  1. Hi Guys,

    A friend and i are trying to put a 3.5 Rangie engine in a Disco: http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopi...l=project+disco

    the problem is we cannot get it started. it turns over fine, but there is no spark. we have done all the usual things (cleaned the dizzy cap etc) but there are two wires coming out of the distributer (not the cap) and i have no idea what to do with them...

    So can anyone explain simply how electronic ignition works????!!!! Apologies for the stupidity of my question but who better to ask?! ;)

    Thanks

    Dont think were going to put seats in the back although we could just put a bench in, thinking of putting a series fuel tank in there too.

    Now we've got to move onto grinding the chassis down, oh joy. <_<

  3. Dear All,

    So I'm just going to start a project thread, my freind Dan and i a planning on making a disco twin-cab pickup...

    We got given a rolling Disco shell and wanting a massive simple engine we bought a 3.5 V8 for 90 quid. We'd really appreciate any comments you've got cos we dont know what we're doing half the time!

    The car:
