Hi just spent months with over heating and back pressure problems on a 3.9 EFI V8, it turned out that the bolt we had used in an emergency to lock the viscous coupling had sheared and the fan was freewheeling, so the sleepless nights with worries over head and slipping sleeves seems to be over. Here in Northern Thailand we can easily get up in 30-35 digs. Real solution must be twin Kenlows.

Many thanks Fridge Freezer& First_Fleet will settle down this evening and start reading. BTW excuse the dimm ness but what is the AFM/MAF? The gardner pinched my workshop manual to light his stove over the Autumn so have no ref until I get back to the UK in April Best Regards Siam Mike

Maybe there are some landy heads out there who have crossed this bridge, I seem to be crossing it the long way (and expensive) and still haven't managed to sort out the problem being a rough idle once the motor has warmed up. Whats been done so far is as follows: Cleaned out block, re-faced heads using composite head gasket and new studs. Shifted out the Stepper Motor, new rotor and dizzy cap,new plug leads and plugs (All original) replaced cold start sensor, oh yeah and last and by no means least did a complete rebuild on the auto box. The plot continues, as recently I met one of the Landy Mecs from Bangkok who unfortunately only visits up here once a month and he mentioned that LR have a modification directive that deals with enlarging the port on the stepper motor, as a must for vehicles in this warm region. Any one out there have any idea where I can find this report, or any other constructive comments would be greatly appreciated Best to all from the jungle Siam Mike

Hei Folks, Am having a problem sorting the upper right hand cluster on S 1 Disco, Diff lock indicatorr, charging etc. All bulbs ok, and continuity seems ok along the copper tape circuitry on back of unit. My 92 Classic is no problem as I can shift fuses on the fly, likewise my 109 (40 thyis year) which has been so modified during 25 years of service to His Majestys private police force it functions great on 6 fuses. So hopefully out there a Landyhead will have some info as to where in the myriad of rats nests that hide and harbour the Disco fuse grouping there is a 10 amp Bar Steward waiting for earlly retirement. All help happyly received withe the grace of Buddha. On On- dust and mud all round,make that doubles. Siammike [/size]
