Fuel Senders.... are any decent?!
Bowie69 replied to andy.cowman's topic in Defender Forum (1983 - 2016)
Assume it is catching on the insides of the tank -perhaps it just needs a bit of adjustment? That or the 'float' doesn't. -
The wiring specs are on that page, lower down

Rover v8 4 year old oil mint condition ?
Bowie69 replied to mad_pete's topic in Defender Forum (1983 - 2016)
It's not ideal, but will you notice? -
Elementary, my dear Charles.

You could connect two diodes to the 'on' outputs, and connect them to to the trigger of a relay. Then use the NC connection in the relay to power the buzzer. When the switch is in either of the on positions, the relay will be triggered, turning the buzzer off. Make sure relay is powered by ignition live though

Just not really needed on a vehicle regularly serviced by a garage.

Part number - gear knob insert?
Bowie69 replied to Chicken Drumstick's topic in Defender Forum (1983 - 2016)
I couldn't find one when mine fell apart, I took the opportunity to buy one of the retro coloured ones you can get on Ebay.... -
This statement is worthless without pics.

According to Ashcroft, each of the LT77s are different ratios, military, early 110/90 and RRC disco are different.

Also, nothing to stop you digging in the whole workshop....

A sunk lift is OK, but if you are planning on rolling hoists or jacks around in the same space it becomes a massive pain.
-
The Lc1 and LC2 use different sensors, so be aware of that, I forget the nomenclature, but it is clear when you start looking as the plugs are different. If it works and gives a reading then it will be fine, I've certainly had one in a box for 5 years and it worked fine on first switch on, just remember to calibrate it in free air.

1993 Defender 110 Station Wagon
Bowie69 replied to Stinkfloyd's topic in Defender Forum (1983 - 2016)
It may melt at 420C, but I bet you the tank is hotter than that for dipping. -
Don't forget your CTIS....

As usual 9 or 10 steps ahead. Cue pictures of a beadlock ring welded in place, and remaining 9 rings just waiting to be installed.
-
Run at 10 I reckon you will be on the money there... Time for beadlocks?
-
Technically not legal for UK, I believe.
-
You should be able to swap the drive out of the 1.4 box and it will be the same as it was before?
-
I guess that's what happens when you mess with nature on a large scale - unintended consequences.
-
The sticky almost felt like plasticine..... Be good to see them with a bit less pressure in them.
-
I think Sid is quite a bit wider than the 110....
-
Gonna be a struggle getting between a trees.... but I suppose you can just drive over them.
-
Agreed.
-
More likely to be a tube frame very lightweight thing...
-
Well, it is a quattro.... Don't think I haven't though about building a 5 cylinder turbo independent suspension buggy... FWIW it had hydro boost from factory, but too expensive to fix when it went wrong, so runs a normal servo now.
