  1. lady's & Gent's After reading the comments on here & doing more investigations I found that the earth wire on the gauge had came out of the connector

    so new bit or wire & connector tried it & HAPPY DAZ'S it worked as it shoud. so just got to give it a blow out to see if it stay's in the white & not go into the red,( will keep you All posted) Many Thanks for the help. :):i-m_so_happy:

  2. Here goes then.I replaced thermostate replace temp sender , replace temp gauge, BUT when I put the ignison on the temp gauage goes up to 1/2 way before the engine is started, then as the thing get's warm reads into the red.

    :( I have put a new wire from the back of the gauge to the sender & still no joy. So any ideas/clues would be great.

  3. Gent,s. 2 Put my 10 bob,s worth in.

    I was going along. The same lines as yourself

    But Looking. On Flee-bay I bought a brand new

    RS Cosworth intercooler & it fit,s bang in the middle

    Of the rad space. I had to move the rad 2 the middle of the

    Space.the i/Cooler cost me £101.00 & that was with postage

    So plenty of cash left over treated her to all new silicon hoses.

    Moved a brand new 5 core heavey duty rad £135.00 including pp.

    Into the middle of truck.I/coolerinfront. Pump tweaked & the resualts

    were outstanding. Now the downside. Engine getting very hot,

    & tempature reading high/into the red, on motorway,s so on 1 side gives your

    **** hot performance But that,s the thing You have to live with. :-D

  4. Hi Their,

    Water pump is doing what it should do. Thermostate is also doing what it's meant to do, Tried another temp sender, & still the same reading. NOW am @ a complete loss. :(

    I must admitt, yes I drive it very hard some times But that should not keep the gauge up into the red should it ?I have a kenlow that come on when the motor

    get's up to tempature & then keep's running until I stop the vehical & kill the battery switch Or it's been running for a long time. :( :( :( :(

  5. Hi All. I to am suffering from the same. List I have changed is as follow's. New Rad. New thermo, New Bigger intercooler,New temp switch.for a defener.

    New temp gauge. Shorter stright through exuast & still it run's realy hot. some have said it's because I drive it to hard ??? not sure about that. this is a disco 200tdi engine into a defender, PLEASE HELP.

  6. Hi All.

    Regards,

    Andy. who can't drive my 90 as the screen is badly damaged :blush:

  7. Hi All ,

    I have got a warn X9000i, the fault it has is when you put it in free spool & run out the rope it's fine when U winch in or out under load, the brake don't hold & the drum just free spool out . Or when it's underload the winch does Not hold the vehical unless U hold the clutch / free spool lever in postion ??? any advice would be great. I have been told that you can take it apart & turn the cluch/free spool 180% & that would sort it out .Any ideas or fixes on the fault would be appreciated ???

  8. Hello All & Happy new year .

    My question is I have a defender with a 200 tdi Disco 1 engine in. I have a fabricated down pipe going down to the sump. this is a 200 size exhaust. Now I have bought by mistake/ not knowing they were different a mid & rear side exiting 300 tdi exhaust. so does any 1 know where I can get or even if I can get a front section off a 200 tdi disco 1into a 300 in stainless steel.

  9. Hi Peeps, :D

    Has any 1 put a Td5 rad & intercooler into a standard 200 Tdi ? If so is it a easy job to do ? & is their any benifits

    to changing the items over. eg. is the bigger intercooler on the Td5 better & would it give U more grunt ? than the standard 1 on a 200Tdi. reason for asking is of course cost. Allisport = telephone n0's . Td5 rad & intercooler on fleebay from £45.00 ????

    just asking the question . :wub:
