Yes it’s strange isn’t it, I don’t recall removing them during stripdown and it’s not obvious what function they serve.
I’ll have to give turners a ring on monday

I’m in the middle of rebuilding a disco 200Tdi ti fit into my 110. When ordering some parts from turners I came across camshaft retaining plate locking washers (part number 2995) as they were only a couple of quid, I bought some but I don’t recall seeing them on the strip down and although they are everywhere on the inter web, I can’t find where they go or what they do, does anyone know anything about these?

I’m going to change my station wagon into a truck cab so we could have a deal.
I live in South Wales but I’m sure we could sort something out

How did you get permission to have the beach to yourselves

well they are aftermarket ones but from bearmach, so I asumed good quality?

are the core plugs on a 200Tdi disco the same as a 200Tdi defender?, I am trying to change some core plugs on a disco transplant (12L) but I only have a parts download for the defender version, the core plugs I want to change are on the back of the engine, I have,
ERC 4996 engine x 2 fit beatifully
597586 and 524765, one fits in the block and one in the head, these appear to be too big, they look the same when I compare them with the old ones but they refuse to go in, I've cleaned all the rust from around the hole but still no luck
Have I got the right ones?

ok just took a couple of measurements
first one is from the back edge of the spring mount (The bit that the turret bolts on to) to the front edge of the bulkhead out rigger (with the tape measure touching the edge of the main chassis rail. 385 mm.
if you plonk the outrigger on this mark then the other measurement should tally
from the back edge of the outrigger to the end of the thread on the radius arm 206 mm.
hope this helps.

I would say about £2000

just about to fit a disco 200Tdi into a 110 but when I removed the water pump there was a lot rust inside, so I thought I would replace the core plugs before installing the engine. now which core plugs to replace? I'm happy to relace them all but feel it would only be the water ones that could cause problems, so looking at the back of the engine, there is one small one at the top of the head (water) but there are two bigger ones lower down ( these are the ones that would be a bugger to change with the engine in place)
Now I think that the only core plugs to cause problems would be the ones that hold back water so does anyone know which core plugs do what.
Many thanks.

I had a peep at the mainshaft splines and the transfer box input gear splines today on my 1990 110 and, yep they're worn, the mainshaft splines were also coated in a thick dryish reddish brown paste, so I guess that was made by the mainshaft grinding itself to destruction.
Anyway once I had cleaned it off, the wear was'nt too bad, certainly not as bad as I've seen on other posts. Now the thing is, as mine is one of the UN-drilled input gears and as it looks to have more than half of it's metal left, I was thinking of taking the input gear to an engineering shop and asking them to drill a hole in it so that when I re-fit it, there will be more than a little chance of the mainshaft getting some of the oil, what do you think? one hole or two? and what size hole? Just a thought.

simple answer is to ring them up and ask them, if you don't like the reply, don't buy.

Mav and wunntenn, your absolutly right, proper ones ordered.

I am in the process of fitting a 200Tdi from a disco into my old 110. as part of my preperations I had the injectors from the 200Tdi, refurbished, when I collected them they had new copper washers on them, however they are just plain flat washers whereas the proper part (ERR4621) is a copper washer with a ridge on it, now before I go any further, do the washers HAVE to have these ridges to form a seal or will the plain, flat ones be ok?

how did you do it? cos I'm doing the same.

For a larger container stack some light weight building blocks on the drive or patio to form the walls of a container big and deep enough to take the component. Lay in a sheet of damp droof membrane and then fill with water and salts.
I don't think it would do a chassis though unless the blocks are mortared in place first.
what an effing good idea.

don't use caustic soda, (very dangerous stuff) washing soda, 89p. per bag from asda safe to use and non-toxic.
I've only got one setting on my charger (6 amp) and it works fine.
-
yes I've tried this and it works a treat,I've done lots of small parts and I am looking for a larger container to do my springs, no hard work required just a bit of patience and a quick scrub with a scotch pad and then it's ready to paint.
-
not bought any of their oils but bought some wax oil and some paint, very helpful chaps. I couldn't identify the colour on my 110 so sent them a washer with some of the paint on, they sent me another washer painted with the closest match ( which was almost perfect) and when I was happy with the colour, posted out 5L. plus one airosol, £25 all in. so I can't see you having trouble with any of what they sell.

google "camping municipal" in maison laffite, it's in the st. denis area of paris just a short train ride from all the sites and maison laffite itself is a delightful town.

muchas gracias amigo.

all vehicles registered after March 2001 are taxed (VED) on engine size and emmisions, I'd stick with pre-2001 if I were you
Boost guage
in Discovery Forum
Posted
Please help, I really don’t know what I am doing. I fitted a boost guage yesterday to see what boost I was getting but I really don’t know what I am looking at. Third gear, slight hill, reach 3000 rpm then guage reads1.5 bar.to 1.6 bar.
then what? What is supposed to happen then? Does this mean anything.
