  4. there was a couple of new twin chokes on ebay last week coing for about £120 the twin webers have got to be better than the std weber / zenith manifolds you may need to get them s/hand. graham _____________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.
  5. Hi everyone does anyone know if 2.5 petrol defender manifolds will fit a 2.25 s111 engine thinking if the twin weber and manifolds is the way to go. graham ____________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.

  7. have you replaced the exhaust down pipe with a de catt down pipe i have just done mine and its great more bottom end and better on fuel even in top gear if i need to accelorate it just pulls and pulls where as before i had to change down. graham ____________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.
  8. Hi guys as the title says my mate has had a few probs with his carb ( zenith copy ) and the weber both carb where brand new and not lasting any more than a year and as the weber being rubbish and the copied version not being as good as the genuine zenith carb was thinking of fitting a different carb webber would be ok but needs to be a different model have looked into the power plus kits but they have gone too expensive any ideas. graham ____________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.
  9. yeh i found that after i last posted quite supprised as it wasn't that long ago they where selling them at £100 maybe £125 defo not £150 but now going for £500 think we will have to experiment with other carbs cos we are sick to the back teeth with messing with webber / zenith carbs. graham _____________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.
  10. does anyone know if you can still get those power plus kits for series landys and how much my mate has got a nacked zenith ( copy ) and it is only 12 months old and the webbers are useless so rather than waste money on buying a replacement carb i.e. webber / zenith he was thinking of fitting a power plus kit instead. the last time i saw them advertised they where around £100 but that was years ago. graham ______________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.
  11. think you are better with the su carb as the webbers are rubbish and the ( copied ) zeniths are not much better think the ones power plus do are 1.1/4" and think you can do more with an su carb even fit bigger su carbs such as rover v8 ones or jag ones for even more power. graham ____________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.
  12. did the de catt down pipe today was well chuffed more power and quite an easy job to do once i got the down pipe to manifold nuts undone stoped it from jurking when driving slowly over speed bumps. graham _____________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.
  13. fitted the quare type heater in today was well chuffed ran the engine up to temp and it was mad hot and i didn't need to change the heater ( cooling pipes ) all i need now is the demister pipes which i will get from lr series when i get paid. graham ___________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco 1 300 tdi.
  14. Hi guys hopefully when i have finnished repainting my s11a swb truck cab on saturday on sunday i can make a start on the heater change fingers crossed. graham ______________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco1 300 tdi.
  15. not sure they may well interchange but the part nos are different. graham _____________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco1 300 tdi.
  16. as it happens they didn't have any in stock so i have ordered one for next saturday as its the only time i can get down there but i just asked them for a de catt down pipe for a disco 1 300tdi they did rattle a part number off but can't remember what it was so hopefully its the right one. graham ________________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco1 300 tdi.
  17.

  19. Hi tonka11a like many others i have fitted defender seats in mine they are an easy fit they are on runners the back rest recline you sit slightly higher and they look good i should have fitted them years ago. graham ______________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco1 300 tdi.
  20. think the best thing i can do is get the sufix number of the tranny box and get in touch with ashcrofts and see what happens as the gearing is defo higher than the std gearbox. graham ______________________ 1962 2a swb 200 tdi. 1997 disco1 300 tdi.
