  1. Pointer is the rotor arm? I have used a strobe to see the degrees and it was far away before TDC. I want to adjust it to the correct degrees depending on the engine that i have 36D. It was running perfectly but i have removed the distributor without marking it. I know it was wrong but let us consider that I’ve checked it and had to adjust it. I’ve searched and found many answers some say 4 degrees BTDC others 6-8. When i change the degrees the idle rom changes and i read that it should be between 500-550rpm. Mine is around 650-700. I can also change the rpm from the air intake. so I’m pretty lost. Just want to do it right for maximum power and best fuel consumption. Also I suspect that the reference plate of the TDC is tilted a litte to the left side.

    Thank you

  2. Hello

    i just saw that the engine on an 1993 rrc that the engine is 36D with different ratio than the previous one. I just don’t know the dynamic timing degrees to set it to. Does any one have an idea on how many degrees should it be. The engine is a 3.9. Any test that I should do to know the optimum degrees?

    Thank you

  3. Hi everyone 

    i need your help with the side mirrors on a rrc 1993.

    they only go up and when i try to move to the left i can hear a click on both sides even when i choose the other mirror. I checked the buttons and the wires and i didn’t find anything. I’m not sure about the wires on the back of the motors, it is indicated by color for example black, white.. but they weren’t placed by colors. I tried to put them by color but nothing worked. I have disassembled the buttons and the mirrors and i can upload the images of each component. Any idea where the problem could be or the wiring diagram of them? 

    Thank you.

  4. I have no abs and i think that the problem is the discs or the pads or both. Brake fliud haven't been changed in many years maybe never been changed. I used the second going downhill but you will have to use brakes for the curves. Either way I thinking of installing an abs pump but from a performance company because some of my friends had a lot of problems in the original pump.

  5. I live in a town in Lebanon with a lot of downhill roads. Lets say im going down the mountain it's a 10-15 minutes drive and I'm using the brakes regularly i will reach the end of the road with no more brakes. About 2 months ago when slowing down to a full stop it was shuddering a lot I skimmed the front discs and changed the brake pads, now it's shuddering again that's why im thinking of upgrading the discs. I will post some images of the brake  discs and calipers. I'm the second owner maybe when it was with the first owner they changed the disc and by mistake they installed rear disc(solid) instead of vented but i know many RRC owners who have the same problem and one with a discovery 1 he changed the brake oil to dot 5 and still suffering from the same problem. Thank you guys for replying.

  6. They are not. I don't have abs either. When heated i push the paddle all the way down to slow down a little, if i want to stop it will take a lot of time. I think it's a common problem, many suffered from it. They even told me to change the brake fluid to dot 5 higher boiling temperature than dot 4. Any suggestions? Thanks 

  7. Hello i have a 1993 range rover classic and the brakes overheat when used a lot. I read some comments about upgrading the disc to vented, grilled, slotted. Everything still stock. I want to know if I upgrade them will the problem be solved? If it works can anyone give me part number or brand name that have the kit that fits perfectly. Thank you all.
