to know what the result is do we not?

This is another "shame on Land Rover" thing. Series 3 had a nice cast arm/fork with bush in it. Changed to that pressed steel arm in later models. Do check condition of pivot as well, I had one that had worn to a point.

Do not loosen injector, it will not give any test result. I was once trying to remove an injector that was stuck and usual pulling had failed. I had taken nuts off and then forgot to put heavy canvas over engine to catch the injector when engine was turned over. It did an Elvis and left the...

Over here one can get a basic diesel compression test kit for about 30/40 bucks of your notes. Pretty straight forward, disconnect stop solenoid so engine will not start. Fit gauge to an injector port using one of the adaptors in kit [or on some engines to the glowplug hole, not recommended...

Cooper Tyre's have a good range.

The thread in the hub can be repaired. Thread repair kits are available and are pretty basic to use. One need to know size and type of bolt you have. Plenty of info on line about "how to" see the you tube.

Pretty sure injectors for the 12j engine are all the same. As they have been rebuilt and things still the same time for a compression test to see if a cylinder has an issue'

It could be a duff injector, to test crack off each in turn, engine will run a little rough. A faulty one cracked off will make little difference.

Looks a well gone motor. Tip. When new one arrives it will likely be set up for LHD vehicles. A bit in the back needs to be turned 180 degrees so that wipers parc in the correct place for RHD. Can not remember exactly what without looking in one, been a while. Someone here may explain.

GPS signal can have some delay so make comparisons over some distance at constant speed.

You have to turn the whole motor unit around 180 degrees to be able to open the back plate on the wiper unit itself. Then you can lift the spiral cable fitting [ square bit with hole] off its spindle on the drive arm and take the motor unit away.

I had similar issues with my 1990 Ninety, after messing about some came to the conclusion that the cable from the ignition switch to the starter relay was duff [at first it was intermittent] As it is buried in the main loom I just disconnected both ends and ran a line direct from ignition switch...

You have to remove the tin back plate [several small bolts] to release the spiral cable. Release wiper motor from bulkhead and rotate it for access.
