sorry its a 90 and its a new sender it shows full but only goes down 2 thirds of the way on the clock i was thinking it may be resting on one of the tank baffles

I know it sounds stupid but iv run out of fuel yet again and its showing a third of a tank iv changed the tank sender twice now so i thought id ask the experts on hear .which direction should the float point ? forwards or backwards? iv had the problem since iv had the car.

i might try it then .its inly 2 bolts

cheers western

hi i recently fitted 2 disco 300tdi axles to my 200tdi defender and the axle had a counterbalance weight on the front diff can anybody tell me weather it is worth keeping it on or any information about them and what are they called . iv searched google and cant find anything about them but i did see one on a 110 on youtube

got a cortico seal all fitted and sorted now their expensive but when you compare the outer ring to an aftermarket one there's no comparison

hi all I recently changed my chassis and decided to do the rear main seal on the 200tdi engine i used the Teflon seal as id heard good things .i finished the project and filled the engine up with fluids and ran it until it was warm when i looked underneath i was horrified to find oil constantly dripping out of the bell housing . I'm assuming iv damaged the seal getting it in .con anybody give me some of advise on the best seal to fit as I don't want to do it again for a while .

once again cheers western all sorted now thanks to you

cheers western the loom fits well but when i removed the bulkhead i pulled out the plugs from the bulkhead including the one to the gearbox and its the only one i don't have a photo of and i cant for the life of me see were it goes

lt77 to the bulkhead loom .everything else is fitted just the 2 wires (one male and one female )

hi ive fitted a new 200tdi chassis loom and iv forgotten were the reverse wires plug in to .they are both green and i cant find the corresponding place for them . has anybody got any pics ?

i brought one from tool station its through but the chassis block gets stuck every time so i put a camera down and from what i can see there's a plate in the way

can anybody tell me what they have done with the chassis loom on a richards chassis ? iv put a couple through a land rover chassis but im struggling with this one .i think there is a v shaped strengthening plate were the gearbox mounts are i was wondering how you guys got on ?

cheers western your a legend of the land rover world .

hi I'm looking for the part number for the chassis loom on a 1990 200tdi defender 90 if any one can help .

probably will its done 200,000 and you can bet the farmer who had it didn't do much to it unless he had to

cheers reb78 I was hoping to go to Norway next year in it .I was thinking I may need to get the injectors tested

I left the defender (200tdi) running in lockdown for an hour a week to keep the battery topped up .it started to get a bit smelly so took it for a spin and a huge cloud of white smoke bellowed out of the back .it cleared after a mile or so it runs smooth and starts on the button .it hasn't lost any water and burns no oil .there's nothing from the oil filler cap .the turbo is in good shape .has anybody got any ideas ?is it possibly dirty injectors?

ye gathered that's what you ment

I oversprayed the one side of my galvanised turret with the underseal 2 years ago and its not budged so it obviously sticks well

looks fantastic how long did it take for your chassis to turn up? they told me 8 weeks

cheers western iv just found this .the reviews look awesome and its £70 for 5 lt Buzzweld GIO Galv

hi iv just ordered a Richards chassis has anybody had any experiences with painting a galv chassis ? last year I fitted new galvanised turrets and while I was spraying the inner arches I got black hammerite waxoil underseal on them and it stuck like god knows what. is this an option or am I talking carp ? can anybody give me some advise on what they have used and their experiences .I need it painted as my last defender probably got stolen because the galvanised chassis was on show .

who was that from Tim iv seen some on fleebay from uk manufacturers for around £200

hi my turbos in its way out and I was thinking of getting a new core . do I get a standard one or do I go for the upgrade witch spools up quicker . any thoughts on reliability of an engine with a more pokey turbo ?
